    The Ariston you have may not be on-demand but storage type, sir....otherwise you won't have that chance to replace the element. The on-demand ones are electronic, the storage is primitive electrical.

    Not sure if heating element nga yung pinalitan basta the thermostat stopped working, called the warranty guy, came over and fixed it. Same config siya as my Stiebel Eltron (i.e. takes water from the shower water pipe and outputs it to the shower head). Looks something like this:

    That's indeed an Ariston on-demand similar to your current Stiebel, sir. Common faults are caused by calcification of everything...from the trigger, to the flow restricting tubes & the heating element. Once clogged, there won't be enough volume nor pressure to make the heater turn on.
    You guys up north aren't on limestone bedrock like our neckodawoods. Water here is super hard. Softeners are a necessity to keep plumbing in constant good service. The on-demand won't have your luck nor half the longevity here.....I hope you can pardon the drama, sir.[emoji120]

    Note: Bosch & Ariston share a few identical storage heater models.

    Our Joven 2000 heater finally gave up after ~15yrs.

    New heater installed is Alpha brand. I did some mods to make it work even under low pressure/flow of water.

    Champs Aston I have each in my 2 shower rooms at home. Because water flows to it which a conductor and leakage prone, I choose mechanical than heaters with digital components.

    We (aka my wife) chose Lecston primarily because it wasn't plain white like most other brands in its price range. Getting a free rainfall shower with it helped seal the deal.

    Malupit yang joven 2000 na yan. Sa amin muntik na ata umabot 20years. Nagleak wala ng parts. Mura lang yung part na yun pero hindi nagstock yung dealer kasi nirerequire sila bumila 1000pcs. Eh ang tagal masira matetenga yun.

    Bale bago na din shower namin pero joven pa din. Iba na daw parts ng bago mas matibay daw yung joven 2000. May ini-explain yung technician bakit daw matibay yan. Maghahanap ako sa aliexpess baka may mabibili baka sakali meron eh another 20years ulit.

    oo mura parang 2,500 or less pa nabili decades ago.

    Ito itsura nyan nakita ko sa yahoo image




    Kahit ondoy level baha as in lumubog yung shower heater eh ayos pa din. Pinalitan lang ng parts na worth under 300pesos.

    And gusto ko yung temperature nyan kasi matitimpla mo talaga direcho lang yung rotate ng dial. Nacompare ko yan sa ibang shower pag tulog ako sa bahay friend ko eh yung sa kanila eh pag rotate may click-click so yung init hindi gradual changes, either bitin sa init or over init.

    Ang nakakainis naman kay joven malaysia eh alam nila matibay eh biglang tinigil pagproduce ng model na yan.

    Pansin ko din sa malls wala joven. Matibay kasi so hindi mapapabili agad.

    Ang bulok na brand yung champs trimark( pero hindi ako yung gumamit, nagtanong sa akin ano maganda shower heater so inadvisan ko joven)
