6. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and efficient operation of your Ariston Quadris WiFi 120L water heater.
- Steatite Heating Element: The steatite resistance limits scaling, allowing for maintenance without the need to drain the tank. However, periodic inspection by a qualified technician is recommended to check for any build-up.
- Magnesium Anode: The tank is protected by a magnesium anode. This sacrificial anode corrodes over time to protect the tank from rust. It should be inspected and replaced periodically by a professional, typically every 1-2 years depending on water quality.
- Anti-Bacteria Function: The unit automatically performs a complete heating cycle to 65°C at least once a month to prevent bacterial growth (e.g., Legionella). Ensure the unit remains powered for this function to operate.
- General Cleaning: Clean the exterior of the unit with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
For detailed maintenance procedures, consult a qualified technician or refer to the full technical manual.
