My initial thoughts are that the system appeared to be of good quality for the price, it was replacing a glass type heater that lasted almost 10 years. During the heaters operation I never had any problems but it was switched off over summer and now that it has cooled down again I attempted to switch it back on but just received an audible alarm.
The presence of the alarm is a great feature however it was unfortunate to find that the heater element had what appears to be a rust type substance protruding from the plastic end of the element. Hopefully this is a one off, or the issue has been resolved but I might just have to dig a little deeper for the replacement as the potential of replacing annually puts a different perspective to the purchase price.
