I think out of all the crap that comes from china these hot water heaters are one of the few quality/price items that are made good . I got one for my build but think if i put one in the house i could save tons of cash instead of a hot water tank useing fuel when waters not needed ....

Hi. Can you please help me. I've just bought one of the heaters from your video. Can you tell me about the gas tank regulator. Is it 28mbar or 37mbar? And are you using butane gas or propane lpg gas? Please can you help me with this. Cheers

Official answer: No Real world answer: If you had it flued out properly and installed by a proper gas technician then I don't see why not, but you'd be hard pressed to find a gas tech who'd be willing to put their reputation in the hand of a cheap Chinese water heater. It's really a case of making your own mind up, and that's only if you're the only person you're potentially endangering.

@ffilmpalmer8498
2 жыл бұрын
For those asking; they’re not waterproof, and the gubbins inside are made of very cheap steel and chinesium. I wouldn’t recommend keeping this completely uncovered outside like I did with mine (although to be fair it didn’t seem to affect how well it worked, it still provided hot water but it was very rusty). What I would suggest is maybe keeping it in your garage or shed in the dry, and then every time you want to fill up your spa, just hang it off the back of a chair, hook it up and use it as and when. In terms of cost, a 14kg bottle of gas will probably last you around a year or so if you used it a handful of times a year, and they’re around £25 the last time I checked. With energy prices the way they’re going now, I’d say relying on electricity to heat it up could result in a cost of £10 a time from cold to warm, so this represents a WAY cheaper option (and you can take this little unit camping too, so it’s handy for more than one reason). Mine is now installed full time in my camper van and it really feels great knowing I have a boiling hot shower in the van no matter where we are, better than relying on the lottery of campsite shower blocks!

Year update: WOW, didn't realise I'd had so many views and comments, I thought this video had been forgotten about. Anyway, I did in fact leave the unit out in the garden since this review, to mainly fill my hot tub up. However it hasn't been used in a very long time so I may give it a quick scrub and see how it's held up against the elements in that time. Watch this space for a new video!

Mine worked fine after being outdoors all year with no cover. It was a bit rusty on the screws but the inside looked fine. However, I fiddled a little too much with the knobs and that messed up the gas regulator so it would only produce luke warm water at best. Threw it out, bought another (which is installed in the van, nice and dry).
