  Bosch HydroPower

Useless product installed by rip-off company – Will not maintain a constant temperature. Varies greatly with ambient temperature. Can't use "water miser" shower head. Fiddling with the flow/temp adjustments just moves the

problem from the kitchen to the bathroom. Replacing taps also ineffective and more money wasted. Water hot enough for dishes means a scalding hot shower, adding enough cold water results in a huge waste of water. Get the shower right and the temperature in the kitchen is inadequate for dish-washing. The plumber stated that this is normal for this type of water heater. No adequate explanation as to why they installed it. The previous heater was a Bosch Water Wizard that lasted less than 10 years. It was also terrible, when it "died" the plumber said the control box failed. It was not tested and I was quoted $755 to replace just the box. Why so expensive? the price was set by Bosch, says the plumber.
