A lot of people have issues with the Wilson Super x. They don't work well with modern outlets that restrict pressure . Restrictions and aerator… Read more

should be removed as these units work on water pressure to activate and stay on . Turn you hot on full and then adjust with your cold . If your still having issues the either your cold water pressure is to low or one of your electric phases is out or not producing at full capacity....

Excellent savings and operation – Have had one now for several months and have found it to be excellent. Has saved me heaps on hot water electricity bills. I have now also adjusted… Read more

the time settings on it so that it heats in the middle of the day, for when the peak heat of the day is available (eg drawing heat from the environment), and also so that our solar PV system generates power to cover its use. It seems to be very efficient.

Great service from these guys! – I have a MicroHeat heater that acts as a booster to our Sanden heat pump, since that heat pump is such a long way from our bathroom. It works really… Read more

well - gives near instant heat when we turn the shower on, then powers back as the Sanden hot water comes through. However, after 4 years it stopped working! I was worried since the stated warranty is only 3 years. But MicroHeat replaced the unit with no squabbles. A replacement unit arrived in the mail very promptly and they even covered the cost of the electrician and plumber! This is great service from a small Aussie company. Thank you guys!

Last week, our water heater stopped working, which caused us a lot of inconvenience. I placed an online order with JR Gas and Water, and this week we… Read more

were able to enjoy hot water again. They installed a Stiebel Eltron water heater, and the entire process was excellent. The online ordering was very easy and fast, and the price was reasonable. The installation was handled neatly and professionally, and I’m very thankful for their service. I sincerely recommend JR Gas and Water to others.

Great buy, always hot water at the right pre determined temperature – When we had the bathroom renewed 2 years ago we had had enough of always waiting a long time for hot water with the gas cylinder on the other side of… Read more

the house. In the dressing room next to the bathroom the electrician and plumber installed this great piece of German engineering and we never looked back. There is a simple dial on the small device that shows on the LED display underneath the desired temp. My wife and I have have different favourite temperatures and also depending on the season this changes. The Stiebel is great, and the water tap in the shower gives after 2 second hot water at exactly the temperature we set it at. No more fuzzing with the mix tap. What a treat ! I would never hesitate to buy this great thing again !

Ballina Hot Water Specialists installed this unit for us in Northern NSW. This review is more about the business than the system they installed… Read more

(that will follow). Ballina Hot Water Specialists were excellent from start to finish. Dane was clearly more concerned about me getting value for money than them making a profit. They made sure they extended the life of my old system as long as they could before replacing it. I cannot speak highly enough about them, their prompy response and support, clean and efficient work, everyhting we asked and hoped for and finished the job well inside the allocated time frame. Also, excellent pricing (and I was prepared to overlook any variance in return for the high service level, but they came in as Best value as well. If your in this area, look no further.

Not fit for purpose – After installation of Stiebel Eltron DHF13, had to remove kitchen tap diffusers to enable water to run hot enough. The IHW unit can't manage to… Read more

provide even temperature of water for shower - too hot or too cold. Stiebel Eltron 1st suggested changing from hand-held shower to wall-mounted shower to overcome problem, which was unsuccessful. They then suggested getting their Service Rep to come out and fit their other model - DEL 13, however couldn't guarantee that this would rectify things! You have to wonder if this isn't some wort of scam. Has anyone else had similar issues?

Amazing performance – Ok, so where do I start, after searching around for a system I stumbled on the Powerbay, and all I can say is that it’s bloody awesome, it gives me… Read more

HOT water, which is what you’d expect, but the biggest thing is that i can see that I’m actually saving money using it, don’t look at cheaper options, go for something that gives longevity.

Been using this HWS for about a year now. It works well enough for most applications. However There are two main issues we have found with it: 1.… Read more

the unit works optimally when consistent water pressure to it is maintained so any use of cold water elsewhere in the house will mean that there are fluctuations in temperature...mostly not an issue BUT whilst having a shower...not great! 2. same kind of issue in that HW cannot be used elsewhere in the house whilst having a shower as some issue will result in shower.

So unit OK in only limited applications unless you have no probs with shower temperature fluctuating. :-)

Stiebel Eltron hws Beware there is no warranty by this company and they only last a year . Purchased in sep 2023 the unit stopped working in November… Read more

2024 and was uninstalled for warranty replacement. Then the troubles begin , every question is asked about what the customer did wrong , whether a tap was installed despite no requirement or what went wrong at the installation address , which by the way is nothing . Why would anyone contact a company for warranty about a faulty product if the product was working . After it stopped working the hws was tested thoroughly by a competent licensed person , turned off so rested and tried then retried and it does not work . But the service people still will not take any responsibility or replace . I do not want a hws in my house that only lasts one year and neither does anyone , Just poor service and I would advise to stay away from this company . I will be returning it to tradelink demanding a full refund as it has a 3yr warranty and Stiebel Eltron do everything in there to avoid honouring their warranty . For the record an electric hws is a basic item , there is a tank , an element to heat the water in the tank and there is a thermostat to regulate the water . Pretty basic and when one of these is faulty it means the whole unit is faulty so a replacement or refund is the only fair and reasonable action . Not 50 questions from a cheat sheet by a unqualified phone operator. They just delay , deny and de interest until the customer goes away , the 3ds ……. Steer clear of this company people they do not honour warranties and it is a terrible product
