Site Findings

A homeowner at Terrasse Condo contacted Homeone after observing performance issues and water discolouration from their existing Ariston PRO R S 56SHE storage water heater. Upon inspection, our technician confirmed the unit had reached the end of its lifespan. The tank displayed visible corrosion, and internal rust had begun affecting water quality, a classic case of water heater rusty.

Further checks revealed that, although the core plumbing remained intact, safety components such as electrical bonding and drainage alignment required review for compliance with PUB regulations. The homeowner requested a safe and lasting replacement with enhanced corrosion resistance.

Proposed Solution

To resolve the issue effectively, Homeone recommended a new Ariston PRO1 R INOX 40H water heater — an upgraded stainless steel model known for improved anti-corrosion properties and durability in residential settings.

To ensure long-term performance and safety, we also reviewed and upgraded critical installation elements, including:

  • check valve, stop valve and pressure relief valve
  • Stainless steel inlet, outlet, and drain pipes within 1 meter

  • Electrical bonding

All works were conducted by our trained installation team and supervised by a PUB-licensed plumber, with full documentation submitted upon completion.
