The 3kW 15L Ariston under sink water heater has very good reviews on
the Screwfix site. Any personal experiences of the quality?

Lots of schools and NHS places I work at have had them fitted as standard.

Does anyone know the heat loss of these things? The Ariston site doesn't give
any info beyond describing them as 'class B', and I'm not sure how that
translates.

I can't see that It'd be very well insulated because it's quite a
small unit. I could always wrap it in my fluffy louge suit, as summer
is now fast approaching.

I did find something - a figure expressed as kW/hr/day, something called a
'standing loss' in the order of 0.5 to 1, depending on the unit. I'd guess
this is something like the typical amount needed to keep it at a particular
temperature for a day.
