They told me after the unit stopped working after 6 weeks that hard water caused a complete decay of the elements and that every 2 months I should have washed them. Well, if it stopped working after 6 weeks, then how is that even possible. They said the warranty doesn't cover hard water. I said that the elements are covered under warranty and she said "no" they aren't. They can't just "say" that. I asked them to prove it and show me where it says anything about hard water and she said it doesn't. They simply do not honor their own product.
Update again - My replacement has now stopped working. This elements inside are absolutely shot. They can't handle the chlorine.
Update: I got a replacement unit and this one works great!
I read the bad reviews, yet I still ordered this hoping it would work for me. It didn’t. The install was fairly easy as I had my electrician do it and my plumber. It worked great for two weeks. And then nothing. Then we go through the endless loop of terrible customer support. Customer support expects you to be a wizard at machinery. The flow meter is in the inlet and it is extremely difficult to take out and check and extremely difficult to put back in. After weeks of struggling with customer support inadequacy, she simply wanted to send me another flow meter, which was in perfect condition. I asked to speak with a supervisor and the lady said that she was going to tell me the same thing. I asked them to overnight the flowmeter because I have a short term rental business and this was going to cause a big problem for the weekend, and she said that I would have to pay for the overnight even though I spent weeks trying to solve this on the phone with them. I’ve had the unit for one month, end it is also already resting on the outside. I do not recommend this product. Beware.

En México es muy caro el gasto de luz. Es de pensarse instalarlo. Pero en pocas horas tienes tu alberca caliente a 40 grados centígrados. Aunque falla mucho y es muy cara la compostura.
