An Ariston Pro R 80L electric water heater (geyser), Made in Italy, horizontal wall-hung, with an enamelled glasslined steel tank and 5-bolt flange — a premium-tier option for villas and apartments.
How is this installed?
A water heater needs both a plumbing and electrical connection. If you're replacing an identical existing heater on the same pipework and wiring, a plumber or handyman can usually manage it — but a new installation should go through a licensed plumber and electrician.
Key Features
- 80L capacity, horizontal wall-hung
- Enamelled (glasslined) steel tank tested to 16 bar
- Oversized magnesium anode, 5-bolt flange for easy element access

FAQ
-
Can I install this myself?
A like-for-like swap is straightforward for a plumber. New plumbing or wiring should be done by licensed professionals.
-
Is a "geyser" the same thing as this water heater?
Yes — "geyser" is the common term used across the UAE and wider region for a domestic electric water heater like this one.
-
What makes the Pro R line different from the Blu R line?
Pro R is Ariston's premium tier — Made in Italy with a glasslined (enamelled) tank — while Blu R is a value-tier line built to the same core safety standards. Both use a magnesium anode and steel tank; Pro R is positioned for buyers wanting the Italian-made build.
-
Does the anode need maintenance?
Yes — the magnesium anode is a sacrificial part that protects the tank from corrosion and should be inspected periodically and replaced when worn, especially in areas with hard water.
