Atmor Basic 5kW Dush
 | Outdated Product Instantaneous water heater with a power of 5 kW with simple mechanical control and compact overall dimensions for horizontal installation. One of the older models of the Atmor Basic series, designed for direct connection to a 230 V household power supply. The manufacturer positions it as an affordable product of the basic price category, intended for domestic use. Perfect for showers, wash basins and kitchens. The main advantage of the Atmor Basic 5kW Dush electric instantaneous water heater is high-speed water heating, which compares favorably with storage boilers that heat up for at least several tens of minutes. Able to perform the duties of a backup source of hot water in case of planned / emergency shutdown of centralized hot water supply. Productivity reaches 3 L/min (at heating on 2...5 °C) that is quite enough for normal domestic needs. The water heater is controlled by a simple electromechanical system with indication and protection against overheating. Two switches allow the machine to work in three different power modes (2, 3 or 5 kW), which allows you to adjust the temperature of the water leaving the machine in steps. Modest overall dimensions will help covert installation. The maximum heating temperature is 65 °C. Significant electrical power requires wiring with a cross section of 2.5 mm². |

Model overview based on user reviews
The Atmor Basic Dush is a tankless water heater that offers fast heating and energy efficiency, making it a suitable choice for those looking to save on electricity compared to traditional storage water heaters. Users appreciate its ability to heat water quickly, with some noting it reaches a constant temperature in just 10-20 seconds. However, the device's performance is highly dependent on water pressure, and it may struggle to provide hot water in colder conditions or with low pressure. Installation can be challenging due to the use of plastic threads, which may not be durable. Some users have experienced issues with the heating element and recommend installing an RCD for safety. Overall, while the Atmor Basic Dush is a cost-effective and space-saving solution, potential buyers should consider their water pressure and electrical setup before purchasing.

Using a storage water heater for a shower is not always convenient. Especially often there are problems when washing for one or two people, and more. As a rule, the last hot water will be little or not enough at all. Therefore, at my sawmill, in the shower room, I decided to install an instantaneous water heater. Israeli Atmor flow boilers have been sold in our market for a long time, they have a moderate cost and are provided with a one-year warranty. After six months, I can say that not everything is as good as it seemed before the purchase. Fast start. It reaches a constant temperature literally in 10-12 seconds. Compare with waiting hours for storage boilers. The amount of hot water is limited only by your desire. There are three power levels: 2, 3 and 2+3=5 kW. You can use the first two stages only in summer, with non-cold incoming water. We work exclusively in 5 kW mode. The first problems started during installation. The plumber swore frantically as he tried to screw the metal union nuts onto the plastic outlet pipes of the boiler. During installation on one of the pipes, I damaged the thread and tried to seal this place for a long time. I have no doubts about the qualifications of a plumber, he is by no means a hand-ass, but what the designer thought, putting plastic threads on the hot water outlet, is not entirely clear. The maximum temperature is obtained at a rather mediocre pressure and not too cold source water. In winter, when the temperature of cold water drops below ten degrees, getting at least 35 degrees at the outlet of the boiler is already happiness. The temperature is regulated by the pressure of the water, and if the pressure drops, and this happens regularly, because there are other consumers on the same pipe, then at best the temperature rises sharply, and at worst the protection works and the boiler turns off. Requires a separate power line, which is not surprising, because the current consumption exceeds 20 A. |
A storage electric boiler is installed in my city apartment, but in my country house, I decided to experiment a bit. In addition to a 100-liter boiler, I bought this flow heater. The plan was simple – for situations when the whole family is at the house and hot water is needed constantly, there's the storage boiler. But if we all decide to take a shower at once or if it's just me in the house, then the flow heater is preferable. I bought it and installed it myself. About the installation, I'd like to say a "few choice words" to the genius who made the outlet pipes out of plastic. Tightening brass nuts or couplings on them is an unmatched "pleasure". However, I'm overall satisfied with the boiler's performance. Less energy consumption than a storage water heater. For example, to take a shower, I need to heat a 100-liter storage heater to at least 40-45 degrees. That means at least an hour of work for a 2-kilowatt heating element. With an instantaneous water heater, I can manage it in ten minutes with a 5-kilowatt unit. In the first case, I consume 2 kWh, in the second 0.83 kWh. Yes, that's a 240% difference. The water temperature is set almost instantly, within 15-20 seconds. You don't have to wait 2-3 hours like with storage heaters. You can adjust the heating power, but this function is practically pointless—it's almost impossible to get a good flow of truly hot water even at 5 kilowatts, and if you lower the power further, what will the output temperature be? There is a very strong dependence of the temperature on the water pressure. And in summer, my water pressure can fluctuate significantly. It operates unstably with low pressure, triggering the protection system and the boiler shuts down unexpectedly. |
You may come across a dangerous device with a breakdown of the heating element. If the device is working properly, it can be used. The flow device turned out to have damaged heating element insulation. An electromagnetic field was created around the device and a leakage current appeared on surrounding metal and wet objects. Life threatening. Although all three wires were connected. I had to urgently install it. Watch carefully for current leakage to surrounding wet objects. use Atmor Basic 5kW Dush less than month |
