What it is

The Ariston 816712 is a 1500W immersion heating element rated at 220-240V, manufactured by Ariston for use in its unvented hot water cylinders. It provides the electrical heating source that warms the stored domestic hot water within the cylinder. The element is a serviceable component, intended for replacement when the original fails or becomes scaled.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • No hot water from the cylinder despite the programmer and thermostat calling for heat
  • The element fails a continuity or resistance test across its terminals
  • The RCD or circuit breaker trips when the immersion circuit is energised
  • Water weeping from around the element boss or its sealing gasket
  • Heavy scale accumulation on the element sheath, causing slow recovery or noisy operation

Before you order

  • Confirm your cylinder model and edition against the fit list above, as element fitment varies between cylinder ranges
  • Check that the existing element's wattage and voltage match the 1500W 220-240V rating of this part
  • Isolate the electrical supply to the cylinder and drain the stored water before any inspection or replacement work
  • Inspect the element gasket and boss condition so any required sealing components can be sourced at the same time
