Overspray

A comment

A hot water counter overshoots the measured water. The meter showed that it poured 1 liter, but in fact 0.8 liters were poured.

pros

Not.

Minuses

0.2 liter per liter inflates water consumption.

Term of use

less than a month

The quality of the meter is mostly good!

A comment

Since 2012, three meters of this manufacturer, 2 registered for cold water and 1 for hot water, have been working in my apartment without comment. The meter (red, for hot water) worked on hot water for 4 years (since 2012) without comment, during which time 78.767 cubic meters of hot water passed through it. Now, in October 2016, the meter’s check period has expired. I took off the meter and saw that the inlet plastic filter at the water inlet to the meter partially collapsed and became very brittle (I assume that it is under the influence of temperature). The manufacturer must take into account that the permissible temperature of hot water -up to 70 degrees Celsius! I hope that the manufacturer has already corrected this mistake and, therefore, bought and installed the same meter for hot water. I hope that he will work his guaranteed 6 years without comment.

pros

No worse, and maybe better than other meters. It is not difficult for a specialist to compare with other meters. There are no installation problems. The price is quite reasonable - only 30 rubles more expensive than the counter of another well-known manufacturer, and does not differ in terms of warranty and test intervals.

Minuses

only one small negative plastic filter.

Term of use

more than five years

Itelma counters, pleasing themselves at the moment

A comment

I had to decide on the installation of meters, after in our region we introduced increased water tariffs for citizens who did not install this device in their apartment. I chose Itelma water meters.
Instruments are manufactured in Moscow, a license from Siemens. In addition to the water meters themselves, gaskets, a wire for sealing and protective caps were attached.

Counters of small sizes - 110X67X69 mm, they can be installed both vertically and horizontally. So, it’s convenient to install them in absolutely any bathroom.

A convenient measurement scale is installed on the device, according to which it is possible to easily calculate the consumption of water. The case is made of brass, inside there is a built-in protective filter, the service life of the device is 4 years. No complaints to the device, he arranges completely and completely.

pros

small dimensions, convenient indicator

Minuses

cost

Term of use

more than three years

Itelma, reliable water meters

A comment

In my opinion, Itelma water meters are some of the best on the market. They perfectly match the price / quality ratio.Materials for the manufacture of meters are all made in Germany, German production technology. The design of the counters is quite simple and they look pretty, their eyes are not callous.

Meters of both hot water and cold can serve for 6 years, the small sizes of the meters are 110.80 mm.

I could never have thought that with these devices such tangible savings really occur, I would know if I installed them much earlier. In my family, I save 3 times, while the child gurgles every day in the bathroom, we naturally also do not refuse water procedures, washing is daily and everything else. Nevertheless, water is saved, it’s simply unrealistic to recruit 1 person for a standard.

pros

German quality, European technology, service life 6 years!

Minuses

Problematic installation.

Term of use

more than three years

Itelma water meter - a device that saves you money

A comment

I met with water meters back in 2001, a friend installed them in a private house, and making sure that they really save, I decided to follow her example.

Itelma counters installed on their own, the husband is well versed in plumbing. I just went after installation and wrote a statement to the housing department with a request to seal them.

Counters, like any object of use, have their own resources, after about 4-6 years they need to be changed. But even if you take into account all the costs of installing and buying new meters, it is much more profitable to exist with them.

Now it’s not so easy to install the device yourself, a lot of offices providing these services have divorced, they conclude agreements with the housing department. So, in our time, on our own, you can’t do it anymore; you will need to pay money to intermediaries for work. Counters definitely recommend!

pros

Saving

Minuses

A few years later, a replacement device is required for a new one.

Term of use

more than five years
