Dear everyone!
I own a Tecalor 5.5 Eco, which I recently handed over for maintenance so that the promised 5-year warranty would be granted.
I was already looking forward to asking the questions that neither the operating manual nor the installers could answer two years ago when I took over the system. Unfortunately, the installers did not use the time to further educate themselves. They still set up the system as the manufacturer suggests. The gentlemen installers then confronted me by saying that I am not allowed to adjust anything on the system. They said they would report my "tampering" to the boss. Promptly, a handwritten note from the boss was added to the invoice stating that my adjustments voided the warranty.
What are your experiences? The manufacturer (not the maintenance company) had given me instructions by phone about a year ago on how I could optimize the system. The operating manuals from Tecalor each contain the phrase "individualization of settings" four times.
In the warranty conditions, I read that the entire system must come from Tecalor in its essential parts. Otherwise, there is nothing about the user and their behavior in the terms.
I will contact the manufacturer and present the problem. I will also ask the maintenance company on what grounds they refuse a warranty service.
I would also like to hear your opinions or, even better, experiences in parallel. Possibly, owners of Stiebel Eltron devices could comment on this as well, since the companies are related.
By the way, I have already tried to find an alternative company to take over the maintenance in advance. That did not work, as there are hardly any companies specialized in the Tecalor brand.
Best regards
