In conditions of tough competition among manufacturers of devices water heating born myth that actively exploit sellers storage water heaters with tanks of stainless steel. Ostensibly, only those containers capable of resisting corrosion. However, they are unlikely to merit more than the tanks with corrosion-resistant coating. The main argument of supporters of the “steel” is that the change of pressure tank heater “breathes,” from which the coating is broken and the steel starts to rust.

Anticor greatly exceeds the requirements of national and international regulations and regulatory documents. Unlike traditional one-and two-layer enamel, anticor not inclined to drop formation.
