Why should we get a solar water heater?
1) For comfort
2) To save electricity


For Comfort

If you enjoy strong water pressure and rain shower effect like the 5 stars hotel, you will need to get either a storage heater or a solar heater. Storage heater is cheaper compared to a solar water heater. However, if u have 4-5 bathrooms, you will need to buy a few units and you also need to wait minimum 10-15 minutes for the water to boil before you can shower. Storage tank is usually recommended only for condo or if u have less than 3 person using hot water.
Solar heater on the other hand, uses the heat of the sun to generate hot water. Cold water will travel through the solar panels, when water gets hot, it will turn into steam and rise into the storage tank. The solar storage tank acts like a thermos, thatz y you will still have hot water at night and you do not need to wait for the water to boil as 60gal of hot water is stored in the solar storage tank. Imagine after a day of hard work, you will sure want to go home and have a nice shower. YOu wouldnt want to wait 10-15 minutes before you can shower. You also wouldnt wan to shower using instant heater with low water pressure.


Save Electricity

Storage Heater and Instant Heater uses electricity to generate hot water. Any electrical appliances that generate heat consumes a lot of electricity. Eg: Iron, Ceramic Hob and hair dryer consumes a lot of electricity. Solar Heater on the other hand uses the heat of the sun to generate hot water, so it does not use any electricity at all. We assume that you have 5 person at home, if u use a solar water heater, you could save RM 0.70 per person per day (some might shower 2-3times a day and it would cost more than 70cents), one year you can save RM 1,277.50

What do you need to use this system?
You will need to install hot water piping which most people will go for copper pipes. With this system you can have hot water for your shower, basin, kitchen sink and even your washing machine. Just let your plumber know where you wan to have hot water and they will prepare the piping for you.

This system is expensive as you need to add hot water piping.

Many would complain about the high initial cost of this system. Usually would cost around RM 10k for the piping cost plus the Solar Heater. You extend your kitchen 20-30k, plaster ceiling 10k and etc. Adding a solar system is part of renovation, RM 10k for something that can save you more than RM 1,000 per year and give u comfort would definitely worth more than extending your kitchen or other renovation plan. Total renovation cost 100k-200k, what is RM 10k? 10% of ur total renovation cost only, is that expensive considering it could save u minimum RM 1k per year?

Cost Comparison
Assume we have 6 toilets and 5 person in our family.

Instant Heater
1) 6 units of Water Heater = RM 1,800 (Rm 300 each)
2) Installation Charges = RM 480 (RM 80 each)
3) Electricity Bill = RM 1,095 per year (60 cents per person per day)
4) Water Pump = RM 1,300
Total Cost over 5 years = RM 9,055 (Provided that none of the heater spoil)

Storage Heater
1) 4 units of storage heater = RM 2,000 (RM 500 each)
2) Installation Charges = RM 720 (RM 120 each)
3) Hot Water Piping = RM 3,000
4) Mixers & Rain Showers = RM 1,980 (RM 330 per bathroom)
5) Water Pump = RM 1,300
6) Electricity Bill = RM 1,278 per year(70cents per person)
Total Cost over 5 years = RM 15,390 (Provided that none of the heater spoil)

Solar Water Heater
1) Solar + pump package = RM 5,299
2) Installation Charges = FREE
3) Hot Water Piping = RM 4,200
4) Mixers & Rain Showers = RM 1,980 (RM 330 per bathroom)
5) Electricity Bill = Zero
Total Cost over 5 years = RM 11,479 (Solar is with 10 years warranty wont spoil within 5 years)

install a water pump, or instant heater with pump. If you would like to have good pressure for whole house den use a water pump around rm 1.3k, if u have low budget and would like to have reasonable pressure only for shower then go for instant heater with pump which cost around rm 400 per unit. If you need 3 new instant heater with pump (cost RM 1200), then you should consider installing a water pump instead.

my house water pressure is very low sad.gif but i've check the waster pressure coming from outside is okay but i think only those go through the internal water tank makes my water pressure low. I have also install the water heater with pump, but the water pressure is so low that I think the water pump now also spoilt already, If this is the case, can installing a water pump help? or i have to do the whole water pipping? Can advise a bit?

Normal PVC could withstand upto 150PSI while pumps usually are 30psi. THerefore it is safe and you dont need to upgrade unless your plumber did not do a good job in connecting the pipe joints.

it can b fixed bt if ur solar is less than 10 years, get solarmate to check it as it is still underwarranty. Usually you don require to turn on the backup heater, i suspect somewhere is leaking

Hi Zheilwane,

Thanks for the info.
Normally we are unsure if the plumbers did a job or otherwise. To minimize the risk of pipe leakages (especially in the wall), is there a way to tweak or lower/control the pressure of Grundfos pumps?

Thanks
well

I am interested in the solar water heater system for my house.
Can we really get the shower water flow as strong as the the one in your 1st page picture? drool.gif
If I run 2 showers together, can still get the same strong pressure from both outlet at the same time drool.gif drool.gif
