I am installing a centralised hot water heater for shower. The downstairs bathroom is a long way (abt 30 feet) from the location of the Joven water tank heater. Anyone know where to buy direct?

cheaper than copper (and no noise): buteline.com.my: PB piping. highly recommended.
also better than a centralised storage tank: instant gas heater for the whole house (from rinnai). no need to waste electricity. just have to wait like 10 sec for the warm water to come your way.

Copper pipes you can order direct from those old uncle hardware shops. The bigger ones should have them.
Joven 35 litres central water heater tank costs about RM580.
