Just use smart switch to replace the normal 20A wall switch and program using apps in phone I guess. Nowadays, there are a number of product available. last time no 20A switch

I'm a bit wary of using unpopular brand. Scared hard to get spare parts if something goes wrong. Like unpopular car brands in Malaysia  sweat.gif

Since there aren't much mechanical parts in the system, I would expect them to last at least 10-15years except for the heating element.

I got quoted RM610. But i think that’s the basic model. No HE nor IB. I will ask again when I’m really buying.

Installation by my plumber. Price quoted lump sum including installing hot water pipes & everything.

I’m planning to buy the horizontal Joven 25l with HE. But one of the shops told me that her customers complained of corrosion & Joven’s slow customer service. She recommended Alpha storage heater instead.

Anyone using Alpha now?

Recently, I have purchased a Panasonic water heater.

To my surprise, the unit started to leak water from the heater tank 1 day after installation.
This tripped the circuit breaker.
Luckily, no one was hurt.
Now, I'm waiting Panasonic to give a solution.

Lesson learnt, branded heater will also have lemon unit.

FYI, I have been buying Panasonic water heaters only for the last 10 years (about 6 units) and all are working fine until today.
This lemon unit taints the perfect reputation...

Which model number?

I'm thinking to get Pana DH-3RP1 (or Toshiba DSK38ES3MB-RS). Hope no issue later.

Can get whichever is cheaper. Both should work similarly as the two of them don't have push start. If push start & pump can try DH3MP1.
Dont get N series Pana...newer series macam not reliable

I feel like getting conned. My unit came with an unknown “Meru” storage water heater. I got it fixed in July by its distributor (I think) for RM400. Shortly after that it started to leak and my tenant only informed me in August. So the company sent technicians over twice. First time they said the valve wasn’t tightened or something. FOC and I tipped them. It still leaked. Today another team of technicians came and said the tank is spoilt and has to be replaced. I have to fork out RM120 as checking fees since it’s not due to changing the heating element back in July. The tank has to be replaced. I’ve paid RM520 so far and I’ll still need to replace the tank and redo the plaster. mad.gif mad.gif mad.gif

Good news! The water heater exploded last night.

Is this a problem with the water heater itself or a repair job badly done by the technician? Where can I file a complaint if I want to?
