+1 for Panasonic too!

Mine is Panasonic DH 3K P1, used 11 years still going strong. If it ever rosak, it's a no brainer I'll replace it with another Panasonic.

Panasonic Push-start staple models are pretty good.

Still using National ABJ 2 biji from 1997 at parents' place; and my own place a mix of 10-year old square ABJ model and a newer M series.

All retrofitted with 10mA RCD.

How does this model compare with Toshiba DSK38ES3MB-RS? Both are around the same price range and Toshiba model does come with rain shower, which I prefer more. Safety wise which one is better?

This one can last 10-15 years.

whereas the other one.. you slowly read https://www.facebook.com/groups/kakirepair/...64569476956630/ but do note its only below 3 yrs whistling.gif

Rain shower gimmick if not sized appropriately (heating capacity and pump pressure) coz by the time it drip down it already cool off, or not strong.

Wish my water heater spoil further later.
New design nicer.

Show photo.

Water flow from shower head is only good as it is. Any addition piping will hinder the flow without a pump.

Like what mini orchard has commented, showing us your installation picture will better help us understand what problems u are facing.

Regardless, just backtrack and investigate which component is slowing down your water flow, assuming your original water source has good water flow, as what u have mentioned.

1. Remove pipings from water source to water heater, double check if your original water source is still strong. If yes,
2. Connect water source to stop valve, remove stop valve from water heater's inlet, check if your original water source is still strong. If no, the stop valve is what slowing down the water flow. If yes,
3. Connect stop valve back to water heater's inlet, remove water heater's outlet hose, check if your original water source is still strong. If no, the water heater is what slowing down the water flow, maybe something stuck inside. Get Midea service team to check. If yes,
4. Connect water heater's outlet hose, remove shower handset. Check if your original water source is still strong. If no, the shower handset is what slowing down the water flow, maybe something stuck inside.

Thank you mini orchard and Selene Yeo. It's been a long time since my last reply.
I manage to solve the problem. Caused by some hard mineral from the pipe stuck between the inlet hose and the water source. Maybe when the contractor remove the shower and turn it into inlet they didn't notice it. I remove the inlet hose from water source and notice it stuck on the filter. Cleaned that and my water pressure is back to normal.

I bought the toshiba dsk38es3mb in 2020. The unit is now slightly faulty. The temperature knob does not show the correct temperature and the temperature keep moving everywhere. I noticed that I need to put more to the redline to get the same temperature. Anyone like this? Is this fixable? It says on the unit 5 year warranty.

Already out of warranty? Check if warranty is only on specific component like only for heater element.

WH is high energy consumption and unless you have experience to diy, call for service.

I checked that the 5 years is on DC pump and Heater only. General warranty is only 1 year.

The rheostat is easy to change but whether it is easy to find the similar one. The 3rd party repair shop can do this. I have no idea on charge.

Bought mid 2020. Not sure if rheostat considered heater or general warranty. I see. I will send to Toshiba SC then. But they only work on weekdays. Maybe they can come to the house and remove it from the wall. The technician which installed it did it very firm-now stuck to wall.

I'd say it is under general warranty if the rheostat (old term for which nowadays called potentiometer or variable resistor). I think min basic charge is RM60. Maybe the whose repair charge is just over RM100 hmm.gif
