Booster pump will normally be installed beside your tangki, and it is always under the rooftop. As for the checking, what we normally do is we can first turn on the water tap, then turn on the shower water to see whether the water remains strong or has gone weaker. It also depends how many toilets you have. But the best way is to call up your plumber

dont buy JOVEN, 2days used KO liao

dont ever think about JOVEN...

Sounds like you had a really bad experience with the product. Mind to share?

only used for 2days, the heater KO, u shyiok or not? some more call to joven, they only able to come to repair on week day, saturday & sunday cannot come.... i need to apply 1day off just for this joven thing!!!!!

i got 3 units, haven use, install at new house.

I have 3 units of Rubine water heater (built-in ac pump) bought on January. 1 in the ground floor bathroom and the other 2 in the first floor bathrooms.
They were all running fine until the water disruption started in Selangor. One of the 1st floor unit doesn't function well anymore. When I turn it On and use, the pump sounds very weak and it dies off after a while leaving the water pressure extremely slow. But funnily, the water pressure is like normal from the taps in the same bathroom.
The other 2 units are working fine. Is the problem with my piping or water heater?

i got the plumber to run a bypass with one way valve at the tank to all the bathrooms on upper floors ($300 incl 3 valves & install) and then bought Joven water heater without the pumps (it cost much lesser compared to those with pump function) yet quiet And believe me the water pressure is good and i save on electricity bills long term and maintenance/investment on water pumps though i still dont pay for water bill as i used less than RM15 a month!

dont worry la, I got 3 Joven, use for 7 years also no problem
But mine are storage heaters, not instant. If instant ones, then good luck to you. (no matter what brand)

is instant ones that bad?

not bad but more parts to break down
and you might get electrocuted

storage heaters are more straight forward. its like a big kettle.

Ok, I'll opt for Alpha this time.
Next question, where to get 3 units at a bargain?
Not using it myself, just for a rent-out unit.

You can go to the shop that is nearby to your place. Or subsequently, you can come to our showroom too

Ok, let me do some legwork and compare.

You didn't read the news last yrs? A Japanese couple died electrocute by water heater in mont kiara.

every year thousands die from road accidents.

do you still drive / ride / take bus / take cab?

how many get electrocuted vs how many installed water heaters ??

well i did, but i seldom use, it's mainly for guest.

worried now.

Don't worried la. I also use instant heater. Ha...ha...ha..

Get a reputable product, and a good installer. Don't cheap on product and installation even is for rent. Your tenant is still human being.

i engaged the service of the electrical shop to install for me, their contractor don't even know how to install the latest joven RS model, end up i have to do it myself.
