one day is just stopped working, elcb no light, its as if the switch is no more. last me a good deal of 5~7 years already of which i cannot remember.

should i repair or should i just buy a new one with rain shower pulak?

My experience with build in pump, they never last. Max is 5 years. Just replace it.

sounds bout right, I have being reading the last few posts about heater with rain shower.
im interested and is stationed near USJ, Subang, Sunway and Puchong
Just wondering what model should i go to. i wonder hows that budget is like.

anyone bought joven water heater from Top Ten Puchong? their price is quite attractive compare outside electrical shops

anyone know high floor in condo need a water heater with pump or without pump? according to Joven website, 2 floor below the top floor will have sufficient water pressure therefore no need pump... can someone confirm that please? thanks!

Segamat Clinic assistant electrocuted by instant water heater.

Shit. Another case.

What brand is that?

Can't see it clearly. The news reported that she was on the floor with hand still holding the shower head when her father in law forced open the bathroom door.

After the Japanese couple incident, I replaced all my bathrooms 9 years old instant water heaters to the latest ones with added safety feature. It will automatically check for current leakage every time I switch on the heater.

Ya, dun save on such things... you never know what will happen.

I really can't understand why people are still using instant water heaters
Safety aside, don't you guys want a nice strong shower?
These instant heaters are like getting pissed on by a toddler. No I take that back. Even a toddlers piss is stronger.

It can't be the cost cause the ones with pump cost as much as a storage heaters

The ones with so-called rain shower is a joke. As for those with buildin pump, the pressure is better but the flow rate is still too low for a nice shower experience .

people choice, people money, you won't understand all people mind set.

Gee...!! You don't understand why the majority of the Malaysian households using instant water heater ???
So, are you still using the old fashion way to bath ??

You haven't heard of storage tank heaters?

any whole house water solution is way safer. storage heater, gas and solar are options.

Yup agreed. I'll be using a heat pump storage tank for my new place
One tank for the whole house hot water supply needs

can share how does a heat pump storage tank system look like?

Just replace to new 1 not enough. As you see in this few case, the heater doesn't protect you at all. You don't no when is the right time to change it. Or when is the time to take your life. Quite scary.

You need a third party safety device to protect you. 1 fail, still got another 1 to protect.

Any recommendation for safety device?

Ah...!! Now I get you point. So, you don't understand why 80% of the Malaysian households use instant water heater instead of storage tank heaters? But I think the reason behind it is pretty common sense isn't ??

BTW, When I bought the water heater, the dealer told me the Japanese couple case was due to storage tank heater. I heard only la, true or not nobody knows.
