the wiring is inside the pvc case. i guess >30min of continuous usage. i am using silent pump version, not so noisy and the pressure is better then euro uno.
QUOTE(leeyung @ Nov 20 2011, 11:09 AM) icic Your wiring is not concealed? How "long" is the prolong used? My friends told me beebest also quite silent if compared to Alpha |

I had been thru few units of beebest sp2 in the past, and it does work great compare to panasonic or euro uno i tried and mine the longest serving sp2 in the house is 4 years++ and mid last year i bought another 6 for rm400 per unit.
QUOTE(Rojak @ Dec 7 2013, 10:11 PM) Just for sharing, currently using Beebest SP2 instant water heater. The water is hot and powerful and yet the pump is silent (DC Pump - much longer life pump). It has no fancy and not a great looking water heater but it purposeful and even my very low water pressure also can turn ON the water heater. (because certain water heater brand, when pressure is too low, it not able to turn On the heater). And the price is very reasonable below RM480 before installation cost. P/S, before using Beebest, I'm using multiple AC Pump Instant Water Heater brands before before but it's very noisy when you use after a year or 2 years onwards... |

i bought in Masai, Johor i need to get the shop name. not sure still can get this price or not, because back then i bought together with 11 unit of AC.
QUOTE(Rojak @ Dec 11 2013, 06:45 PM) Hi, may I know where do you the Beebest SP2 ? Since it cheaper than my Beebest SP2 that I installed last year. Besides that, I plan to change my Euro Uno (AC Pump) with Beebest SP2 within this week. My Euro Uno (AC Pump) is very very loud (few houses nearby also can hear it) when I used it for almost 5 years. And it started to trip to turn off by itself sometimes when i using it. (Electronic defects - Not Electric Shock). |

now i just bought Alpha m3ep from senq for rm389.00 not sure how good is this.
QUOTE(Rojak @ Dec 14 2013, 09:29 PM) Oh i see. No wonder... I bought only 1 water heater, therefore, the price is not as cheap as yours. I get it installed today and it working well. The pump is really silent and the water can be very hot when turn to max. |

Hmm, i think mine i consider as acceptable for the noise when i tested, maybe need to used sometimes more to see if it will become noisy after a while, i think its as quiet as my beebest sp2. another heater that i have is euro uno, cant remember model but that is very noisy. this alpha i bought 5 of this heater for my rental properties. so let see can this heater be reliable. i have 8 beebest sp2 for past 4 yrs, only 1 have electrical board/elcb issue. for pump heater i think its quiet cheap already.
QUOTE(StephenStriker @ Jan 12 2014, 06:19 PM) how was ur review on the water heater? i bought it too at sengheng for RM389 with my points, is a good deal but quite noisy. |

Installer usually will charge per item. But you can ask for more discounts or lumpsum since they come in one trip.
QUOTE(MtV @ May 6 2014, 03:39 PM) May I know if we purchase 3 unit of water heater plus 2 unit of fan, will the installer charge installation fee per item or one price for all 5 item? |

Bro, i dont think you shall tap wires from lighting point for WH. most lighting wires are 1.5mm if provided by developer or even the wire man. the MCB rating for lighting is usually 6A.
 QUOTE(supersound @ May 7 2014, 10:52 AM) You can, but make sure it is from the light point. As lights are not that power hungry  But you have to know by testing the fuse on the distribution box. If original already 1 fuse serve the whole room, then it will be quite risky. |

does jusco/senq even sell storage heater? i know they sell those instant one tho. and they will get third party installer to attend the installation.
QUOTE(janson_kaniaz @ May 31 2014, 10:20 PM) I'm not sure whether to go for electrical shop or shops in malls like jusco/senq and whether the prices r the same. Also, when they say installation is included, does it mean removing the old one as well? I have an old water heater with the tank being positioned 2 meters from the ground. Do they mind to climb up and remove the old one? |
