if the power plug for the heater is preinstalled inside the shower room slightly above where the heater should be located, is it safe? since steam travel upwards. usually the plug/switch is located outside. in this case the plug is inside the showerroom do we need special installation or seal to prevent water mist going in?

also for such installation any reliable brand? just need safe & reliable. if got build in pump is good to have but normally i don't think will use it, but sometimes water pressure maybe low.

hows those standard models sold in shops like Panasonic?

water pressure is higher when the elevation is lower.

unless you mean moving from upper floor down to 1st floor.

can you give an idea how much % boost the pump gives? i'm not fancy the pump is always on. are there other Panasonic models that can manually turn off the pump?

also the non-jet pump version of your model, is exactly built the same minus the pump?

how much amp does heater normally use (with pump) can normal switch & cable support?

the switch outside did you add or original came with?

if i add this will it help? btw most plugs have same dimension right?

sauna no, but mirrors do get fogged up with the heater on.

hi, anyone using DH-3NDP1MS or similar water heater?

want to ask regarding the ELCB Test Button, when you press the button, do you feel a click on the button?

i haven't install the heater yet but when i push the ELCB button at bottom up, i press the ELB Test button, i don't feel anything, not even a click like button should, is something wrong?

hi there, i just got my Panasonic Water Heater (similar to yours but without the pump & digital LCD (just turn knob).

can you do me a favor, can you test the water heater button with the power source (switch) turned off, when you push the ELCB "Reset" button at the bottom up, when you push the ELB "Test" button, does anything happen? will the Test button stay jammed like you can't press the 2nd time like it stays flat? or you can keep pressing the Test button like you can feel it's not stuck?

coz i haven't connected the heater yet but my test button seems to have "jammed". i'm not sure if it's designed to this way until power is connected, or the button is faulty.

will be a life saver thanks.

ok thanks alot, just to confirm it's the square button on the face of the heater, not the reset button at the bottom.

i always though buttons are buttons only difference is whether it works or not when you press. 1st time i see button stuck when no power connected.

haha this is 1st time buy panasonic, old heaters you can press the buttons will feel pressed and tick tick sound.

coz the button felt like it was stuck/broken, so i was worried. coz the feel is exactly just like a broken button (on other electronics like when you press too hard & broke it).

just asking, for instant water heater like Panasonic, just plug & play right (water inlet & power source), do we need to open up the casing to connect wires for the ELCB function? coz i read the manuals they drew up the internal wirings for the ELCB.

also if the original bathroom already have the shower head (like the one in hotel water drops down from above head), how do we install the water inlet for the instant water heater? must remove the existing shower head and run a water pipe to the water heater?

for the water pipe, must be those normal PVC water pipe? or can we use those flexible water hose instead? as PVC pipe need to cut & connect bends and need to use pipe clip & screws onto the wall and at the water heater end still need an adapter.

btw the model is Panasonic DH-3NS2MS (Non Jet Pump), when i see your post about opening up the casing i don't think i can handle it. turning on the water just to test for leaks with the casing removed is very brave even with power off. if got leak outside splash to the boards how?
