QUOTE(lionfish77 @ Jun 13 2012, 09:48 AM) Is anyone here using Stiebel Eltron multi-point instance water heater? This one need very thick wiring. What model you looking at is it the 7kw heating element? That take minimal 30amps. Writing is crucial. If you are running on single phase you risk running your house electrical to the limit.Is it reliable and good? Where can I go to have a look at some samples?  |

QUOTE(lionfish77 @ Jun 13 2012, 03:59 PM) No problem with wiring because everything is still in design phase. It will be 3-phase. I seen similar system during homedec, but no experience in it. Was part of my consideration when I renovate my house. I just need to know if the product is good or not? Or which model is good? Any reason why you use this and not storage water heater or solar? You still need to use central piping. |

QUOTE(lionfish77 @ Jun 13 2012, 05:05 PM) storage water heater is a no no for me. consume a lot of electricity. I am using storage water heater now.solar ... the problem with solar is that on rainy days when I need hot water, it 'doesn't work'. No sun. Need to use electric to heat up the water. On normal days I dont shower with hot water. Normal instant water heater like Joven etc are not nice ... I want something better. Stiebel Eltron seems perfect. It is safer also because you dont have to install the unit next to the shower. Plus I heard it is widely used in Germany. So, it cannot be that bad if it is a german product. Storage won't consume lots of electric, is only the initial warm up if you have not use it for few days or just install. Not sure from where you get the message that storage use more energy. It can even be much more efficient compare to instant. Solar you want high efficient get micro solar. Another one that is common use is rinnai gas water heater. Singapore and other country use it very frequent. |
