You mean the "storage heater" come with such built in pump can easily take the water pressure, not as strong enough but just right.

??

Not lah, for instant one.

Storage tank is depend on water pressure or change smaller piping.

If the incoming (source) water is low pressure, need a external pump, minimal 1/2hp pump. The build in pump is good for the instant water heater use, putting a rain shower is like putting a Kancil engine in a sedan can, it just not enough pressure to push the water out.

I bought this rain shower with led light. Worked well 1 day. After that until now the led not working. Waste of money.Better buy the one without the led..

I bought something like this (10" or 12" not sure) and planning to use water heater with pump.
Hopefully pressure is enough, if not then just add a dc pump at the main pipe.

Good luck. And do let us know here what is the result.

Hopefully lol

Btw havent buy the shower heater yet, already bought the rain shower non-concealed.

where did you buy?

i had a concept in mind on my bathroom and the led would fit just right.
no warranty? no replacement or after sales service kah?

Bought online from china.No warranty.Even in lelong i dont think there is warranty.You can try those who willing to give warranty.My water tap however the led still working since day one.

thanks for the input guys

i guess having a 10-12" rain shower is out of the question for now due to budget constraints as well as risk from issues related to water pressure. Maybe i will reconsider when i intend to renovate my bathroom.

Currently im stuck between the two choices below which is the same price

Not sure which one has the bigger shower head and if theres any difference feature wise. i know that the i70p has an on off button for the pump. unsure about the rinnai one though

Rinnai
REI-A360DP-R-WS


Joven
i70P

No budget then get joven, if got extra cash then get Rinnai, both are the good brand also specialist on heater series.

if use water heater with pump what type of pipe type & class is require? GI pipe may not be any issue but what about PVC?

Brought this Rinnai heater after saw your post picture. Really difficult to find.

Will install it this 2day and see how good is it.

My sister in law house installed 2 also, one got rain shower & the other don't have, not sure both is built-in pump, also diff color silver & black.

I am never test yet, cause still pending on my hand of help her paint the wall & ceiling

any feedback on the Rinnai heater ? from the spec got built in RCD too .. extra protection..

Hi there ozak,

I bought my unit also yesterday and wikl be installing today.
You mind sharing how much you bought it for?
Got it at rm750 without installation from a bath and kitchen shop in shah alam.
Agree with you,Really tired looking around for this particular model

"delete"

I too installed the exact same rinnai both with and without the rain shower. Performance wise, OK and it looks good.

Install it yesterday. Take about 2hr. Running very silent compare to the old 1.

Noise level about 55db at max pump running. The shower head flow is not strong as those big type. So if you looking for a strong flow, you will be dissapointed.

The cost:
1) Heater - RM720
2) Plumbing parts - RM5
3) Labour - Free

Here the step by step for those like to DIY.

Time to change the old heater after use for 7yrs. Still run perfectly without any problem. Just change for the safety reason.


Here the new Rinnai heater with pump.



The internal part. Pump at the right, heater left, pump controller on top the pump, heater controller ontop the heater and the connection at the top right.


The diameter of the shower head is 7". Not that big consider the flow is not strong. You won't get a quick shower with this. Use the handheld for stronger flow.


First of all, swicth ON the heater.


Press the test to check the RCD function. Also as switch OFF the heater.


Use multitester to double check. After makesure no power, Switch OFF the heater Switch.


Takeout the wire and tape it with pvc tape. Close the stop cock to the bathroom water. Takeout the inlet piping. Now the old heater can be takeout completely.



Measure the height according to the manual. In this case around 1200mm. Mark and drill a new hole. Screw the heater to the wall.


Continue.......
