finally engaged one of the plumbing company and was told my water pressure at the meter (outside the house) itself is not as high as i initially thought. the guy traced from the tank to ground floor to meter. he suggested to me to lodge a complaint to syabas to ask them to change the pipe coz the water pressure prior to meter is already considerably low.

has anyone got experience complaining to syabas and successfully have the pipe changed by them? i am thinking syabas will probably not entertain my complaints, so was wondering if anyone has any experience changing the pipe prior to meter?

Check with your neighbour to see whether they have the same problem or not

if your water is connected to the tank, water pressure outside no longer matter unless the water unable to reach the tank, and if that is the case, u wont be the 1st person facing the problem, entire area will have the same problem, but if its the tank, then refer to this, i just came across.

TS using storage heater and mixer but dont have a pump. One possible reason, he is using main water for shower instead of water tank.

As i see TS only using hand shower, no rain shower and seems like there is no bathtub there. Actually from start if dont plan to install water pump, straight get instant heater with built in pump, save cost. Usually ppl use storage heater because they wanna install pump for high pressure and flow, but with high flow instant heater may not b hot enough (not enough time to heat up water), so they opt for storage heater (boil and store hot water)


Water from tank wont be strong (no pressure only gravity flow). The only way to have strong pressure is either bypass tank by using MAIN WATER or install a water pump.

If main water is weak or neighbor using water, your water pressure will drop. Imagine you are showering, suddenly some1 downstairs or neighbour turn on water, your pressure will drop, then water will suddenly get hotter, that is why many ppl dont use main water for shower.

So pump is the best solution for consistent strong pressure.

After many tries, I have decided to install outdoor water pump and it solves all the water pressure at home.
