Dont bother with pump, it wont make much difference

A water heater with pump does make a lot of difference.
I'm experience it myself. Am shopping for a new heater as my existing Joven pump just kaput.
With pump, the water just trickles.

I was told that AC pump has better water pressure, but noisier.
DC pump is quieter but relative less pressure.

Its not alot difference lah....probably just like 20% better.

The costs does not justify the difference. Better yet install a pump for whole house.

Missed the chance to install a main pump during house reno.
I will stick with the instant heater.
In my hse area the water pressure is really low.

Sorry for some adjustment..i mistake AC as DC.

Overall DC pump would be better compared to AC
