Also make sure that the storage water heater is being installed with:
a. 2 Isolation Barriers (at water inlet and outlet) - to prevent electrocution
b. Pressure Relief Valve (at water inlet) - to prevent storage tank from being over-pressured (which might cause it to rupture / leak), and to facilitate water drainage during servicing
If I am not mistaken, this will be a compulsory requirement set by SIRIM and Suruhanjaya Tenaga for all SIRIM-approved brands to be pre-installed with these 2 items soon.
By far, storage water heaters market leaders like CENTON and JOVEN already followed this ruling. But just double check during your installation and make sure these 2 items are being fitted, just in case the brand u have bought doesn't have them.
