Anyone using storage heater? Quite popular in SG I think it's a hassle that you need to turn the switch on 30mins before showering Besides that anyone actually uses gas heater in Malaysia? *I rarely use heater/aircond but it's good to have them installed and ready to use lol Btw is Gas Malaysia available in Shah Alam? And the bodoness I just read(read attachment) This post has been edited by NielWooWoo1205: Sep 22 2017, 04:45 PM Attached thumbnail(s)

Lel Bodo.
Instant water heater now got thermostat la.
And if water pressure is too low to trigger the pump or heater, you have a bigger problem to solve

I am using Joven 25L storage heater (10 year warranty). I like it compare to instant water heater, pressure is good for rain shower and bathtub.

There’s no need to wait 30mins. Only the first time you using it after that no need to wait cause the water stored is still hot

Been using this as well for 7 year +, screw up once when the tank is empty and i switch it on, thermostat kong and damage is 100+ And you dont need to wait 30min  , 3 min ... maybe. Anyway I love cold shower even on rainy day, the heater is only use by the home minister.

The only advantage for gas water heater with tank is cost saving in sg Meanwhile in countries with winter, the tank supplies to all water taps and it is always on
