Solar Hot Water Storage offers the best energy consumption vs usage if it is allowed to install at your new home. I also piped it into my kitchen to utilize hot water to clean my plates since it is "free"... tongue.gif. Those long hot shower water after a long days' work is really satisfying without the fear of over paying TNB for it.
You will need to budget additional $$ for hot water piping system as most homes does not come with it.

For A/C you may install all pipings to be Inverter ready. The only install the unit where you will use it where budget is tight. Only install the unit later when budget allows. Eg, install all inverter ready pipings, then install the unit at Master Bedroom and Living Room area only. The rest of the rooms can be installed later when funds allow.

Yes, the upsize is choosing the next available HP unit.

Solar water heater will cost roughly about RM20k with installation included. That's pretty expensive I would say. Besides, we won't be spending a very long time in the shower anyway. If me, I will go for individual electric heater. RM1k can settle 3 bath rooms. biggrin.gif

Wow, where you got this quote?  confused.gif
The system itself is about 4-6K and piping for individual location depending on the piping used is between 1.0-1.5K.

Sure? If it's really cost that amount, then no harm installing it.

I was informed of RM20k when my friend installed his. Cost included everything so i thought roughly all solar water heater will cost around there.
