Yel

Thanx meepok for the advise and to mapleleaf for understanding. My mum have been pretty upset over the incident and keep nagging that she regret taking this unit. She kinda of miss our old neighbors. I remember that they always like to see who is richer and bigger cars... seems like a small matter compare to our current neighbor. They are always friendly and always chatting with my mum. the aunties gang. Even tho' the young girl was scolded for greeting us. She is so cute and adorable. Still greet us when she see us. We will still smile and greet her back. Hope that the little won't grow up so rude as the parents or the grandparents.

Thanx Pooh_75 if they persist on parking their bicycle in between their and our door, i will resort to taking photos and presenting it to the town council and hopefully action can be taken. seriously i wish i didn't have to resort to such drastic actions, after 2 mths of silence enduring them parking and invading my front door. they have lots of ppl visiting and seems like everyone that visits also ride bicycle. I have seen some neighbour they park at the other side where it doesn't inconvenience anyone. I wonder why my neighbour can't do that. Mapleleaf was at my place when it happen. Sorry for her to get a shock seeing my mum and me arguing with our neighbour. Apologies Mapleleaf. I think the uncle thought there was only my mum so he can yell at her to keep quiet. I got a shock and rush to the front door and see them arguing. Mum say when she try to go out the bicycle block her way so she ask them to shift it aside. Like i say previously sentence never finish and she got scolding. hope everything will be well.

thanx aural glad to know that i am not the one being unreasonable. don't think the soft approach will work. since yest after the quarrel, they instructed their kids not to greet us. and told them not to be so courteous. you know how innocents kids are. the son scold the sister out loud for greeting us and mention that she is not suppose to greet at all and the grandmother scold the gal too. wat sort of parents/elders actually educate their kids like that? Maybe they only think they are not at fault at all but we are the ones being unreasonable and petty and selfish.

wanted to be a good neighbour and tolerant my neighbour's selfishness. but yesterday was too much. they like to put their bicycle in between their front door and our door. When my mum open the gate to go out and got block by their bicycle she ask them nicely to remove so that we can get out from our place. before her sentence of "uncle do you mind if you could shift yr bic.........." sentence ended. she got a scolding from them for being selfish. Such a little thing also complain. they always hang their clothes to dry on a rack in front of the electrical and gas door. They will then park their bicycle on our side. When we return home we have to get through a maze to our front door. I wonder who is being selfish? beside the fact that her husband like to juz walk around top naked and sometimes wearing juz a towel around his waist laying on the living room floor?

thanx redwyrm will lodge a complain too... so that they will do something fast.

Hi Toppie, there is a few brands on the market. I think most of the ppl in blk 79 kakis took either joven or ariston. I think you can check out those shop that sells bathroom accessories or those small shop that sells electrical stuff. I bought Joven 35L for $288. installation is $80. I think the price is on the high side. I bought it from the shop ALP (near KFC). I did check out the price from Tai Sin and it is around $250 installation is around $120 but the sales person at Tai sin refuse to commit the installation price. After comparing it doesn't seem to be any diff so we bought from ALP as we have bought things from them before. From my limited knowledge... Instant Heater should be installed in the bathroom and limited for showering only. The tap in the bathroom won't have hot water. The rest of the house will have cold water. Whereas Gas Heater / Storage heater installed in the kitchen. The whole house will have hot water even the bathroom tap or kitchen tap. We have select a kitchen sink tap that have hot/cold water like the ones given by hdb for the bathroom. my mum like it coz after bathing she can use the remaining hot water in the storage heater to wash oily utensils.

Hi popeye gal Gas heater and instant heater is different. Gas heater uses gas to heat up whereas instant heater shd be electricity right? I think instant heater is better. I used to use instant heater at my old place.

Hi Toppie I personally won't recommend the gas heater. I shifted into blk 79D a couple of weeks ago. I was recommended by my id to use the gas heater too. We have been using the gas heater for about a week. It take ages for the hot water to reach the bathroom i think one of the reason was due to the long piping from the kitchen to the bathroom. We have to let the water run (wasting like 1 1/2 to 2 pail of water) before the hot water comes. We experience that if someone is taking a bath and another person on the tap in the kitchen.... the person bathing will get a sudden cold splash of water instead. Every time someone switch on the tap the gas heater will have the ta ta ta sound like when you on yr gas stove and it doesn't start. There seem to be some water pressure problem too. The flow of the hot water is very small and not really hot. Our id told us that we have to get citygas to adjust the temperature if we need hotter water. Also gas heater won't allow 2 person to bath at the same time. We have try it. The whole family complain and we had to get the gas heater remove. For those ppl considering gas heater please re-consider Now i am loving the new storage heater that we bought. The water is hot and no more water pressure or waiting for someone to finish bathing.

Hi Everyone.. haven't login in such a long time Hi Coco_mybibi I have 2 compressors. They are not stack on top each other but side by side. I am staying in Blk 79D 4 room.

Hi Lwenn Heard of Advance and did drop by the office. In the end we decided to drop the ID cause we don't feel very comfortable with him. One is that they do not give written quotation, gave us a figure and told us everything is included. What exactly is included beside the few things he told us, we are not very sure. Beside that the most important to me was that he didn't really want to confirm with us what sort of material he is using eg parquet from which country, long or short strip. He will just tell you he will take care of everything. Another is he ask for a 10% deposit and after the payment he will then write the quotation for you. Btw, he keeps telling you that he doesn't know how to write in English so the quotation is in mandarin and if you require it in English you have to wait for the office clerk to translate. In the end, it comes up to how comfortable you are with the ID and their prices. Or you could check around before you make any decision. Happy ID hunting.
