squaretile 0 Report post Posted August 29, 2007 I bought a Joven instant water heater. Supposed to be mid-range, not that cheap kind. But after using, realised that when I first switch on it will be very hot such that i have to move away. then after that the temperature will drop a bit before stablising. Do you guys experience this kind of sudden heat increase with your instant water heaters too?My previous home had the tank heating storage heater type, so didn't experience this before.

leen 2 Report post Posted September 6, 2007 this is wat i gather for sourcing for instant heater. from what i have asked around, instant heater prices ranges from S$180 to S$280 per set, the price difference for same brand and model from different retailers ranges from S$20 to S$40. they are earning by the margin so they can't be having a S$100 difference. you can try the following places which i have gather from forumers' recommendations and do remember to call them to ask if they have want you want before going to their shops (as some of these shops only carry electrical and electronic goods only):1) Dav Electronics 21 Lor Kilat #01-02 Sun Ct Singapore 598123 (next to bukit timah SC) Tel : 6467 7767 Fax : 6467 7207 2) Kong Tai Electrical Trading 504 Jurong West St 51 #01-221 Tel: 65658924 3) Universal Union HTTP://www.universalunion.com.sg 710 Geylang Road (next to Lor 44) Singapore 389625 TEL: (65) 6749 0007 (65) 6743 3852 FAX: (65) 6746 8849 EMAIL: sales@universalunion.com.sg 4) Everjoint (ang mo kio) http://www.everjoint.com.sg Block 159, Ang Mo Kio Ave 4, #01-534, Singapore 560159.
