new_home_maker 0 Report post Posted May 10, 2010 Dear All, I was considering different water heaters option - standalone instant heater and storage heater. Came across the City Gas Water Heater ERU-8 CG which can suppy to 2 bathroom. http://www.citygas.com.sg/waterheater/index.htm Have anyone installed to use this ? Can it be used for rain shower considering mine is top floor ? Thanks in advance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You mean the water is verified weak? I don't find any issues with water pressure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I read somewhere to use rain shower you need to have storage type water heater due to water pressure in standalone heater too low. So I need to know if this model is OK since it seem the cheapest in term of operational cost. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They got it for free last time when it was first launched. no issue with using rain shower. they also recommended it to me...but i paid $128 for it... its said to have 8l storage, i doubt would have any issues ba...if not would have been slammed on renotalk le.. quite a few reno blogs use it. like fftw..

So I need to know if this model is OK since it seem the cheapest in term of operational cost. I was told by soooo many people (incl. my reno contractor) to avoid the heater if I want a rain shower. I called up City Gas and clarified it to work fine. I took the plunge and... it works fine. My rain shower head is slightly smaller than my palm, but I believe even if you use those big-@ss shower heads, it should work too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
