Brick Wall By The Floor 5Rm Bto @sengkang

Recommended Posts

Last weekend we changed out the Bennington C600 multipoint instant water heater and replaced it with this Joven 25L storage heater. So glad we did. Water pressure is stronger and larger now. Heat is also consistent. The difference can definitely be felt.

However, unlike the C600, this new storage heater is huge and conspicuous.

Is the Bennington C600 really that bad? I think the experience is all subjective. Both of us got used to the strong water pressure of storage heater at our previous place before we moved in. So relatively, the instant heater was rather disappointing. And now that we have tried both, we still prefer the powerful shower that this storage heater can provide. More shiok.

Just an additional reference for those who are considering between the two types of heater, C600 cannot really support 2 showers at the same time. With our new 25L storage heater, two showers can now be used at the same time.

Luckily I bought storage heater instead of this. Looks like storage heaters still have some advantage.

I am very unlucky.

1. I bought the spotlights, connectors and tracks but the tracks were not included when it arrives. They forgot?

2. The pendant lamp is uneven. Can see clearly when put on flat surface like floor.

3. The standing light is very good looking but the light bulb shattered into pieces upon arrival.

Hmmm, maybe their business too good. For bulbs, generally we will buy extra LED/ Edison bulbs to replace. Many of the free fluorescent bulbs that came with the lights didn't survive the shipping.

Yea. We learnt it the hard way :P

Hi Nick,

You have nice armchair! Mind to share the link? Thanks.

Here is the link. http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z09.2.9.13.GJI5xp&id=38272184952&_u=51q6ekj8f555 Overall is good but the fabric is slightly rough if you wear shorts and skin has direct contact to the seat.

Hi Nick, any review for the ceiling fans? We are contemplating to buy the 48" for living room, and 36" for study room and master bedroom.

Seems ok. Except for one of the fan, was a little noisy when installed by the contractor, got the Relite people to come and fix it and it is fine.

Nice design, may I know if the heater tank can be installed in the service yard or not? and can you inform us the ceiling fan brands ? thanks.

Sorry, I am not sure whether it is possible to install at the service yard. Brand is Relite. Petite is the model. For black comes in 36" and 48". Bought at Tai Yong Electric at Jalan Besar.

Now that I have installed the C600, I have to agree on this. The C600 definitely CANNOT support 2 showers at the same time.

I just want to take this opportunity to really thank Jake and his team for the job well done! Will definitely recommend ZL construction if anyone needs a reliable contractor with good workmanship. The renovation process went smoothly. It was largely because Jake is a very responsible and competent contractor and project manager. Like my ID says, it is normal for issues to crop up. But to us it is important that the contractor is responsible and committed to solve problems. We are grateful that Jake always try his best to rectify the problems that we feedback to him. It was easy to communicate with Jake. We have a whatsapp group with Jake and our ID to discuss about the progress and updates. The day before the furniture and appliances came in, Jake made sure that the everything was cleaned up properly. The parquet was nicely polished, chemical wash done. And he also had the cleaning team wipe away the dust on walls, windows and carpentry. Other than minor paint touch ups and rectification of scratched glass, the house is ready for us to move in. So happy!!!

Hi Nick,

We're also considering Z L as our contractor but for some components (eg. doors) we're getting it ourselves. Did you involve another installer as well and if so, the coordination part is mainly done by Jake or yourself?

Also, can share w me where you bought your 3-pc hexagonal lights in your bedroom? TIA!
