Storage Water Heater System is a hot tank system for multipoint solution which operates with mixer tap system and can supply to more than 1 shower point such as bathtub, jacuzzi, rainshower, sink or basin or washing machine.
Difference between Storage Water Heater & Instant Water Heater

1 Power Point
Hot & Cold Pipes
Instant Water Heater
Instant water heater is called instantaneous single point system which heats up cold water instantly to warm water after passing through the heating element without waiting time.

Here are few tips to consider before buying a storage water heater:
1. Check the piping system in the house.
HOT & COLD PIPING SYSTEM
Prior to installation of storage water heater, the hot and cold piping system must be installed behind the tiles of the bathroom concealed for neat installation. Check below for the types of piping to use for the cold and hot piping system.
Types of Pipes
MIXER TAP SYSTEM
The hot and cold piping system must be connected to the mixer tap system to mix the cold and hot water that produces the right temperature for use. Different types of mixer tap are available from thermostastic control to the twist and turn lever system.
Types of Mixer Taps
2. Check ceiling space in your home for installation above the ceiling.
MANHOLE ACCESS
Manhole should be beside or nearby the unit to enable easy access for maintainance work. The size of the manhole should be around 1 1/2 feet or bigger for easy access to the unit.
CEILING HEIGHT
Check the ceiling space on top plaster ceiling in order to install the tank on the concrete wall. Make sure there is ceiling allowance of 2 feet to position the storage water heater.
3. Check the water pressure by checking the distance from water tank.
Water Pressure System
from Water Tank:
If water pressure is from the water tank and your home is 2-3 storeys high, generally you will need a water pump.
Water Pressure System with
Centralised Booster Pump:
Getting a Centralised Booster Pump will boost your water pressure at least 2 bar and storage water heater can supply hot water to your shower point.
4. Check the distance between bathrooms
SHARING UNIT FOR 2 BATHROOM
Less than 15 Feet Away
2 Bathroom (Side by side)
The closer the unit to the point eliminates time taken for hot water to reach the point of use
Saves waiting time and reduces water wastage
SPLIT UNIT FOR 1 BATHROOM
More than 15 Feet Away
Individual Bathroom
The closer the unit to the point eliminates time taken for hot water to reach the point of use
Saves waiting time and reduces water wastage

What is JOVEN Heat Elevator™ (HE) Technology?
Heat Elevator (HE) technology is the world’s first innovation that uses patent pending magnetic device that accelerate the convective heat transfer and improve heat stratification in water. This magnetic device is uniquely designed to weaken the inter-molecular bonding energy and accelerate the movement of water molecules to improve heating efficiency.
- Joven Heat Elevator has been widely recognized by leading certification bodies in Singapore
*Available for JSH Series With Heat Elevator (HE) Models only
How Does It Work?
The comparative photos shows the effect of HE which cause more heat loops than conventional storage water heater. The heated water is spread wider across the heater tank, thus ensuring less heat trapped at the heating element, therefore prolong the heating element life and generate more hot water in the tank.

- Test results are courtesy from TUV SUD PSB PTE LTD.
- Test method is based on USA test guidelines (DOE 10CFR Part 430) as specified by Singapore Standard (SS 530:2006)
- Incoming water condition: temperature 14.4°C, pressure 2.75 bar & flow rate 11.4 Litre/min.
- Result varies and are based on 25L to 91L capacities.
- Available for JSH models only.
