Types of Water Heater We Install

Each heater type serves different spaces and usage patterns. We advise the best fit for your home layout and daily hot water demand.

Instant Water Heater

On-demand heating with no tank. Compact, energy-efficient, heats water instantly when you turn on the tap. Ideal for small flats, studios or compact kitchens with moderate usage.

Storage Tank Heater

Large capacity cylinder with heating element. Provides abundant hot water for multiple users. Requires dedicated wall or floor space. Common in HDB and condo units for whole-house hot water.

Multipoint System

Heat exchanger that supplies hot water to multiple outlets. Efficient for larger homes with kitchen, bathroom and secondary areas needing simultaneous hot water access.

Heat Pump Water Heater

Energy-efficient system that extracts ambient heat. Lower operating cost over time, but requires adequate space and electrical capacity. Great for sustainability-conscious homeowners.
