    Hi all,

    Thanks for your input on other info I've asked for.

    Next up is water heaters.

    Can anyone give me pointers, I've no clue here.

    Thanks

    We don't use one - I actually prefer washing with cold water now!

    Boil a kettle for the occasional day when it's below 28 for the kids... however I was in The New Citi Hardware yesterday - they do a lot of the ones you can put in the shower (P3k to P10k - with free fitting - assuming you already have the electrical socket) and a couple of those small water heaters you'd have probably found near the kitchen sink in an old bedsit/small flat in UK.

    Cheers guys.

    I've always enjoyed the cold showers, but mainly want as my parents will visit and I don't know how my toddler will react to cold showers after being used to warm baths here in the UK.

    I guess an electric shower may be the answer.

    Up to you, but really it's not an issue...and a great way to be woken up in the morning...adult or child (in the case of ours). Even then, the water is lukewarm, rather than cold, here in the tropics.

    Electricity is expensive here, so for me, the less used, the better. :like:
