You try sha, but those doors prices are outrageous. Why people still buying water heater, when they could make one time investment on solar water heater. No electric bill for life. Imagine buying 8pcs of water heater @50k each when you could get solar water heater for same capacity for 500k or little more and you set for 5 - 6 years before replacement if it necessary. Let think and invest wisely.

That's a matter of the user's personal choice.

A user might wish to soak the clothes for a while in very hot water prior to washing. I do sometimes.

OK someone said for washing machine and I made it clear washing machine heats up its own water according to the setting you put it on, Now you say sink? right why would you want warm water from a water heater in the kitchen sink?

Sort the clothes before washing.

I soak my towels (they are not coloured) in hot water and bleach before washing.

Some other fabrics may not survive such treatment so it's advisable to treat them as per manufacturer's instructions.

if necessary “an“. Most of the water heaters as 8-10 years warranty factor Nigeria low quality issues in it probably. If you use the regular electric water heater. Electric bill, or fuel, generator capacity all inclusive = Thousands naira in five years, won’t you choose solar water heater?. I just wake one of my friend up few months ago about same issue with solar lights around the perimeter fence including all the security light in the house, after wasting his money on fueling for few years, on big generator. He finally agreed with me and decided to switch and reduce his bill drastically.

yes incase you want to wash something with warm water, like dry fish, Okporoko, or have you not seen a kitchen tap with hot or cold function?

I have. The ONLY reason we have hot water taps in the west is for us to wash the dishes cos it physically imposable to use cold water. Oils will stick to dishes and water will freeze out. To wash fish or food stuff you simply boil an electric kettle less than 4 mins problem solved, I think having a water heater in the kitchen is an over kill.

They won't. They all think they can do direct labour. Until a developer is arrested, tried and convicted, this will continue.
Shortcuts and maximizing profits , it’s our way . Might take 1 in 10 or 20 or 30 projects for catastrophe to happen , some risks are not worth it for me , may we not be tempted

Good evening house,

Please I need some advice about all these fence security systems.

Should I go for barbed wires or an electric fence wire system?

Please, how much does each cost per square meter or plot?

Thanks
