THE important issues when looking for a good solar water heater are cost, capacity, and maximum temperatures.
Top solar heaters
THE important issues when looking for a good solar water heater are cost, capacity, and maximum temperatures.Most thermosyphon solar heater heaters exhibit a maximum tem- perature of 65 to 75C on sunny days, with a cost efficiency of
RM0.60 to RM0.32 per, daily kilocalorie.
Microsolar Coaxial Multivalve Heaters deliver the highest temperatures, with maximum temperatures of 95C to 100C on sunny
days. This gives RM0.25 per daily kilocalorie. The high performance means that the Microsolar can operate totally without electricity backup, or with minimum electric backup if one is required at all.
The Microsolar Coaxial Multivalve M60V'rHE 264 litres is capable of reaching maximum temperatures of 100C from 10C within six hours of full sunshine (tested without any electricity being allowed), This rate of temperature rise and maximum temperature is unmatched by any other thermosyphon solar water heater in the world.
The Microsolar now comes with a pressurized indirect heating copper twin coil heat exchanger for long term lifespan and sediment resistant low maintenance, using the latest robotic tungsten argon gas welding stainless steel 304 hot water storage tanks, mirror finish 304 stainless steel concentrating parabolic reflectors, 60mm high pressure injected polyurethane foam insulation, 30 nos high temperature borosilicate evacuated glass vacuum tubes 58mm x 1800ram.
Microsolar has 30 solar heating tubes in the collector panel but crucially gives 60 valves (30 inlet valves and 30 outlet valves) between the collector and the tank for unrestricted free flowing heat collection.

As a TV host-journalist-emcee, fashion is an integral part of Xandria eel's life.
Maxima style
As a TV host-journalist-emcee, fashion is an integral part of Xandria eel's life. Naturally, for someone who owns heaps of
clothes, shoes and accessories, a wardrobe is needed to match.
So when Ooi was doing extensive research in preparation for an interview with Maxima's founder SN Tai for a television program, she discovered that a Maxima wardrobe was exactly what she needed at her new home in 6ukit Jelutong, Shah Alam.
Stepping into eel's Maxima X-1000 series walk-in wardrobe is certainly a sight. With a space as big as an average-sized bedroom. all of eel's elothin8 items are compartmentalised in carefully thousht-out spaces.
One will not miss the striking display of shoes on one dedicated side of the wall, where Ooi says she can see each and every pair of shoes, instead of storing them in shoe boxes.
"This is where I can express my style and showcase my creativity in fashion," explains Ooi. "i try not to cramp everything in, as I want to create a boutiquefeel when I look at my clothes," she adds, referring to rows of tops, jackets and dresses in the wardrobe.
The self-confessed fashionista has also specifically asked for a jewellery island. "rm a huge jewellery fan. I collect a lot of jewellery and I wanted a oface where I can display and see them every day." However. the island unit in the X-1000 series does not come equipped with pull-out jewellery compartments, To fulfil eel's request, Maxima integrated the X-2000 series pull-out unit over a see-through glass top, creating a perfect dis- play area for eel's extensive collection of necklaces, bangles and earrings.
"I like that the doors are equipped with anti-jump system, which prevents them from sliding off the rails when I open or
close them," Ooi concludes.
To get a Maxima wardrobe for your home, visit Maxima's Showrooms at the following locations:

Experiencing the empty nest syndrome
Experiencing the empty nest syndrome
Businessman Bob ziegler, 56, and his wife Saminah Subari are about to experience the "empty-nest" syndrome as their tour grown-up children are in various stages of spreading their wings.
Already the couple's three-storey detached house iu Ukay Heights feels quite "empty". One of their children had already moved out while two are working outstation leaving only one child staying in the big house with them.
The property spans 810sq m (9,000 sq ft) with a garden that occupies 315sq m (3,500 sq ft). Built-up space is 675sq m (7,500 sq ft).
Bob and Saminah represent an increasing number of owners of large bungalows and detached houses in choice residential areas, who want to sell their properties to move to smaller and more manageable homes.
The couple bought their Ukay Heights house in 1992. Back then the children were young and the couple loved the spacious
property for the kids to run around.
The Mediterranean style house was perfect for the family of six plus a maid in tow but now the house is just too big.
Bob, who is originally from Kentucky in the United States, came to Malaysia in the 1970s as a Peace Corps volunteer. He decided to settle in Malaysia and started a home accessories business. He exported curtain rods and other wood products to the U.S, and Europe.
As his family grew, Bob and his wife scouted for a new home in Ampang. They decided that Ukay Heights was the perfect place.
Explains Bob: "The house is nestled among the hills of Ukay Heights. The convenient location offers a good balance in having a serene atmosphere with easy access to the city and amenities.
"The property is a corner lot as well. With access roads in the neighbourhood not heavy with traffic, there is quiet relief in the cul-desac community."
The three-storey house faces north. The ground floor (middle level) comprises a large reception hall, an atrium, main dining-room, balcony dining niche and main kitchen.
The covered porch can accommodate two cars and there's ample space for three more cars on the driveway.
The open-style design of the ground floor allows for good air-flow and views of the gardens. Even in the hot afternoon, the living areas remain cool.
A staircase in the kitchen leads to the lower level, which comprises the pool, a bedroom and separate quarters for the maid or house-keeper. The laundry room, wet kitchen and work area are also located here.
Access to the gardens is possible from both the lower level and the ground level.
The gardens (front lawn. side terrace and backyard) are well kept with many bonsai and tropical plants. There is also a Jackfruit tree that fruits throughout the year. One section of the backyard can be closed off for pets.
There are five bedrooms, four bathrooms and a multi-purpose room that can be used either as a guest room, store or gymnasium. There is also a housekeeper's room for two maids. The maid's quarters come complete with its own passageway, bathroom, laundr~ area and wet kitchen.
The master bedroom on the top floor has budt-in cabinets, en-suite bathroom and a Juliette balcony that overlooks the main gate.
The lounge on the top floor is where the family gathers in the evenings. When opened, the two double-doors allow in plenty of light and airflow as well as views of the picturesque neighbourhood.
Connected to the upstairs family lounge are two other bedrooms, perfect for parents who want to have their young children sleeping close by their own room, There is also a decent-sized study for the man or lady of the house to do paperwork or turn it into a private space, And the entire top floor can be secured by locking up the passage door.
According to Bob, when it comes to festivals and parties, the formal dining area on the ground floor, balcony as well as the patio next to the pool, allow for big get-togethers.
"Even the balcony dining area can be utilised to allow for 20 or more people to enjoy a meal together.
"By opening up the entire ground floor, one can accommodate up to 40 guests. For large functions, the two main levels can comfort-ably accommodate double that number ofguests."
For Bob and his wife, the Mediterranean features of the house such as arches, marble flooring and intricate ironwork (which is actually a security device) are not only deedrative in design but are functional as well.
"This style is common in the hot climes of Mediterranean areas, such as Spain, for example. This house design has been proven over the centuries to be functional. The heavy stone or marble construction creates a large heat-sink which provides the home with a natural coolness that one cannot easily obtain by artificial means.
"The high ceilings further enhance the openness of the design which is apparent with the arches, The house has a great deal of character and was designed for a warm family living environment, It is spacious, quiet, and cool which provides for a calm and relaxing atmosphere," adds Bob.
The asking price for the house is RM3 million.
"The house has been our family's dream home to raise our four children. Now that they are all grown, nothing would please us more than to see our home pass to another family and maybe help make their dreams come true too."

Cleaner Home, Healthier Living
Cleaner Home, Healthier Living
DO you know that the air circulating inside your home may be dirtierlhan outside? This is mainly due to dust mites and allergens that can also cause mild to severe allergies especially in young children.
Most homes have vacuum cleaners.However, the normal vacuum cleaner may not clear efficiently enough. A normal vacuum cleaner uses dust bags to trap dirt, and over time, it becomes an ideal breeding ground for dust mites, bacteria, fungus and other harmful particles.
Without proper filtration at the exhaust, a normal vacuum cleaner blows harmful particles back into the room, hence dirtying the air that you and the children breathe in. Karcher from Germany has developed a Water-Filter Vacuum Cleaner (pic) to do the perfect cleaning job. The Karcher Water-Filter Vacuum Cleaner uses water to trap dust and dirt.
Dust and dirt is dissolved in water, so there isn't any need for a dust bag and the suction remains consistently powerful.in addition, the Karcher system includes a HEPA filter which traps 99.9% of all particles over 0.3 microns, so that means the dust mites; bacteria and most of the other harmful particles can be removed.
With the combination of the water filter and an additional HEPA filter, Karoher has achieved a new standard in vacuuming. HEPA filters are normally used in electronic clean rooms and surgical the- atres. This additional HEPA class filter provides the final barrier to trap harmful particles, so that the air that comes out of the Kircher vacuum cleaner is much cleaner than the normal air you breathe.
Karcher offers you a product with precision German engineering and assurance of quality to guarantee operational reliability with very low maintenance cost.
This machine makes cleaning a breeze and helps provide a cleaner home and a healthier lifestyle for you and your family. Take good care of your loved ones and give them the best there is. You will be amazed with the cleaning results.

In our home, they are an indispensable part of our sliding door, living hall, staircase or bedroom windows, even in bathrooms.
Glass up your home
Glass seems to be almost everywhere. In our home, they are an indispensable part of our sliding door, living hall, staircase or bedroom windows, even in bathrooms. In architecture, glass
constitutes to a building's fat;ado, creating an exceptional contrast of linearity and smoothness.
Wherever they are, glass is a vehicle, which architects and interior designers employ to move, bend and capture light.
Today's sophisticated homeowners performing renovation works to their abodes are after a distinctive look. Doesn't everyone want "something the guy next door doesn't have" at the main entrance or the living hall? Elaborate shapes, beveling,overlays, sand blasted patterns, grooves incised on the glass, laminating and experimenting with fabric and textures all fit the tune.
There are several key options you should consider when you use glass in your home. First the aesthetic factor, which encompasses the interior setting or the mood to which you wish to impart in that given space.
Colours and design themes can be incorporated to the glass to help enhance the space you interact with.
Next, the glass itself is with-out boundary, yet breathes space in between, Treating a piece of glass to increase privacy and safety level are equally important as to the aesthetic value of it. At 6GO's designer glass studio, these two important factors work side by side.
"We cannot have a beautiful piece of art glass that creates a focal point in your home, yet does not possess inherent safety features. This is dangerous," says Gary Lim, the owner of SGO Designer Glass. Breathtaking art glasses should capture the imagination of the viewer and eliminate the concern of the danger of glass itself.
* To take glass to the next level in your precious home, please call SGO Designer Glass at 03-6157 2127.

What's in a stone - stone comes with a label
What's in a stone
If natural stone comes with a label, it would read: "I am a natural material. I am an individual unlike any other. Colour
and texture variations are inherent and make me beautiful. Imperfections are not defects but part of my charm.
Take good care of me and I will reward you with a lifetime of beauty."
According to Sim Yen Penn of Marble Emporium (M) Sdn Bbd, homeowners who re-building or re-modeling their homes would most likely have come across doubts on authenticity of the products and its use.
Truth is. much of what you have heard is presumably a combination of truth and fiction.
Below are some simple and concise explanations on the different types of stones available in the market.
What is marble?
Marble occurs naturally as the result of extreme heat and pressure applied to limestone.
The distinctive crystalline structure of marble allows it to be polished to high gloss giving an illusion of depth.
This is the more traditional and commonly recognised form of marble and creates an opulent mirror-like finish to be used, for example in a premium bathroom or large hallway. Marble is also available in matt finish.
What is granite?
Granite is a tremendously strong, versatile and durable natural stone; so many of the structures in which granite has
been used over the centuries are still standing.
Granite is an igneous rock formed in a very dense manner with no pores due to extreme pressure within the Earth.
The slow cooling caused the main minerals of granite to grow to easily visible sizes resulting in a multitude of often-unexpected colours that can be used to create that special driveway or beautiful and functional kitchen counter top.
What is limestone?
Limestone is a soft marble formed over millions of years from seashells and bones of sea creatures settling on the ocean
bed; hence it is called a sedimentary stone.
Calcium in the bones and shells combines with carbon dioxide in the water to form calcium carbonate, a basic mineral
structure of all limestone and marble. The result is a smooth chalky natural stone that often come with deep-set fossils creating fantastic visual effect.
The feeling of calmness and serenity can be conveyed to a room using this material.
What is Travertine?
Beautiful travertine falls somewhere between limestone and marble, separated by approximately 20 million years of rock formation, where dissolved limestone has been allowed to mix with steam under enormous pressure.
Travertine also began as limestone, which over time, duo to its porous nature, absorbed water. Heated by the Earth's
inner core, water rose as steam and hot pressurised water to hot mud baths.
The rising hot water, dissolves the limestone and brings with it granules from below, forming mud beds on the surface.
Over time, the mud beds cool and they crystallise into solid stone called travertine.
This material!easily evokes a feeling of antiquity within any room in your abode.
Hopefully these explanations would give homeowners a better understanding of natural stones and help them in their selection process.
Marble Emporium's showroom is open from Monday to Friday, l0am to 7pro and on Saturday, 1lam to 6pm. They are also open
on Sundays and public holidays by appointments.
Please contact Sire Yen Penn at 012-219 3229.

the advent of timber technology, what used to be just solid floor
A New Era
WITH the advent of timber technology, what used to be just solid floor that needed to be installed, grinded and lacquered hasevolved to simple installation.
And it can be engineered, laminated, pre-finished in different styles.
Engineered timber flooring is widely accepted as the most stable type of wood flooring in environments where moisture is a
concern,An inherent characteristic of timber is the absorption and drying of moisture, which causes structural expansion and
contraction.
As an internal floor covering, this will mean gapping, warping, cupping or buckling risks for solid wood floors.
Engineered timber flooring addresses these inherent weaknesses by massaging the structure to reduce theserisks considerably.
By virtue of its stable structure, traditional rules in owning wood flooring have been rewritten.
No more lengthy installation times, messy grindmg, subsequent repairs or worries that it might warp one day, This stability allows the product coating to be applied at the factory, hence avoiding the neeo for on-site grinding and subsequent varnishing.
An added uonus is that the coating can be UV cured at factory, making the proauct surface more durable than the conventional hand-applied PU coating used for on-site varnishing of solid timber floors.
MORI floor ensures superior structural stability and is environmentally friendly.
If you want the floor to be soft for your children's room, floating installation with foam or rubber can be done, If you want it hard for your dining area, it can be glued down directly. MORI's Engineered Hardwood Flooring with its multi-layered system can be installed in various methods.

the kitchen becoming more or less the focus of family life
What's cooking?
WITH the kitchen becoming more or less the focus of family life, it is thus important that we try to maintain a cosy and comfortable ambience at all times.
Cooker hoods are not only an essential component in keeping your kitchen free of grease, they also add to a bold and distinctively designed kitchen.
PACIFIC is the market leader for turbo cooker hoods, and their range of hoods come with high-performance turbine motors and
designed with deep chambers to provide strong centrifugal suction power.
PACIFIC's latest offering is the all-new Titania T90, with both AutoClean and SolarClean functionalities. PACIFIC's SolarClean utilises a unique, patented system that incorporates the photocatalyst Titanium Dioxide and Ultra-Violet ("UV') light to help recreate the Sun's powerful sanitisation ability.
A safe and non-toxic process, it is said to remove 99.99% of toxic gasses, microscopic germs, dust and bacteria so that your family can be kept out of harm's way.
Though cleaning is considered a major hassle for most, you don't have to worry about that with the AutoClean function.
Activate by the press of a button, and a high-speed jet-spray will blast a stream of cleaning fluid directly into the turbine motors of your hood, which will spin at an extremely high rate to effectively clean all the internal parts of the hood.
This is especially important for Asian cooking, which produces a considerable amount of grease, steam and oily fumes.

iROBOT RESCUE - most powerful and efficient vacuuming robot
iROBOT RESCUE
IROBOT Corp. recently introduced its smartest, most powerful and efficient vacuuming robot: the new iRobot Roomba 500 series of Vacuum Cleaning Robots.
Based on feedback from more than two million buyers since Roomba's introduction five years ago, iRobot has reinvented its
flagship home robot to deliver 100% improved vacuum performance for a cleaner home, every day.
With the Roomba 500 series, iRobot raises the IQ of home care further. The new robots can free themselves from almost any
household jam, minimising the need to prep rooms before Roomba begins cleaning. Using wireless technology, the robots now know when they have finished cleaning one room and to move on to the next.
"It took three years and the latest in robot technology innovations to create appliances that can clean as effectively and
autonomously as the new Roomba 500 series.
"Life today is so busy, we rarely have the time or the energy to clean our homes as often as we'd like. If you wish you could have clean floors every day, this one's for you," said Sandra Lawrence, president of iRobat Home Robots.
The iRobot Reomba 500 series includes the following new features:
* A solid, heavy-duty design featuring modular components for enhanced durability and easy servicing;
* Anti-tangle technology so Roomba can extract itself from tassels and cord tangles;
* iRobot's proprietary built-in, light-touch intelligent sensing system that can detect when Roomba is approaching a wall or obstacle and automatically slow the robot down for a gentler impact and quieter operation;
* One-button activation; simply press "clean" and go;
* A built-in voice tutorial for new users that demonstrates Roomba's features right out of the box;
* A new mobility platform that allows Roomba to travel on thicker carpets, climb higher thresholds, and transition easily
between floor surfaces;
* New re-designed dustbin holds significantly more debris;
The iRobot Roomba 530, priced at RM2, 188, includes all of these features and cleans up to three standard rooms before returning to its Home Base to recharge. Roomba 530 also comes with a standard Virtual Wall that confines the robot to a certain area using an infrared beam.
The iRobot Roomba 560, priced at RM2, 389, includes two Virtual Wall Lighthouses. These mini-towers - just 10cm tall (4.25 inches) and about 9cm(3.5 inches) wide -- help orient Roomba via radio frequency (RF) communications and guideRoomba systematically through the home. The Virtual Wall Lighthouses confine the Roomba to one room until that room is thoroughly cleaned, and then guide Roomba into the next room.
Once the Roomba 560 finishes its cleaning, or if its battery is running low, the Virtual Wall Lighthouses direct the robot to its Home Base to dock and recharge.
Roomba 560 also includes an on-board scheduling function, so it can be programmed to automatically clean up to seven days
a week, even when owners are away.
All Roomba 500 series robots include iRobot'S patented threestage cleaning system that auto matically adjusts to clean carpets and hard floors.
Roamba's intelligent cleaning system evaluates its environment at 67 times per second so that it always delivers the right
amount of cleaning power to your floor. The new iRobot Roomba 500 is now available nationwide.

HomeSeal your house - best to keep these unwanted guests outside our homes.
HomeSeal your house
OUR home environment often has to put up with the invasion of mosquitoes and other pesky insects that might pose a danger to our health and wellbeing.lt is best to keep these unwanted guests outside our homes.
To do this, you can choose from a wide range of insect screens, ranging from the conventional aluminum types to the modern and more up-marketroller and magnetic screens.
Aside from pricing, aesthetics and functionality are also key considerations. There are homeowners who would rather put up with noxious smoke from mosquito coils, chemical sprays and closed windows than to ruin their home d~cor with the unsightly frames and bulky protrusions of most conventional aluminum screen systems.
Roller screens can be troublesome at times due to the mechanism involved.
The magnetic insect screen on the other hand is a simple contraption that is easy to use and maintain.
It is almost invisible to the eyes when the screen is mounted unobtrusively on to the grille or window frame.
This innovative insect screening system was introduced by HomeSeal Marketing about ten years ago. To date, HomeSeal still specialises in this system and aims to maintain market leadership in this segment.
HomeSeal magnetic insect screen makes use of magnetic strips that are about 12mm (half an inch) wide and 1.5mm thick with adhesive to stick on grilles and window frames.
A similar strip frames the screen, which allows for a snapback action to ensure a perfect fit.
The screen is made of fiberglass mesh that is non-combustible, ultraviolet stabilized as well as rot and stain proof.
Unlike many conventional aluminum screens, HomeSeal magnetic screens allow free flow of fresh air into the home and are easy to clean.
Just dislodge the light screen and wipe with a damp cloth or flush with water and then wipe dry and put back into place.
Usage of the screen is just as convenient as it can be easily lifted up from the base for the opening of the window as retaining clips keep the screen in place.
Every screen is tailor-made for windows or doors, with a choice of colours to match your home decor.
All gaps will be covered at no extra charge to ensure a complete seal.
Being among the pioneers of magnetic insect screens with a ten-year established presence, HomeSeal is confident of satisfying customers in terms of quality and service expectations.
A five- year warranty is the company's assurance for your peace of mind. Each customer will receive a warranty card with instructions on the upkeep of the screens and a bott!e of screen care solvent to maintain the screens in good condition.

Pursuing perfection - beautiful hardwood floors is a journey of discovery inspired by a deep appreciation of Nature
At Netwood, the path to beautiful hardwood floors is a journey of discovery inspired by a deep appreciation of Nature's most versatile building material.Wood flooring in Malaysian homes has certainly come a long way since the parquet floors of the 80's. Once considered high maintenance and impractical for everyday living, wood floors are now the flooring of choice for fashionable homeowners at the finest addresses in the country.
The availability and appeal of tropical woods were responsible for the resurgence of plank and strip floors here in the last few years. At the time, most wood-flooring professionals offered only tropical wood flooring solutions. This, however, was not the case at Netwood.
Not only has the hardwood flooring specialist been instrumental in bringing an exciting range of imported hardwood species from temperate regions including Europe and North America to our shores, the company has the experience and expertise required to bring out the best in temperate hardwood floors even in the heat and humidity of the tropics.
The Netwood team's passion for luxurious, meticulously crafted hardwood floors is evident in the extensive trade knowledge they possess.
Raw materials are directly imported from major sawn timber or hardwood flooring manufacturers in prime timber regions for the highest quality assurance. Only top-grade hardwoods from specific countries of origin make the cut at Netwoood.
For example, the company imports beech from Germany as German beech offers greater colour consistency compared to beech grown in other countries. Canadian maple is favoured by the flooring professional over Its North American cousin because the colder Canadian winters only allow for slow growth; resulting in a tighter grain and paler colour that is highly valued among aeslgners and hardwood floor lovers the world over It is this commitment to excellence and vasl knowledge honed by more than a decade's experience in the industry that customers can expect at Netwood.
For homeowners keen on a hardwood floor, Netwood has this invaluable advice to offer-always judge the price by the profile. A standard long.wood strip that is less than 19mm thick will result in an unsightly concave appearance of the strip known as cupping. Thicker strips and planks are costlier but at the end of the day, you will be getting the quality and stability you are paying for.
Netwood brings more than 15 years of industry experience to the table and customers can count on expert advice on the different hardwood species available at the Gallery as well as the right floor installation techniques. The hardwood flooring specialist has also picked up several industry awards for its distinctive hardwood floors along the way. The 2007 National Wood Flooring Association (USA) Wood Floor of the Year Awards saw three winning entries from Netwood alone. The entries were judged on technical difficulty, quality of installation and overall appearance by industry peers.
For the assurance of luxury and uncompromised quality in harowoou floors founded upon years of experience, look no further than Norwood.

Sitting easy - for most working adults
The eight hour work day sees us sitting down most of the time. It is, therefore, vital to understand the true meaning of sitting: how to sit, where to sit, and why to sit.
From childhood we were often taught that the "right way" of sitting is straight 90C upright in order to achieve the best posture. However, as researchers continue to search for the cause of increasing back problems, they recommended otherwise.
Sitting upright contributes higher tension and adds pressure to your spinal column. The medicat survey of the University of Regensburg under direction of Prof. Grifka shows revolutionary findings that your back needs movements for staying healthy.
Permanent movement of the petvic area trains your back muscles. Thus, trained muscles stay elastic and therefore can fulfill the supporting function to the spinal column in a better way, Due to this healthy seating position, distortion of the spinal column and harm due to incorrect sitting can be avoided.
Permanent movement stimulates the sense and movement centre in the human brain and boosts your power of concentration as well as motivation.
Movement assures the blood reflux from your legs through the venous system. Thus, you can avoid prickling extremities. You can prevenl yourself from becoming visually unattractive and, above all, dangerous varicosities.
This revolutionary technology is made in Germany and is available to all Topstar and Wagner Chairs. While seeing is believing, nothing beats the true experience of touch and feel. Chesters Collection is committed to presenting the best seat-ing solution and services to customers.
Topstar and Wagner are available exclusively at Chesters Collection.
