How Solar Geysers Work

Solar geysers harness the sun’s thermal energy through collectors to heat water, storing it in an insulated tank. This significantly cuts electricity use and monthly energy bills. In South Africa, where geysers consume substantial electricity and load shedding is common, solar geysers are a smart investment.

Solar Geyser Systems are either direct (water flows through the collector) or indirect (a heat transfer fluid heats the water), with indirect systems better for frost-prone areas and direct systems ideal for warmer, coastal regions. Most modern units include an electrical backup for cloudy days or high demand. For optimal efficiency, longevity, and safety, invest in a SANS-approved system and professional installation.

Our Solar Geyser Solutions

We offer a range of solar geyser options to suit various needs and budgets

Closed-Coupled Systems (Roof Mounted)

Ideal for properties with sufficient roof space, these systems feature the geyser tank and collector mounted together on the roof, using natural convection (thermosiphon) to circulate water without a pump.

Split Systems (Pumped)

For aesthetics or limited roof space, the geyser tank can be located inside your roof or in a suitable plant room, with a circulating pump moving water between the tank and roof-mounted collectors.

Retrofit Installations

We can convert your existing electric geyser into a solar-powered system by adding high-efficiency solar collectors and necessary components, maximising your investment.

New Installations

For new builds or complete upgrades, we install brand-new, purpose-built solar geyser systems perfectly sized for your household or commercial hot water demands.
