Solar Geysers

Picture1
Solar water heating has been used commercially around the world for more than 50 years. In several countries it is mandatory to have a solar water system in every home! The great advantage of solar water heating is that it will reduce your electricity bill by more than 30%.

Why should you install Solar Water Heating?

Following is a list of benefits that you will harness from a Solar Geyser System:
  • Cost Saving - from the savings on electricity you will be able to pay for the Solar heating system in a few years. After this your hot water is free!
  • An Investment - Installing a solar heating system adds to the value of your property and constantly saves you on running costs.
  • Environmentally Friendly - Solar energy is clean energy - no pollution and no exploitation of limited natural resources.
  • Consistency of Supply - With a solar water heating system you will have hot water even during blackouts and erratic power supply.
  • Aesthetically Pleasing - The split system allows for a discreet installation.
  • Reduce your demand for electricity - Reducing your demand for electricity by almost half can eliminate expensive upgrade of your supply infrastructure.
  • Free hot water - An average winter's day in Africa generates sufficient solar energy to provide all your hot water without using electricity.

Economic Benefits of Solar Heating:
  • In the average home almost half of the electricity consumption is attributed to heating water. Solar Heating system is capable of saving you more than 80% of the water heating costs, reducing your electricity bill by nearly half.

  • You Will Recoup Your Investment:  The savings you will achieve on your electricity bills by harnessing free solar energy from the sun means that you will recover the cost of your initial investment in a few short years. It is possible to do simple calculations that will compare energy savings with the capital cost and arrive at what is known as a "payback period".
  • You will be able to pay for the geyser from your savings on electricity in less than 4 years for a new building. After this you save the electricity every month! (Payback Period: 4 Years, see example to the right).
