Solar geysers and heat pumps in Pretoria East
Heat your water with the sun or a heat pump instead of the element, and keep the hot water running through load shedding.
The geyser is one of the biggest users of electricity in most homes. A solar geyser or a heat pump takes most of that work off the element, which is why so many Pretoria East homeowners have made the switch.
We install new solar geysers and heat pumps, convert existing electric geysers to solar, and repair and maintain solar hot water systems that someone else put in.

Panels and tank sized for the household and the roof you have.

Solar geyser repairs and maintenance

Choosing between solar and a heat pump
- 1
Solar works best on a north facing roof with good sun most of the day.
- 2
A heat pump works in almost any spot and keeps working on cloudy days, but it still uses a little electricity.
- 3
We will look at your roof, your household and your current geyser, and tell you honestly which one makes sense for you.
Common questions
Can my existing geyser be converted to solar?
Often, yes. If the geyser is in good condition we can add solar heating to it instead of replacing it.
Do you repair solar geysers someone else installed?
Yes. We repair and maintain solar hot water systems regardless of who installed them.
Will I still have hot water during load shedding?
A solar geyser keeps heating from the sun when the power is off, so in most cases yes.
