In the average home almost half of electricity
consumption is attributed to heating water with your geyser.
By installing a Home Comfort solar Geyser heating
system and utilising the free energy from the
sun, you can expect a reduction of 33% in your
electricity bill.
Solar Geysers has been used commercially
around the world for more than 50 years. In several
countries it is mandatory to have a solar Geyser
in every home
The Home Comfort solar Geyser comprises a
hot water storage tank and solar heat collector
panels. Through a thermo-siphon effect (in which
hot water rises), hot water circulates between the
collectors and the Geyser while there is sun and is stored
at the end of the day in an insulated Geyser.
All Home Comfort systems are equipped with an
electrical heating element as a back up, controlled by
a thermostat for those odd days when the sun’s
energy is insufficient for water heating.
BENEFITS
- Cost saving – the monthly savings from your solar geyser will pay the monthly instalment on a loan.
Once paid for, your hot
water is free!
- An investment – installing a geyser adds to the value of
your property and constantly saves you
running costs.
- Environmentally friendly – solar energy
is clean energy. No pollution and no
exploitation of limited natural resources
- Consistency of supply – with a solar
geyser you will have hot
water even during blackouts and erratic
power supply.
- Aesthetically pleasing – discreet
installation with only the panel on your
roof. The geyser can be placed either in
the roof, or on top of it.
Reducing your demand for
electricity by one third can
eliminate expensive upgrades
of your supply infrastructure.
In addition, maintenance of a
Home Comfort solar geyser is minimal.
The system is designed to work
uninterrupted for years. It carries a
10-year warranty on the collectors
and geyser, but is expected
to last for more than 20 years, and
features the newest technology
available, developed in conjunction
with Daimler-Benz Aerospace.
To achieve the best results from a
Home Comfort system, the
following requirements apply:
- A solid roof (pitched or flat),
that is exposed to direct
sunlight throughout the day.
- The solar collectors should be
placed facing north.
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.
You will be able to pay for the solar
geyser from your savings on
electricity in less than 4 years.
After this you save the electricity
every month!
