Geyser repairs, replacements and installations

Burst geyser? Switch off the geyser at the distribution board, close the water supply to the geyser (or the main stopcock) and call us on 021 788 1114 – we’re on call 24/7.
Electric geysers
Electric geysers use heating elements and thermostats to control water temperature and power use, and pressure and temperature valves to keep the system safe. We repair and replace elements, thermostats and valves, and install new geysers to code.

Solar geysers
With electricity costs rising, many homeowners are moving to solar geysers. In some cases you can save up to 30% on your monthly electricity bill, and the savings can pay off the system within two to three years.
- Hot water during power outages
- Lower electricity costs
- Better for the environment
- Pays for itself over time
No water wasted with Wattapac
When we replace a geyser, our own Wattapac system pumps the water out of the old geyser into a heavy-duty bag and back into the new one – so no water is lost and there are no spills.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you handle burst geyser insurance claims?
Yes. We install your new geyser, issue the SANS 10254 compliance certificate insurers require, and advise you on how to process your claim. We are an appointed OUTsurance service provider.
What is a SANS 10254 certificate?
It is the compliance certificate that confirms your geyser was installed according to the national standard. Insurance companies require it after a geyser installation.
Can you make my geyser more energy efficient?
Yes – we install geyser blankets and timers, and can advise on solar geyser options to reduce your electricity costs.
Do you repair geysers or only replace them?
Both. We replace elements, thermostats and valves, and install new electric and solar geysers when a repair no longer makes sense.
Are you available after hours for burst geysers?
Yes. Our office is open Mon–Fri 8am–5pm and our plumbers are on call 24/7 for emergencies.
