4.5 kW heat pump
One day
Your existing tank
South Peninsula
Your geyser is quietly eating your electricity bill
The element in your geyser burns electricity all day, and the geyser sits among the biggest lines on your monthly bill.
Every winter the bill climbs, and load-shedding leaves the family with cold showers.

Frequently asked questions
Is my tank even suitable, or will I find out after paying that I need a new one?
We check your tank on the site visit before fitting starts. We only fit the pump if your tank is in good condition.
Will this actually pay for itself, or is the saving overstated?
For a family of four, it pays back in 3 to 5 years.
Can my existing geyser pipework and plumbing be used for a heat pump installation?
Often, yes. The site visit checks your tank, your roof space and where the unit can go before we confirm.
What size heat pump do I need to replace my current geyser?
We confirm it suits your setup on the site visit.
How long does it take to install a heat pump in place of a geyser?
Book a site visit on WhatsApp and we will walk you through it.
How much does it cost to swap a geyser for a heat pump?
The Heat-Pump Switch Package is from R24 500 excl. VAT. Book a site visit on WhatsApp and we will confirm your number.
Ready when you are
Swap your geyser's electric element for a 4.5 kW heat pump and heat the same water on about a third of the power. Book a site visit on WhatsApp and we'll come to you, check the tank and roof space and tell you straight if a timer is the smarter spend.
