The typical electricity bill is R1,700 per month and 30-50% of that is for water heating. Using our solar system you can save up to 70% of the water heating cost. The saving per month is approximately 35% or R595. It will therefore take just over 16 months for the solar system to pay for itself.

Heat Pump Systems
In certain circumstances a Solar water heating system is not appropriate. In these cases GeoSolar provides a heat pump system.
A heat pump is a highly efficient, cost effective method of heating water. It utilises the sun's free energy by extracting heat from the sun-warmed air and transferring it efficiently to the water. Because the heat pump moves the free heat from the outside air to the water, rather than create heat (as a fossil fuel or electric resistance heater does) it can heat your geyser water for up to 70% less cost than these other less efficient methods.
As the ambient temperature changes, the heating output of a heat pump will vary. However, even when temperatures are cooler, the heat pump continues to transfer heat between air and water. Heat pumps are designed to operate between -15°C and 40°C ambient temperature.
On a typical South African day, the heat pump will provide the 4kW of heating required for a 200 litre geyser with only 800W of electrical input. By contrast electrical elements require 4kW of electrical energy to generate 4kW of heat energy.
