Whether you need a compact unit for a small flat or a large-capacity geyser for a busy family home, we have the right solution for you.
1. Storage Electric Geysers
Storage geysers are the most common type found in Gauteng homes. They heat and store a set volume of water, ready for use whenever you need it. These geysers come in various sizes, typically ranging from 50 to 250 liters. We install trusted models from leading brands such as:

2. Instant (Tankless) Electric Geysers
For those who want hot water on demand without the need for a storage tank, instant electric geysers are perfect. These units heat water as it flows through the system, saving energy by eliminating standby heat loss. Our team installs top models like:
Ariston Andris2 – compact and energy-saving, ideal for kitchens and small bathrooms
Dawlance Instant Water Heater – efficient with easy installation
3. Heat Pump Electric Geysers
Heat pump geysers are becoming increasingly popular in Gauteng due to their high energy efficiency and eco-friendly operation. These systems use ambient air to heat water, reducing electricity consumption significantly. We install models such as:
Calorex Heat Pump Series – perfect for homeowners seeking long-term savings
Rheem Heat Pump Water Heaters – combining modern technology with reliability
4. Solar-Electric Hybrid Geysers
If you want to maximize energy savings while having a reliable electric backup, solar-electric hybrid geysers are an excellent choice. They use solar energy for most of the heating and switch to electricity when needed. Our installation experts work with brands like:
Solarus Hybrid Geysers
Calorex Solar Boost
No matter which type of electric geyser you choose, Gauteng Geyser Experts ensure professional installation following all safety standards and SANS compliance. We also offer expert advice on the best models and sizes to fit your home’s hot water needs and budget.
