Gas Geyser Prices

Also known as gas water heaters, gas geysers do not have water reservoirs and heat the water as it runs through the unit. Prices of gas geysers are between R2400 to R9900. 

Since they work with gas, you don’t need an electrical supply for your gas geyser to work. Gas geysers are the most energy-efficient geysers available with capacities ranging from 5 litres to 20 litres.

If you were wondering what is the cost of a gas geyser, here is a handy guide to the cost of gas geysers: 

5 litre Gas Geyser	R2400- R7000
10 litre Gas Geyser	R3600 – R8000
12 litre Gas Geyser	R4000 – R8500
16 litre Gas Geyser	R5000 – R9700
20 litre Gas Geyser	R6500 – R9900

Smaller capacity gas geysers (5l to 10l) are great for camping and can heat one tap or a kitchen sink. 

Larger capacity gas geysers allow you to run a shower, bath, washing machine or main tap, simultaneously depending on the size. The larger the capacity gas geyser, the more hot water it can provide.

Types of Gas Geysers

There are 3 main gas geyser types: 

• Standard or manual gas geysers
• Constant temperature gas geysers
• Forced fan gas geysers

Standard/Manual Gas Geysers

Standard or manual gas geysers are great if you only need one tap with hot water and live in a small flat or single-storey home.

Sizes of standard (manual) geysers range from 6 litres to 20 litres and are perfect if you live alone and are on a budget.

• Cannot provide hot water to multiple taps
• Not able to set at a specific temperature
• Unable to supply water upstairs
• Sensitive to water pressure fluctuations

Constant Temperature Gas Geysers

Constant temperature gas geysers allow you to set your water at an exact temperature. They are very similar to standard gas geysers, but they have a keypad where you can set your water temperature.

Forced fan gas geysers may have a high initial cost, but they will save you lots of money in the long term as they are very gas-efficient.

They normally come with long warranties and can also run on generators or your current solar power water system. 

Below are some benefits and downsides to forced fan gas geysers:

• Very gas-efficient
• Precise water temperature can be selected
• Not sensitive to fluctuating water pressure
• Often come with a 10-year warranty
• Able to provide hot water upstairs
