Residential hot water solutions
Modern solar and heat pump systems can keep swimming pools warm, heat your home’s water and heat your home’s interior space. Their popularity is increasing for several reasons. Solar heating systems are cost saving, reliable, adaptable and pollution-free because they use renewable energy from the sun. Modern systems include sleek, attractive, low-relief collectors that blend in with the look of the modern house.
Out of all the different technologies available, solar water heating and heat pump water heating systems will provide the best saving and return on investment.
The key benefits of installing a heat pump

Heat pump technology
Heat pump technology is one of the cutting edge technologies when it comes to renewable energy water heating products. Even though this technology has been used in South Africa for heating water for many decades, the recent increase in international demand has brought the component costs down, making the product affordable for the residential and commercial users. Using the refrigeration cycle to extract energy from the surrounding air (indirectly using solar energy) it can provide you with up to 60ºC hot water day or night, winter or summer at a quarter of the cost of electrical geyser element heating.
