“While there are energy alternatives available during loadshedding, developing alternate water sources is more difficult. South Africans must brace themselves for regular water cuts in the foreseeable future, which will affect daily life and infrastructure and will be another cost and contingency to cater for,” says Lizette Erasmus, manager of Insurance Expertise at IntegriSure Brokers.
Although most modern geysers feature fail-safe mechanisms, they are still susceptible to malfunctions. Particularly older geysers are at risk and prone to failure, which makes increased vigilance essential. Ensure that your geyser, whether electrical, solar or gas, is serviced by a qualified plumber at least every three years. A comprehensive geyser service involves draining the unit and inspecting its various components, including wiring, breakers, anode, element and thermostat.
These sensors also proactively monitor geyser health, detecting abnormalities such as high temperature, blown elements, leaks and ruptures. “If any abnormality is detected, an instant fault notification is sent to the customer, and if required, the water supply to the geyser will be shut off immediately to prevent additional damage,” adds Erasmus.
