This solution is ideal for
A 100-liter solar geyser is a great choice for small households, especially those with one or two people. It’s perfect for smaller living spaces like apartments or cottages where hot water needs are relatively low.
If you live alone or with a partner and your daily hot water use is modest—such as taking quick showers and running a small kitchen—a 100-liter geyser can easily keep up. Homes with just a shower, a basin, and light kitchen use are ideal setups.
Think of a one-bedroom apartment or a compact holiday cottage with a kitchenette and shower. In these settings, a 100-liter solar geyser provides just the right amount of hot water without wasting energy or space.
How much electricity will I save when I install a 100 L High Pressure Apollo Solar Geyser?
Installing a 100L High Pressure Apollo Solar Geyser can lead to substantial electricity savings, particularly in South Africa where water heating accounts for a significant portion of household energy consumption.
Electricity Savings:
By replacing a traditional electric geyser with a solar-powered system, you can reduce your electricity usage for water heating by up to 100% under optimal conditions. This means that, depending on your household’s hot water usage and local sunlight availability, you could potentially eliminate the electricity costs associated with water heating.
Factors Influencing Savings:
-
Sunlight Exposure: Durban’s favorable climate with ample sunshine enhances the efficiency of solar geysers, maximizing energy savings.
-
Hot Water Usage Patterns: Households with consistent hot water usage during daylight hours will benefit more, as the system can directly utilize solar energy when it’s most abundant.
-
System Efficiency: The Apollo 100L High Pressure Solar Geyser features high-quality components, including a stainless steel inner tank and 2.2 mm thick evacuated glass tubes, which contribute to its efficiency and durability.
Additional Benefits:
-
Load Shedding Resilience: Solar geysers operate independently of the electrical grid, providing hot water even during power outages.
-
Environmental Impact: Reducing reliance on electricity for water heating decreases your household’s carbon footprint, contributing to environmental conservation efforts.
Conclusion:
Investing in a 100L High Pressure Apollo Solar Geyser is a financially and environmentally sound decision for small households in South Africa. The potential to significantly reduce or even eliminate electricity costs for water heating, coupled with the system’s durability and efficiency, makes it a worthwhile addition to your home.
How long will a 100 L High Pressure Apollo Solar Geyser last me?
100L High Pressure Apollo Solar Geyser is designed for durability and long-term use, typically lasting between 15 to 20 years with proper maintenance. The longevity of the system is due to its high-quality components, including:
-
Stainless steel inner tank, which resists corrosion and withstands high pressure.
-
Thick evacuated glass tubes, known for excellent solar absorption and durability under varying weather conditions.
-
Insulated tank and high-grade materials, which help maintain temperature and reduce wear over time.
Factors that influence its lifespan include:
-
Installation quality – professionally installed systems tend to last longer.
-
Water quality – hard or mineral-rich water may require additional maintenance.
-
Regular servicing – flushing the system, checking valves, and inspecting seals every few years helps extend its life.
With minimal upkeep, your Apollo 100L solar geyser can provide reliable hot water for nearly two decades, making it a sound investment for long-term savings.
What is the typical maintenance I can expect when installing a 100 L High Pressure Apollo Solar Geyser?
When you install a 100L High Pressure Apollo Solar Geyser, the maintenance required is generally low but important for ensuring long-term performance and reliability. Here’s what you can typically expect:
Annual Inspection
Have the system professionally inspected at least once a year to check for leaks, corrosion, and component wear.
Cleaning the Evacuated Tubes
Dust, dirt, or bird droppings can reduce solar absorption. Gently clean the glass tubes once or twice a year to maintain efficiency.
Flushing the System
Mineral build-up can occur, especially in areas with hard water. Flushing the tank and pipes every 2–3 years helps prevent scaling and blockages.
Check the Anode Rod (if applicable)
Some models include a sacrificial anode rod to prevent tank corrosion. This should be checked every 2–3 years and replaced if depleted.
Insulation Integrity
Inspect pipe insulation for wear or UV damage, especially on exposed pipes.
With regular upkeep, your Apollo Solar Geyser will operate efficiently for up to 20 years.
