How to install a geyser the right way

[balangovender]

Good Morning Sir
I really enjoyed your video. You spoke slowly, I was able to understand every word, feel confident to install or fix a geyser. Thank you for sharing video, I Pray GOD helps you get more than 200 000 views. I honestly believe that this video will help a lot of people to understand how to fix or install a pressure geyser.

Regarding the new regulations there can be never a gatevalve or any valve between the PRV and the geyser. You wil have watermeter, non return valve, gatevalve, PRV and the geyser

[toufiquejaipal]

The stopcock needs to be fitted before the prv to allow servicing of the prv and the rest of the geyser without shutting off the mains. Also, your stopcock is back to front. Your vacuum breakers also need to be 300mm above the geyser and your pipes need to be lagged

After watching this video i can definitely tell my uncle knew nothing about installing geysers. going to my grandmother's house to rectify his mistakes before the house gets flooded. This is a very informative video indeed.

Thank you very much. This was very informative.

Meneer I give both up and down.The up giving general idea about geyser installations, the thumbs down is the order your installations.The stopcock after the pressure relief valve and the distance of vacuum breakers from top of heater must be 300mm.Its a good start, you'll improve if you do more research.

Thank you, your video was a very informative and great help. Looking forward to your future videos.

Very cool - going to install my geyser in a few days - you've helped me a million times over :) thank you

[Armindo-et]

Thanks very much sir for showing us how to stol the geyser

[eugeneolivier]

The geyser installation is Non compliant, There may not be any shut-off valve between the geyser and pressure relief valve. and the vacuyum breakers must be 300mm above the geyser..

[calvinaugustine]

Great informative video. Could you position a geyser on the ground or does it always have to be on the wall or in the roof

[frankgoodwin]

Potential bomb !! Should be Stopcock, then Pressure valve, then balance tee for cold water. Stopcock can function as a non return valve stopping your pressure relief from functioning. If you have a safety valve failure, your pressure valve (secondary safety pressure relief ) will not function then KABOOM you've just destroyed the house and maybe killed somebody.

your vacuum breaker is supposed to 300mm high

My geyser is the old type. The rubber got open.and the water wet every were cos the tray wasn't under.i want to relocate it outside and fix it unto the wall i can't find the rubber which came out to buy.what do i do. No money for a new one. Please advise

[itsvernthedj]

Vacuum breaker on the the hot water outlet must not be directly above. It must be piped 200mm minimum away and 300mm height. I'm an ex Service Technician from Kwikot and your installation does not comply with SANS REGULATION 10254. Stop misleading others. You can be prosecuted by posting a non compliant Geyser Installation on a public platform!

Thanks for the video.
Very helpful.

Please can you tell me if it is okay to install a geyser with the tank directly against a wall (i.e. touching the wall)? Or do you need to have a gap between the wall and the geyser’s tank?

Why I’m asking is because I’m wondering if the cold wall touching the geyser tank would cause the geyser to cool down quicker.

Thanks so much.

The picture made me want to read the comments. Its a good illustration, but not entirely to how it should be. Take note, there is a gaurentee on the product, if it fails during that period, and not installed correctly, the replacement is a void.

[eugeneeman]

Cant fault your efforts and enthusiasm but you should remove this video as it is so wrong in many ways. First thing it will do is void your five year warrantee if the geyser is new.
