Solar Geyser Installations in Johannesburg and Pretoria
Sustainable Hot Water Solutions
South Africans face rising electricity costs and ongoing load-shedding. At Alpha Plumbing we believe that a solar geyser is more than a hot water system – it’s an investment in energy independence. By harnessing the sun’s power, you can lower monthly bills, enjoy hot water during outages, and add long-term value to your property.
Every installation by Alpha Plumbing is carried out by PIRB-registered plumbers, using only SABS-approved components and in full compliance with SANS 10254 and SANS 1307. On completion, we issue a Certificate of Compliance (CoC) – essential for insurance and property resale.
