The Geyser Gecko uses the latest technology to provide you with the latest in green technology and more than 50% of savings in geyser electricity usage.
Save on your geyser electricity usage
The Geyser Gecko is your answer to a hybrid solar geyser.
- Uses solar panels to heat up your existing electrical geyser (up to 4 kW geyser elements supported).
- Can be set up to operate as a hybrid between AC and PV power.
- Can be monitored and configured remotely by using the Geyser Gecko mobile companion app.
Easy Installation
The Geyser Gecko can be installed into existing electrical geyser installations and does not require a different geyser element.
The Geyser Gecko uses solar panels to heat up your existing electrical geyser (up to 4 kW geyser element). It can be set up to operate as a hybrid between AC and PV power, where AC power is partially used to heat up the water and the solar panels heats it up further. It can also be used in PV only mode, where only solar panels are used to heat up the geyser.
Save Energy
More than 50% savings on geyser power usage.
Powerful
Supports geyser elements of up to 4kW.
Solar Support
Supports solar panels with a combined maximum open-circuit voltage of 250V and short-circuit current of up to 10A. A minimum of 1600W of panel power is recommended. (Click here to download panel selection guide).
Accurate readings
Accurate geyser temperature measurement with a digital probe (supplied with the Geyser Gecko).
PV Input
Can function with PV input only.
Hybrid Functionality
AC and PV mode provides hybrid between solar and the power grid, with the power grid used to supplement the PV power.
Adaptable
Can be used with existing conventional geyser installations; does not require any special geyser element.
