Geyser Insulation Blankets - Easy to install! in Plumstead, Western Cape for sale
Geyser water temperature drops by approx. 1 degree celsius per hour. Constant energy is thus needed to maintain the temperature. A geyser insulation blanket can cut this energy use by half. Insulating your geyser and water pipes reduces the cooling rate and hence the electricity needed to reheat the water, reducing your electricity spending.
The effectiveness of thermal insulation material is rated in terms of material resistance, called R-value. An R-value or Thermal Resistance value indicates the ability of material to resist the transfer of heat. Eskom's minimum recommendation for geyser insulation is a R-value of 1. This blanket has a R-value of 1.2.
