Geyser call-outs spike across the Winelands as soon as the winter cold fronts arrive. Burst geysers are one of the most common emergencies local plumbers deal with in Paarl, and the frustrating part is that most of them are avoidable with a five-minute check.
The part that matters most is the temperature-and-pressure (T&P) valve, governed by SANS 10106. When it seizes up, pressure builds with nowhere to go, and that is what splits a geyser open. We check it on every call. High municipal pressure is the other culprit: where it sits above the 400 kPa that SANS 10252 allows, it shortens geyser life, and a pressure-reducing valve is a cheap way to protect an expensive geyser. Homes on borehole or well-point water since the Day Zero drought get scale build-up inside the tank that reduces efficiency and burns out elements early.
Before you pay for a new geyser: most home insurance policies in South Africa cover a burst geyser, and homeowners regularly forget to check. Have your policy number ready when you call and we can work directly with your insurer on the claim.
