Burst geyser tips by Solar Guru

Having a Burst geyser can cause absolute chaos in your home. Having no water for your toilets and baths is a great issue. Here is some steps to follow in case your geyser burst:

• Switch off your electricity to the geyser with the switch on your distribution board.
• Let your hot water taps run for a few minutes to relieve some pressure from your burst geyser.
• Turn off your water supply at your mains.

Most common causes for a geyser to burst

• When there is very high temperatures or pressure in the geyser which is more than it can handle.
• Due to a lack of maintenance, a geyser’s pressure vessel can fail because of corrosion build up inside of the geyser.
• If the quality of the materials used to maintain the geyser is not on standard, therefore can lead to a burst geyser.

How to prevent a burst geyser

• Maintenance, especially from a qualified Guru plumber every once in a while can prolong your geysers lifespan.
• Wrap your geyser in a blanket during cold seasons which will also save you money and energy.
• Use a drip tray and be sure the outlet pipe flushes away most of the water in case of a burst geyser to prevent property damage.
