Why is it important for a solar system to be tested by SABS?
The specifications on solar water heaters focus on three main areas: quality, performance and safety. Testing systems verify these requirements. As the payback periods are very important it is vital that the solar water heater is of a quality that ensures system longevity. The machanical performance tests e.g. hail, freezing and pulsation test (testing of the valves) are conducted to ensure that the minimum quality standards are met. The performance tests are conducted to determine how well the system works. The safety test determines if all the safety requirements are met, including electrical and mechanical safety criteria.

Standard electrical geysers are not designed to be utilised with solar collectors as they do not have sufficient inlets and their linings are often not designed to withstand the temperature experienced from solar energy.

Purchasing a solar water heating system that is registered on the Eskom programme ensures that the system and the supplier have been checked and audited to the SABS minimum standard for solar water heaters, not only safeguarding you as a consumer but also giving you greater assurance of the system's quality. Buying an Eskom registered system means you qualify for a rebate, making your purchanse good value for money.

In order to reduce the growing demand for electricity, Eskom is embarking on energy efficiency and alternative energy programmes that promote energy savings on a large scale in order to mitigate system constraints. Eskom is working towards a goal to meet government's target of 10 000 gig-a-watt hours of renewable energy generation by 2013. Part of this is the financial assistance in the form of a rebate to assist hot water consumers to convert to solar.

The formula used to calculate the size of a Solar Water Heating system is: 50L of hot water per person per day. Thus, a household with 4 members will need a 200L system. 50L X 4 = 200L.

The single most effective way to lower the average household electricity bill is to install a Solar Water Heating System. You can save up to 50% on your electricity consumption by making use of solar power to heat your household geyser. Solar geysers replace approximately 75% of the energy used by regular electrical geysers.

"I'd put my money on the sun and solar energy. What a source of power! I hope we don't have to wait until oil and coal run out before we tackle that" - Thomas Edison
