Radi-Therm Geyser Blanket Kit

What is a Radi-Therm Geyser Blanket

The Radi-Therm Geyser Blanket Kit is an insulation blanket that helps to reduce heat loss from your geyser, which can save you money on your energy bills.

The kit includes the following:
– A soft polyester fibre laminated material between 40 to 50 mm thick, laminated with aluminum foil
-The size of the blanket is 1,75 meters by 1,2 meter wide
-The kit includes a roll of 10 meters of adhesive tape
-It also includes 3 pieces of industrial Plastic strapping and 3 strapping buckles
-A detailed installation brochure

Easy To Install:
-The geyser blanket kit includes everything that is required to install the product onto the geyser
-The average installation time is 25 minutes for an outdoor geyser and less than an hour for an indoor geyser

Saving:
-You could save at least R500 per year on your geyser electricity bill
-The “Radi-Therm” Geyser Blanket Kit reduces the number of times the element switches on during the day
-The average time between cut-in of the electrical element at a set point of 60 C would increase from 16 hours
39 minutes to an average time of 20 hours 59 minutes
-The corresponding standing losses would decrease from 2.024 kilowatt-hours to 1.607 kilowatt-hours per day,
saving 21%

Quality and Track Record:
-The Radi-therm insulation material is tested by SABS and FIRE-LAB. It has been used for a project for
ESKOM to install 122,500 kits, saving 5.8 Megawatts of energy
-Since 2006 an additional 150,000 “Radi-Therm” Geyser Blanket kits have been sold to the retail space for
hardware stores as a DIY product under the “Plumb Easy” product brand.

Geyser Blanket and Loadshedding:
-A geyser blanket can help you during load shedding by keeping your water hot for longer. The blanket reduces
heat loss, so your geyser won’t cool down as quickly.
-When the power returns, the geyser blanket also assists the element in heating the geyser in less time. A
study done by Cape Peninsula University of Technology proved that a geyser fitted with the “Radi-Therm”
Geyser Blanket Kit will reheat 4% faster which relates to direct electricity savings.

Geyser Blanket for Solar Geysers:
-A Geyser Blanket assists the solar geyser to retain the heat longer during the evenings. During the day the
geyser is heated by the free energy from the sun, but during the evenings it cools down quickly and loses that
free heat, resulting in the electrical element having to switch on again and reheat the solar system
-By retaining the heat for longer, the solar geyser uses less electrical power, and when the element does switch
on it leads up faster as well

Outside UV Resistance:
-The geyser blanket is made of a water-resistant and UV-resistant material, so it can be used on geysers inside
or outside. It can also be used on solar geysers.
