Smart Geyser Controller
The Smart Geyser Controller is installed on the electrical supply to the geyser, between it and the isolation switch.
This gives the device control of electricity usage of the geyser.
The Controller is connected to the internet with a GSM connection,allowing for high-resolution data that makes monitoring and control functionality near real-time.
The controller was developed with a focus on energy efficiency, over a period of several years and has been fine-tuned over multiple iterations, resulting in a more reliable and commercially viable product.
In addition to the energy efficiency provided, and of most importance to the insurance industry, is the leak detection capability of the SmartController.
Benefits
– The increased efficiency, through correct scheduling and temperature control can save approximately 25% of a household’s normal energy usage per month.
– Leak detection allows for the mitigation and prevention of possible consequential losses associated with geyser failure.
– The possible savings for a middle-class home is about the equivalent to that of the home insurance premium itself, making it an attractive proposition for any prospective short-term home insurance client.
– The energy saving equates directly to a 25% saving on associated climate impact. Therefore, a significant portion of CO2emissions can be reduced in developing countries such as South Africa where fossil-fuel use is still the norm.
