"...I should like to confirm that since your energy saving Power Factor Correction unit and Geyser Controller were installed a few months ago, our electricity consumption at home has been reduced from an average 32 units per day down to an average 20 units per day. I am extremely pleased with the results and would recommend the installation of this equipment to anyone! Joubert Steyn Gordon’s Bay

 

"Eskom test on Mr.Power geyser controller completed during January 2009 ...based on the above it is possible to conclude that the controller operated as claimed."

 

''...I am happy to share my personal experience when I installed your power saving products. I installed two products, the power factor correction unit and the geyser controller. I attached a kilowatt/hour meter to the geyser electrical supply isolator switch, which effectively monitored the power that was consumed by the geyser only. I ran the test for a week, and maintained normal daily activity, such as showering, bathing, washing dishes, cleaning tiles, etc. I removed the PFC unit and geyser controller on Thursday morning. The below summarises the actual power consumption readings taken over a period of 6 days. Monday (09h00) to Thursday (09h00) – 18.7 kwh (average 6.23 kwh per day) Thursday (09h00) to Sunday (09h00) – 59.2 kwh (average 19.73 kwh per day) This represents a massive saving of 68.4% I am happy to recommend your products, and feel free to use this letter as a reference.''

''...I installed two Geyser Controllers. Unlike a normal timer, Mr.Power's Geyser Controller is very user-friendly and my first month savings was astonishing!'' Neels Roeloffze Gordon's Bay

 

''...Since having the Mr Power products installed I’ve achieved a saving of R1,000 a month with a payback period of under a year. With the savings I have achieved so far I would strongly recommend these products …'' Gareth Clements FINE THREAD EMBROIDERY cc, Rivonia

''...I should like to confirm that since your energy saving Power Factor Correction unit and Geyser Controller were installed during the early part of August, my electricity bill at the restaurant has been reduced by between 20% and 25% every month. I am extremely pleased with the results and would recommend the installation of this equipment to others.'' Tony Fernandes Ocean Basket, Mellville

"Since Mr.Power installed their geyser controller and power factor correction equipment at our Spur Franchise in Fourways during July 2009, our electricity consumption has dropped by almost 4000 kWh monthly. I would have no problem in recommending the Mr. Power equipment to other users" Pat Carolin Zone Manager Brinsput North

"Since Mr. Power installed their geyser controller and power factor correction equipment at our Spur franchise in Wynberg during March 2010, our electricity consumption has dropped by almost 25% per month. The equipment paid for itself in just two months making this a fantastic investment!" Pieter Smith Director Kelleo Investments (Cherokee & Cincinnati Spur)

"The letter serves to affirm that Mr.Power installed a kWh meter at my Wimpy franchise in Malibongwe Drive, Randburg for a period of four days to acertain the electricity consumption on one of the phases. They then installed a three-phase PFC unit and a geyser controller on the same phase and measured the consumption over the ensuing eight days. Results: Without the energy saving devices the consumption was 511.2 kWh over the first four days, or an average of 127.8 kWh per day. With the energy saving devices installed, the consumption was 594 kWh over the eight days, or an average of 74.25 kWh per day. This represents an impressive saving of 41.9% D.

How does a geyser controller work?

The geyser controller is installed either in or next to your distribution board, and is programmed to switch off your geyser when hot water is not required in large amounts.

It is not the same as a timer because it detects current and not time.

Unlike the timer, the geyser controller will ONLY be active for the period of time necessary to get the water to the pre-set temperature.

This means that you will have sufficient hot water until the next pre-set time segment is activated. The Geyser Controller’s micro-processor is multi-programmable with up to 8 different daily heating periods.

 

''...I am very pleased to confirm that following the installation of a geyser controller by Mr. Power during …. , I have realized a saving of 38.43% of kwh on the use of the geyser … I attached a kilowatt/hour meter to the geyser electrical supply insulator switch, which monitored the power consumed by the geyser only. I ran the test for a period of 4 days with and without the geyser controller using very similar usage patterns.'' I am ….. recommending the installation of the geyser controller to my friends and family.'' R.E. Allcock

A timer can also turn your geyser off whether the water temperature is hot or cold. You might think you are saving because your geyser is off for a period of time. However, the problem arises when the water is still cold when the geyser switches off. When the timer puts the geyser back on, any savings are lost because a geyser can use more power and take up to two and a half hours to heat up cold water. As there is no micro-processor in a timer, it can’t measure any current and works on a time setting only.

Mr. Power’s Geyser Controller always ensures the geyser switches of at maximum temperature, not just at a specific time. This means that your geyser does not have to heat water up from cold, allowing you to enjoy your savings and still have hot water 24 hours a day.

Unlike the timer, the geyser controller will ONLY be active for the period of time necessary to get the water to the pre-set temperature, because it detects current and not time.

This means that you will have sufficient hot water to wash dishes or hands etc, until the next pre-set time segment is activated. The Geyser Controller’s micro-processor is multi-programmable with up to 8 different daily heating periods.

• The geyser will not heat water outside of your preset periods

• It does however have a manual boost button that would heat water instantly

• The geyser will not be on during peak hours, but will ensure that your geyser's water is heated beforehand

• Unlike a timer, the controller has a 60 day battery back up, so you don’t have to worry about resets after a power failure

• The Geyser Controller checks for current useage to the geyser every 20 secs and if none is found, will cancel the rest of that time period

• The Geyser Controller is multi-programmable with up to 8 different daily heating periods
