Heat pumps offer both households and other major consumers of electricity a significant opportunity to reduce costs related to water heating.

A heat pump works like an air-conditioner but in reverse. A heat pump can be three to four times more efficient than a hot water system which is powered by a normal resistance element (such as geysers) because for every kWh of electricity supplied to the heat pump, more than three kWh of thermal energy in the form of hot water is produced. A heat pump can save up to 75% of your water heating energy consumption and in some circumstances even more than that.

Heat pumps have been around for years. Heat pumps are internationally recognised as eco-friendly contributing to a lowering of greenhouse gas emissions by between 200-400%. The unique (patented) Aqua Magma high-temperature heat pump is widely used for the efficient heating of water for houses, schools, hostels, hotels, lodges and mines.

Heat pumps are typically mounted on the outside walls of buildings under the eaves or at ground level depending on the configuration of the system. The heat pump is connected to the geyser. The geyser itself acts as a reservoir but is in fact switched off. Aqua Magma heat pumps have the added benefit of being stainless steel encased making it less vulnerable to coastal elements.

Aqua Magma strives to provide a superior product that not only saves households and business expenses but also provides superior environmentally friendly energy solutions.
