Important points on why to avoid reconditioned geysers on your property ❗️
⚠️ Consumer Alert: Avoid Reconditioned Geysers – Your Safety is at Risk ⚠️
IOPSA urges all homeowners and consumers to steer clear of reconditioned or refurbished geysers. These units often lack the necessary safety certifications and can pose serious risks, including:
💥 Explosions: Acid-washed or re-welded geysers have compromised structural integrity, increasing the risk of catastrophic failure.
⚡ Electric Shocks: Improper refurbishments can lead to faulty electrical components, endangering users.
💧 Water Leaks: Weakened shells may result in leaks, causing property damage.
🔥 Higher Energy Bills: Poor insulation in these units leads to increased electricity consumption.
🧪 Water Contamination: Residual acids from refurbishment processes can contaminate your water supply.
Your safety and well-being are paramount. Don't compromise—choose certified, compliant geysers and professional installation.
