Solar in Kariega

Kariega, still called Uitenhage by many, lies in a drier pocket behind Gqeberha at the foot of the Winterhoek mountains, with more sunshine than the coast and less sea mist. Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality supplies the town, and grid-tied or hybrid systems must be registered and approved with it. Wind is frequent, so engineered mounting and secure fixings are important, and summer can be hot. Older single-storey houses have corrugated or tiled roofs, while the motor industry and its suppliers have large flat or sheeted roofs well suited to commercial systems. Citrus and farm work around Addo drives interest in solar pumps, cold rooms and hybrid backup.

Typical solar geysers requests in the area come from:

• Factories and warehouses: banks of collectors and large storage for staff showers, canteens or washdown water
• Shops, offices and schools: hot water for kitchens, ablutions or a small guesthouse with steady daily demand
• Family homes: a roof-mounted tank and collectors on a north-facing roof, supplying hot water to the whole family home
• Farms, smallholdings and lodges: larger tanks for farmhouses, workers' housing or guest cottages, with frost and hard-water protection
• Townhouses and flats: a compact system agreed with the body corporate, often shared or sized for a small household
• Estate homes: a neat split system with the tank hidden in the ceiling to meet estate design rules

Why get a quote in Kariega first?

What to include in your request
