Kwikot Heat Pump Regassing in Johannesburg

Kwikot heat pump regassing across Gauteng. Locally manufactured; parts are widely available which keeps repairs economical.

Kwikot equipment we work on includes geysers, heat pumps and storage cylinders. Commonly replaced parts on this brand are elements, thermostats, valves, anodes, and we keep or source these against the unit's model and serial plate rather than by guesswork.

A heat pump is a sealed system: if it is short of gas, there is a leak. Simply topping up sends the same refrigerant back into the atmosphere within months and masks the fault. We pressure-test, trace the leak, repair it, evacuate to vacuum and then charge by weight to the manufacturer's plate data.

Peak draw-off matters more than total daily volume: plant that satisfies a whole day of demand can still fail at a 45-minute shower peak. Sites with long, poorly insulated pipework lose more heat in distribution than most owners expect, which reads as a capacity problem at the outlet.
