Heating water with Paloma gas geysers
Gas Water Heaters (GWH) have been called many different names in the past; gas geysers, instant water heaters, push-through geysers, gas water geysers, gas boilers, tankless water heaters etc. These units have been around for decades and are the preferred method of efficiently heating water around the world. Why? – because they heat water on demand. Only as you turn on the hot tap will the unit start to produce hot water, meaning extremely high efficiency and very little heat loss. Gas water heaters are measured by the ‘flow rate’ of hot water they can deliver.
The older traditional gas water heaters provided between 11-18 l/m, enough for single use (1 tap at a time).
Paloma gas water heater units come in various sizes:
- 20 & 26 litres per minute as domestic or residential, external units, allowing up to 3 taps/showers used at any one time.
- 28 litres per minute as commercial, internal or external units, allowing up to 4-6 taps/showers used at any time.
All units allow for multi-point use (dependent on climate).
All models come as either LPG or Natural gas use units.

Gone are the days of running outside to re-light gas geysers, also gone are the days of lukewarm and weak showers, no more cries due to cold water coming through after someone else opens another hot tap, while you are showering!
