In an electric geyser there are two pipelines, one for inlet of cold water and the other for outlet of the hot water. The water tank is fitted with heating element/s which is/are controlled by thermostats. The tank is normally covered with insulating material such as glass wool and entire assembly is enclosed inside a metal casing which can be hanged on the wall or wherever required. Solar geysers are also called domestic water heating systems. The systems are designed to heat water using solar energy tapped from the sun. Solar geysers are also effective and appropriate for use since they are friendly to the environment. For convenience sake, solar geysers should be used alongside gas or electric systems. The electricity or gas powered systems only come in during extremely cold winters. Solar geysers are designed using specialised technology to allow them to generate sufficient amounts of energy for use at home and for other heating needs. The two major components of these systems are the intelligent solar controller and the circulation pump. The solar controller is used to prevent the geysers and from either overheating or freezing in the night during the cold winter months.

It can also be scaled manually to hone down the area of search. Hydrogen at 5% in a balance of nitrogen is: Non flammable, Non toxic, Non corrosive and Totally safe.
