In addition to our water heaters, we also manufacture unit accessories. These are either sold individually, or as a complete set.

Extended Chimney Pipes
1,5m, fully galvanized @ R1000 each
DID YOU KNOW? The temperature and pressure safety valve (TP valve) is designed to release water when either the temperature or pressure inside the unit exceeds safe limits. This prevents damage to the unit and potential safety hazards like explosions, and in the event of a TP valve opening/releasing, it needs to be replaced with a new one.
A 400 kPa Safety Valve is included with every unit sold
Every unit manufactured and supplied by Bobaas Donkies comes standard with an inlet & outlet nipple, a chimney pipe and a Kwikot FI Temperature and Relief Valve, with compression outlet (400 kPa pressure rating). This red-indicator valve acts as a dual-purpose safety valve – to relief overheated water, and to relieve excess water pressure.
DO I NEED AN ANODE ROD?
Where poor quality is a concern to clients, for example, where there is a lot of impurities/chemicals in the water, or in instances where the household hot water usually usually turns a brown colour when the tap is opened, we would typically recommend an anode.
At an additional cost, we can fit any unit with a sacrificial anode rod, but we need to state that there is no guarantee, nor any specific assurance that the anode provided will resolve problems as a result of poor water quality.
The anode is said to be "self-sacrificing" because it serves as a corrosion magnet to keep the geyser tank from rusting, safeguarding the exposed metal parts of the geyser.
Because the rod has a larger current potential than other metals in the water heater, the anode is typically constructed of magnesium or aluminum wound around a steel core wire. This ensures that the galvanic current travels from the rod to other exposed metals, preventing their corrosion.
