The Cadac 12L Ecoflow is the compact model in our range: R4,500 for the unit, from R11,000 supplied and installed. It suits a granny flat, a flatlet or a smaller household with lower hot-water demand. Battery-powered ignition keeps it running through load shedding and the low-flow start lights where softer water pressure leaves other units hesitating. Cylinders, cage, cover and a flue where required are extras.
Granny flats, flatlets, single-bathroom units and smaller households where hot water is used one outlet at a time. If nobody is filling a bath while somebody else showers, the 12L does the job without you paying for capacity you will never draw.
We will not sell you a 12L for a house that needs more. Buying too small costs money twice, and we would rather point you at the 16L or a 20L unit up front.
R4,500 for the unit, and from R11,000 supplied and installed. That is a starting price, not a fixed quote — the final figure depends on your plumbing layout, how far the gas line has to run and what the site needs.
Cylinders, a lockable gas cage where the cylinder stands somewhere public — common in complexes and rentals — the weather cover, and a flue where one is required. The distance from the cylinder to the geyser wall also moves the price. No electrical point is needed, which keeps the total down.
Yes. The Ecoflow ignition is battery-powered, so an outage changes nothing about your hot water and there is no plug point to install. Pair that with the low-flow start and you have a unit that fires in the two situations that catch people out in George: no power, and soft water pressure.
If low pressure is your ongoing complaint, our technicians measure the real flow at the outlet on the assessment before recommending anything. Read up on common gas geyser problems first if you want to know what we will be checking.
Then step up one. The 16L Ecoflow is the same battery ignition and the same low-flow start with more capacity, and it is the usual answer for a small house rather than a flatlet.

More capacity for a smaller home or a flat where hot water gets used harder, with the same battery ignition and low-flow start.
Compare the Cadac 16L Ecoflow →Cylinder placement, complex rules and low pressure are what make small-space installations tricky. This is how we handle them across George.
See flat and granny flat installations →The unit being affordable changes nothing about the gas. LPG installations must be done by a registered installer and certified on completion — that is the law, it is what your insurer expects, and it is what keeps the household safe.
Correct line sizing, proper leak testing, safe cylinder placement and adequate ventilation — the things that matter most in a small space.
An uncertified installation can void your insurance and will hold up a property sale. See gas compliance and safety inspections.
A compact unit installed well outperforms a bigger unit installed badly. Commissioning and testing at the taps is what turns a box on a wall into reliable hot water.

Compare the modelsThe unit is R4,500 and the installation starts from R11,000 supplied and installed. That is a starting price, not a fixed quote — it moves with your plumbing layout, the distance the gas line has to run and what the site needs. Cylinders, a gas cage, the weather cover and a flue where one is required are extras on every job and are never included in the from-price.
