Gas Installers Plattekloof quote larger installations than most of the Northern Suburbs. The housing here runs to substantial homes on sloped stands with several bathrooms, and the appliance lists reflect that.
Multi-point systems, gas fireplaces and occasionally pool or patio heating are all common.
Say what the appliance is and whether this is new work, a repair or a certificate.

Getting a Large System Right
- List everything, including what comes later. Pool heating and patio heaters are the two most often left off, and both are substantial loads.
- Sloped stands lengthen runs. The compliant cylinder position may be well below or above the house.
- Two geysers beat one on a large home. Where bathrooms are far apart, a second unit near the far outlets outperforms one large unit plus a long pipe run.
- Cap the points you are not using yet. They cost a few hundred rand during the main install and thousands to retrofit.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a large multi-point installation cost?
R22,000 to R45,000 for four appliances excluding the appliances, and more where pool heating or a second geyser is involved. Priced from a survey rather than a table.
Should a large house have two gas geysers?
Where bathrooms are at opposite ends, often yes. A second unit near the far outlets delivers hot water faster than one large unit and a long run, and it provides redundancy.
Can pool heating run off the house supply?
It can, but it is a heavy load and must be in the appliance schedule from the start. Adding it to a supply sized without it usually means upsizing the reticulation.
What cylinder bank does a four-appliance house need?
Commonly two to four 48kg cylinders on automatic changeover, sized on peak simultaneous draw rather than on appliance count.
Can the installation be phased?
Yes. Size the bank and the main run for the finished system, install what you need now and cap the rest. Capped points still appear on the certificate.
What does certification cost on a large installation?
R1,800 to R3,800 for a multi-point residential system.
