Solar Guru
Based on recent customer reviews, Solar Guru receives strong praise for its solar geyser installations, with customers consistently mentioning professional, efficient, and friendly teams who explain systems clearly and deliver clean workmanship. Several long-term clients highlight durability and repeat business spanning many years. However, a recurring concern involves disputes around compliance documentation, with one client reporting incorrect paperwork rejected by their municipality. Additional negative feedback centres on perceived dishonesty, faulty parts, and unsatisfactory after-sales handling, suggesting that while installation quality impresses many, conflict resolution and accountability remain pain points.

Excellent service from Solar Guru! Solar Guru truly went above and beyond to help us. They went out of their way on a Saturday morning to install our geyser, and thanks to them we had hot water again. The whole family could enjoy warm showers, which was a huge relief. Professional, friendly, and reliable service – I highly recommend Solar Guru. Thank you for the great work!

I contracted Solar Guru for a solar installation, paid them in full and on time, and expected all compliance documents to be provided for my municipality submission. Instead, they sent me an uncertified copy of the installer’s ID and a plumbing qualification instead of the required trade certificate. The municipality has rejected these documents, as only a valid trade certificate from a qualified installer is acceptable. Despite raising this with Solar Guru, they insist these are the documents they “always” give their clients — which is simply not true and not compliant. As a contractor in the construction business, I know what a trade certificate looks like, and I have submitted many before without issue. Their refusal to provide the correct paperwork has delayed my project and puts me at risk with municipal compliance. I cannot recommend Solar Guru to anyone needing legitimate, compliant solar installations. Their handling of this matter has been unprofessional and unacceptable.

I’m very happy with the recent solar geyser installation. The team was professional, efficient, and friendly from start to finish. The system is working perfectly, and I can already see the difference in my electricity bill. I highly recommend them for anyone considering a solar geyser – great service and excellent value!

Zaltin and his team recently installed a solar geyser for us, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. From start to finish, they were professional, efficient, and highly knowledgeable. The installation was done neatly and on time, and they took the time to explain everything clearly. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a reliable and professional solar solution.

I waited a full month before writing this review, just to see how everything would hold up. I recently had a solar geyser installed by Solar Guru, and I can confidently say the service and quality are outstanding. About two years ago, I had a solar geyser installed in a different part of my property by another company. At the time, the salesperson convinced me not to use Solar Guru by speaking negatively about them. That turned out to be a big mistake. The system from the other installer leaked several times, and although they came back a few times, they eventually blocked me and shut their business down a few months later. With Solar Guru, the experience was the complete opposite. Their team was professional, the installation was clean and efficient, and the system has been running perfectly. It's clear that Solar Guru has been in the industry long enough to know what they’re doing. Be careful of fly-by-night companies just looking to make a quick buck. I can confidently recommend Solar Guru to anyone – their work is top quality and their reputation is well deserved.

I’ve been thinking about installing a solar geyser for over 10 years. A few of my friends already had theirs installed through Solar Guru and were very satisfied, so I decided it was finally time. The installation process was smooth and professional. The installer was incredibly friendly and we had a great conversation throughout. I asked him how long he’s been with Solar Guru, and he told me it’s been around 15 years — he joined about two years after the company started. That kind of long-term commitment tells you a lot about the company culture and consistency. When I asked how many solar geysers the Solar Guru team had installed, he said it’s hard to give an exact number, but it’s definitely never less than 150 per month, and across the full team, the number is well over 30,000 units installed over the years — maybe even closer to 50,000. That’s a serious track record. The quality of the installation, the efficiency, and the overall experience was better than expected. No corners cut. You can see they know exactly what they’re doing. I only wish I had done this sooner. I highly recommend Solar Guru to anyone looking for a trusted name in solar water heating. — Extremely satisfied client, Johannesburg
