How Genersys solar panels can pay for themselves
Return on investment, or 'payback' is the time it takes for your solar panel system to generate savings on your heating bill equal to the cost of the system. After your system has achieved payback, the system has literally paid for itself, and all energy generated from the panels after this point can be considered well and truly FREE.
Genersys solar panels are designed for maximise efficiency and eliminate heat loss at all possible levels. This investment in design is what allows us to offer you such a high performing solar panel.
The payback periods for homes and pools:
| · 18 month payback on pool systems |
| · 6 to 10 years payback on home systems |
How do we work this out?
The payback periods above are typical cases based on average home and pool requirements in South Africa. Payback can vary of course, and depends on the demand you put on the system, and the fuel you are displacing.
The payback period is effected by the following:
| · Number of occupants using the house or pool |
| · Climate / weather / seasonal conditions |
| · Quality of water (hard or limescale) |
| · Angle of the panels |

A full 20 year breakdown of a typical payback is available in a free, downloadable brochure. Click below to start the download and see for yourself the substantial savings that can be accumulated over such a period. Furthermore, the figures in the brochure are based on a UK home, with the South African climate payback could be much quicker.

Genersys panels offer a relatively quick payback period through efficiency and sophisticated solar engineering; and not through compromised materials. |
