I bought an Alva gas geyser from Makro not even a year ago. Initially it worked well but gradually it started giving problems with ignition. So now it does not even give a click. Makro also did not inform me that there are no spares available for the Alva gas geyser in South Africa. My recommendation is do not buy an Alva gas geyser.
Installed in December 2023 ignitor not working have to turn the hot tap way down in order for it get hot so not ideal for showers. Worked well when it was first installed. Dissapointed 6 months later
My 16lt Alva heater is not heating up the water at the moment.
New gas cylinder and batteries installed - gas from cylinder flowing, sparking but no ignition
Please help?
Before it worked brilliantly and I love the geyser, but I need my hot water back - am living on a farm in the Drakensberg mountains
Be careful with these reviews. The moment some one places a negative result the businesses itself may swamp the reviews with niceties to counter it and so mislead the public. Remember the times we live in. Especially made so much more evident in this voting time. I have a different make which also have issues. Gas is perhaps needed due to load shed but a weak alternative. I am sorry I let go of solar heating my geyser for gas. For 8 years solar worked excellently, you can believe this, now I am gassed, cold water and long wait for warm but not hot. They say it is all in the mind. Well mine is in the feel. Good luck if yours work but there can be many many issues that develop over short or longer time, and the cost to maintain it to work, reasonably, but not excellently !! Just read the handbooks.
I bought a 12 l Alva gas water heater from Alva’s online shop 16 months ago to use on my outdoor shower at Theewaterskloof Dam caravan park.
When I am not at the caravan park I have to lock it away inside the caravan otherwise it will get stolen. Clearly a design flaw has led to over heating and the melting of some wires.
Alva refuses to even look at it or sell replacement parts. Disgusting as I specifically bought from a reputable Cape Town based manufacturer in case it required repairs due to the circumstances.
Help desk unhelpful and I definitely will avoid any future purchases from Alva.
