Electric Geyser — How It Works
Uses an electric heating element, simple to install almost anywhere with a power point, no special ventilation required.
Gas Geyser — How It Works
Uses a gas burner to heat water, often faster heating and lower running cost where LPG/piped gas is available, but requires proper ventilation for safety.
Safety & Ventilation Consideration
Gas geysers must be installed with adequate ventilation to avoid carbon monoxide buildup — this is a genuine safety requirement, not optional, and affects where they can be installed.
Running Cost Comparison
Gas geysers can be cheaper to run in areas with accessible, affordable gas supply, while electric geysers have simpler, more predictable running costs tied to your electricity rate.

Yes, when installed correctly with proper ventilation by a qualified installer — this is the critical factor, not the technology itself.
