A family of four spending ₹1,000–₹1,500 a month on geyser electricity typically recovers the cost of a 200 LPD system in 2–4 years — and the heater lasts 15+ years.
Tips to avoid overpaying
- Size correctly — see our LPD sizing guide.
- Buy genuine branded systems from an authorised dealer for warranty support.
- Ask whether the quote includes stand, plumbing, backup heater and installation.
