The problem EzGeyser aims to address is the quick depletion of natural gas resources in Pakistan, as we consume billions of cubic feet of natural gas every winter to keep our houses warm. This way of life is not sustainable as we are soon to run out of natural gas and need some innovative product that can at least slow down its impact, if not completely eradicate it.
EzGeyser is a smart thermostat that can be installed on traditional geysers and offers up to 30% energy efficiency and 60% savings on gas bills. The second problem EzGeyser aims to address is the unsafe use of natural gas. It is equipped with a self-ignition feature and a suite of safety sensors.
This feature enables the geyser to be readily available for use in case of an unexpected or odd-hour spell of load-shedding. A battery backup ensures operation due to electricity load-shedding as well. In the near future, a more energy-efficient and smart geyser will also be rolled out with a built-in smart thermostat.
The feature also enables EzGeyser for complete automation, which is further supplemented by an app that shows its real-time status and can also be used for scheduled operation.
If executed well, EzGeyser can cater to a huge market as there are currently 10 million users of natural gas in Pakistan, seven billion million of which are estimated to have gas geysers. The product is also fit for export and can bring billions in revenue if scaled properly.
