I think "geysers" are a type of hot water heater, yes?

  Yes. Most houses in SA have electrically heated water stored in a tank called a geyser. There are other options - some apartment complexes have central heat pump hot water, some houses have on demand heating via gas - but the most common is something like a 100/150/200 litre insulated steel tank in the roof that stores hot water and regulates it to 60 degrees C via thermostat.

  It's what us American's call a hot water tank. Basically the same thing.
