I'm assuming 'geyser' is a gas hot water heater. -Always best to say if an appliance is gas or electric - If this is a conventional gas water heater then the thermostat will be underneath it, near the gas burner, so the tank will not need to be drained. - - Electric heaters often carry a 'relief valve' on top or on the side, (some people have been known to call this a thermostat.) and this does require lowering the water level before changing, not emptying, just lower than the part you are changing. In either type, make sure the gas or electricity is turned OFF before working .

How do I Replace an electric geyser element?
First of all make sure that the power to the geyser is off, test to make sure. you then need to drain the geyser. make sure that the tap supplying the inlet pipe is turned off, open the valve on the drain cock slowly making sure that the water is falling into the drip tray, open the valve as much as is needed or all the way if possible. This will take anywhere between 30 to 60 minutes to drain. then remove the power cable to the thermostat and or to the element. in some geysers the thermostat will sit next to the element and in others the thermostat will be part of the element. in the latter you will need to remove the thermostat by simply pulling it away from the element. you will now need a geyser spanner to be able to remove the element, in some instances you will need quite a lot of leverage as the elements do tend to sit pretty tight. when the element is lose and out make sure that the rubber seal came off properly as well. you'll need to clean it thouroughly before inserting the new element with its new rubber seal, screw it back into place, ensring that you don't cross the thread as you're doing this and fasten properly, insert the thermostat again and reconnect the power cables. do not switch on the power before the geyser is full otherwise you will burn the element out. turn on the water tap to the geyser and open all the hot water taps in your house. the geyser will be properly filled when the water is flowing from all the taps without any air bubbles. you may now switch on the power.
