Plumbing in Richards Bay
Richards Bay is a heavy-industry and port town, home to a deep-water harbour, a coal export terminal, aluminium smelting and mineral sands mining. These operations, and the many contractors that service them, create demand for industrial plumbing, pipe fabrication, pump maintenance and compliant ablution blocks. Residential suburbs such as Meerensee, Arboretum and Birdswood were largely built from the 1970s onwards and now need geyser, pipe and drain upgrades. The humid subtropical climate and salt-laden air corrode metal fittings quickly, and sandy coastal soils can shift underground pipes. uMhlathuze municipal supply interruptions have also made backup tanks more common.
Typical borehole pump installation requests in the area come from:
- Factories: factories pump borehole water for process use, washdown and cooling
- Mines: mines use borehole pumps for water supply and groundwater control
- Homes: suburban homes use borehole water for gardens, pools and backup supply
- Construction: developers install borehole pumps for site water and new estate supply
- Offices: office parks pump borehole water for landscaping and toilet flushing
- Complexes: estates and complexes run communal boreholes to irrigate shared gardens
