Plumbing in Welkom
Welkom was built in the late 1940s and 1950s to serve the Free State goldfields, and much of its housing dates from that planned-town era. Decades on, original pipework, sewer connections and geysers in many homes are due for replacement. Mining shafts, hostels and support businesses still need industrial plumbing, pump work and ablution maintenance, even though several mines have scaled down. The Matjhabeng municipality has struggled with ageing water and sewer infrastructure, so homeowners often turn to private plumbers for leaks and blockages. Cold Highveld winters bring frost-damaged pipes, and surrounding maize farms rely on boreholes.
Typical heat pump installation requests in the area come from:
- Homes: homeowners add heat pumps to existing geysers to lower monthly electricity bills
- Mines: mines install heat pumps in change houses and hostels to save energy
- Farms: farms fit heat pumps for farmhouses, worker housing and dairy hot water
- Retail: shopping centres fit heat pumps for food courts and staff facilities
- Schools: schools install heat pumps for hostels, change rooms and swimming pools
- Healthcare: clinics and care homes use heat pumps for constant, lower-cost hot water
