Plumbing in Northern Cape

The Northern Cape is South Africa's largest and driest province, and water is precious everywhere except along the Orange River. Most farms and many small towns depend on boreholes, and the mineral-rich groundwater is often hard or brackish, so scale protection and water treatment matter for geysers and appliances. Kimberley in Sol Plaatje municipality has had repeated supply disruptions from ageing pipelines. Iron ore and manganese mines around Kathu and Hotazel, irrigated vineyards near Upington, and the province's growing solar power plants all generate specialised plumbing and pumping work.
