Plumbing in Upington
Upington is an oasis on the banks of the Orange River, surrounded by the Kalahari and the Green Kalahari's vineyards. Table grapes, raisins and wine depend on irrigation, so farms need pumps, pipelines, worker housing ablutions and packhouse drainage. Summer temperatures are among the hottest in the country, which stresses geysers, outdoor pipework and plastic fittings left in the sun, while winter nights can drop below freezing. Water in the region is hard and can carry silt, so filters and scale protection extend geyser life. Lodges and guest houses serving travellers to the Kgalagadi and Augrabies add hospitality work.
Typical leak detection requests in the area come from:
- Farms: farms trace leaks on long irrigation, borehole and reservoir supply lines
- Homes: homeowners find hidden leaks behind high water bills, damp walls and wet gardens
- Hospitality: hotels and lodges locate leaks in pools, pipe ducts and guest bathrooms
- Retail: shopping centres locate leaks in service ducts before they damage tenant stock
- Factories: factories find leaks in process water lines and fire mains under yards
- Schools: schools trace large water losses on long underground pipe runs across the grounds
