Plumbing in Bloemfontein

Bloemfontein, the judicial capital, has a dry continental climate with hot summers and sharp winter frosts that can split exposed pipes and damage solar geysers left without frost protection. Mangaung Metro has had repeated water supply problems, with some suburbs facing regular outages, so storage tanks, booster pumps and boreholes are now a common sight. The groundwater in the region is often hard, leading to scale build-up in geysers, kettles and taps that shortens element life. Government buildings, the University of the Free State, hospitals and schools provide steady institutional work, while established suburbs need pipe and geyser upgrades.
