Plumbing in Kimberley
Kimberley grew out of the diamond rush of the 1870s and still has many old houses and buildings with original pipes, drains and fittings. The Sol Plaatje municipality has suffered serious water outages over the years, largely because of ageing bulk pipelines from the Vaal River, so many residents have installed tanks, pumps and boreholes. Water here is hard, leaving scale in geysers and on elements, and extreme summer heat is followed by frosty winter nights that can crack exposed pipes. As the provincial capital, Kimberley has government offices, hospitals and schools that need regular maintenance, and nearby farms rely on boreholes.
Typical water tank installation requests in the area come from:
- Homes: households install backup tanks with a pump to ride out municipal water outages
- Offices: office parks keep toilets and kitchens running from storage tanks during shutdowns
- Healthcare: clinics and hospitals keep critical water supply through storage tanks and pumps
- Schools: schools install tanks so ablutions stay usable and classes are not cancelled
- Mines: mines store potable and process water in large tank farms
- Farms: farms store borehole and rainwater for livestock, irrigation and homesteads
