Plumbing in Richards Bay
Richards Bay is a heavy-industry and port town, home to a deep-water harbour, a coal export terminal, aluminium smelting and mineral sands mining. These operations, and the many contractors that service them, create demand for industrial plumbing, pipe fabrication, pump maintenance and compliant ablution blocks. Residential suburbs such as Meerensee, Arboretum and Birdswood were largely built from the 1970s onwards and now need geyser, pipe and drain upgrades. The humid subtropical climate and salt-laden air corrode metal fittings quickly, and sandy coastal soils can shift underground pipes. uMhlathuze municipal supply interruptions have also made backup tanks more common.
Typical water tank installation requests in the area come from:
- Factories: factories hold process and fire water reserves in large storage tanks
- Mines: mines store potable and process water in large tank farms
- Homes: households install backup tanks with a pump to ride out municipal water outages
- Construction: building sites use tanks for mixing water and temporary site ablutions
- Offices: office parks keep toilets and kitchens running from storage tanks during shutdowns
- Complexes: complexes fit communal tanks with body corporate approval to supply units during outages
