Plumbing in Witbank
eMalahleni sits at the centre of South Africa's coal belt, ringed by collieries and Eskom power stations. Mines, power stations and steel and engineering works generate demand for industrial plumbing, pump maintenance, change-house ablutions and pipe work in hostels and contractor camps. The eMalahleni municipality has a history of water supply interruptions, leading many homes and businesses to install tanks and booster pumps. Highveld winters bring hard frosts that burst exposed pipes and damage solar geysers. Expanding suburbs and townhouse complexes for mine workers and contractors also keep plumbers busy with new installations and geyser replacements.

Typical water tank installation requests in the area come from:
- Mines: mines store potable and process water in large tank farms
- Factories: factories hold process and fire water reserves in large storage tanks
- Homes: households install backup tanks with a pump to ride out municipal water outages
- Complexes: complexes fit communal tanks with body corporate approval to supply units during outages
- Construction: building sites use tanks for mixing water and temporary site ablutions
- Retail: shops and centres store water for toilets and cleaning during interruptions
