Borehole & water supply in Limpopo: local notes
Game farms in the Waterberg and around Hoedspruit and Alldays run <a href="/solar-borehole-pumps/">solar borehole pumps</a> to fill troughs and water points, often with anti-theft mounts for the panels. Orchards near Tzaneen and Letsitele use three phase irrigation pumps from rivers and boreholes. Homes in Polokwane and Mokopane keep a borehole or a tank with a booster for when the municipal supply is off.
Limpopo: the properties, the water and the pump shops
Hot, dry for much of the year and spread over huge distances, Limpopo depends on boreholes more than most provinces. Polokwane and many villages draw a large share of their water from groundwater, and towns have had supply interruptions in long dry spells. Around Tzaneen and Letsitele, avocados, mangoes, citrus and nuts are irrigated from the Letaba catchment and from boreholes, while game farms in the Waterberg, near Hoedspruit and along the Limpopo valley pump water to troughs and pans with solar sets. Mining adds its own demand: platinum near Mokopane, coal at Lephalale and copper and phosphate at Phalaborwa all need dewatering and slurry pumps. Summer heat pushes motors hard, and storms bring lightning.
The requests we see from Limpopo usually come from:
- Farms: boosting tank water to the farmhouse, cottages and stores
- Smallholdings and plots: steady pressure from a ground tank fed by the borehole
- Mines and quarries: boosting water to offices, change houses and workshops on site

Where the pump shops and drillers are: polokwane industrial areas, Tzaneen, Mokopane, Lephalale and Phalaborwa.

Booster Pumps usually suit houses, flats, offices and complexes. How it is fitted: surface pump on a plinth beside the tank. For farms, the biggest group here, that usually means boosting tank water to the farmhouse, cottages and stores.
