Installation, repairs & parts in Bloemfontein: local notes
Hamilton and the other industrial areas have workshops that rewind motors and repair booster, pool and borehole pumps. Drillers in the city know the dolerite dykes, but siting is never a guarantee, so ask what a dry hole costs. Frost can split exposed pipes and pressure switches in winter, so lagging helps. Lightning protection on control boxes is wise across the Free State.
Who pumps what in Bloemfontein
Bloemfontein's water has to come a long way, much of it from dams and transfer schemes to the east, and many suburbs have had water cuts and low pressure. Homeowners in Langenhoven Park, Brandwag and Fichardt Park have responded with garden boreholes, tanks and boosters. West of the city, the smallholdings of Bainsvlei rely almost entirely on boreholes. Out on the Free State farms, windmills that pumped stock water for generations are being replaced by solar pumps, and maize and sunflower farmers use boreholes for houses and livestock. Ground is often shale and sandstone cut by dolerite dykes, and drillers here look for those dykes to find water. Pump shops, drillers and rewinders work from the industrial areas around Hamilton and Hilton.
Typical borehole pump installation requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: a garden borehole in the suburbs fitted with a pump, cap and pipe to a tank
- Municipalities, schools and clinics: village boreholes equipped with pumps, caps and control panels for a water project
- Offices, shops, hotels and lodges: a lodge or school borehole set up to fill storage tanks for backup water
