Borehole & water supply in Benoni: local notes
Plots in Putfontein and Benoni Agricultural Holdings run <a href="/borehole-pumps/">borehole pumps</a> for houses, poultry houses and tunnels, and some growers use <a href="/irrigation-pumps/">irrigation pumps</a> with drip lines. A pump that empties the hole and runs dry will burn out, so dry run protection and a yield tested pump size matter. In town, Rynfield and Northmead homes use tanks with boosters for water cuts.
Who pumps what in Benoni
Benoni is known for its lakes and pans, from Homestead Lake to the water around Lakefield and Farrarmere, and that high water near the surface affects drainage in wet summers. The town also has a large ring of plots and small farms, in Putfontein, Benoni Agricultural Holdings, Rynfield and out toward Bapsfontein, where boreholes supply houses, poultry, horses and vegetable tunnels. In the older suburbs, Northmead and Rynfield homes have had water cuts, so tanks and boosters are common. Gold mines once worked under Benoni, and parts of Ekurhuleni lie on dolomite, so drill with care. Pump shops and workshops sit in Benoni's industrial areas and near the N12.
The requests we see from Benoni usually come from:
- Smallholdings and plots: one pump for the house, the animals and the vegetables, sized to the yield
- Farms: larger pumps on three phase for livestock troughs, reservoirs and irrigation
- Offices, shops, hotels and lodges: backup borehole water for schools, lodges, hotels and office parks
