Newcastle notes on borehole & water supply
Farms around Utrecht, Dannhauser and Charlestown water cattle from boreholes, and many are swapping old windmills for solar pumps that fill a tank by day. In Madadeni, Osizweni and Blaauwbosch, households add a plastic tank and a small pump for times when the supply stops. Holes in the hard sandstone and dolerite of the area vary in yield, so size the pump to the yield test, not to a neighbour's hole.
Who pumps what in Newcastle
Coal and steel built Newcastle, and both still shape its pumping work. Old and working collieries around Dannhauser and Utrecht deal with mine water that has to be pumped out and handled carefully, and heavy industry in the town runs process, cooling and slurry pumps. The Ngagane and Buffalo rivers and the dams upstream feed the area, but many households in Madadeni and Osizweni have had interruptions, so tanks and pumps are common. The Highveld edge brings big summer thunderstorms and plenty of lightning, and cattle and maize farms towards Utrecht and Charlestown rely on boreholes, with windmills still turning on some and solar pumps replacing others. Pump shops and rewinders work from the industrial areas near the town centre and Riverside.
The requests we see from Newcastle usually come from:
- Factories, plants and depots: process and wash water from a borehole at a plant or depot
- Farms: larger pumps on three phase for livestock troughs, reservoirs and irrigation
- Homeowners: a 4 inch pump filling a garden tank or feeding irrigation during water cuts
