Randburg notes on borehole & water supply
On the high ground around Northcliff and Linden, a tank and <a href="/booster-pumps/">booster pump</a> with a changeover keeps water flowing through cuts and lifts pressure at upstairs showers. Many Ferndale and Bromhof gardens already have a borehole in granite; adding a line from it to a tank gives a second source. Older pumps often need a new pressure switch or <a href="/pressure-tanks/">pressure tank</a> rather than a whole new pump.
Who pumps what in Randburg
Randburg spreads across hills, and that matters for water. Higher suburbs near Northcliff Ridge and parts of Linden and Blairgowrie are often the first to lose pressure when a reservoir runs low, and many homes there have had days without water during cuts. Water tanks with a booster and an automatic changeover are a common answer, and borehole owners plumb their well into the system too. Older houses in Ferndale, Robindale and Fontainebleau have big gardens and pools, and their borehole and pool pumps are now decades old. Strijdom Park and the light industrial strips off Malibongwe Drive and Bram Fischer Drive hold pump shops, electrical rewinders and spares counters.
The requests we see from Randburg usually come from:
- Homeowners: a 4 inch pump filling a garden tank or feeding irrigation during water cuts
- Offices, shops, hotels and lodges: backup borehole water for schools, lodges, hotels and office parks
- Complexes, estates and body corporates: a communal borehole pump feeding the complex garden system or a backup tank
Local tips for Randburg
Common here: pressure boosting on high ground, tank changeovers, pool and garden borehole pumps. Ask each supplier about this: ask for a pressure tank with the booster so the pump does not cycle on every tap. Where they work from: strijdom Park and the light industry along Malibongwe and Bram Fischer Drives.
Around Randburg the largest group asking is homeowners, which usually means a 4 inch pump filling a garden tank or feeding irrigation during water cuts. Before you agree to anything: the borehole yield test and water level. Getting a technician there: workshops in Strijdom Park are a short drive from most of Randburg.
