What to know locally in Tzaneen

Ask your supplier to size irrigation pumps to the blocks and pressures the system needs, not to the biggest pump available.
Tzaneen: the properties, the water and the pump shops
Fruit sets the pace in Tzaneen. Citrus around Letsitele, avocados and macadamias on the slopes toward Politsi and Duiwelskloof, and mangoes and bananas in the warmer valleys all run on irrigation, so most pump work here is about moving water from the Letaba system, farm dams and boreholes to drip and micro sprinklers. Growers want reliable three phase pumps, filters and VSDs, and the busiest time for repairs is the dry winter and spring. The escarpment toward Magoebaskloof and Haenertsburg is much wetter, with forestry, trout dams and guest farms. Town houses use tanks and boosters when supply is interrupted. Heavy summer rain and lightning test control boxes and pump stations every season.
Typical borehole pumps requests in the area come from:
- Farms: larger pumps on three phase for livestock troughs, reservoirs and irrigation
- Complexes, estates and body corporates: a communal borehole pump feeding the complex garden system or a backup tank
- Offices, shops, hotels and lodges: backup borehole water for schools, lodges, hotels and office parks
