Eastern Cape notes on borehole & water supply
After the drought, many homes in Gqeberha's suburbs such as Walmer and Lorraine have a borehole or wellpoint feeding a tank, with a <a href="/booster-pumps/">booster pump</a> for the house. Karoo farms near Graaff-Reinet and Cradock are swapping windmills for solar pumps, and citrus farms around Kirkwood and Addo pump from canals and boreholes. In Makhanda, tanks and pumps for outages are common.
Who pumps what in Eastern Cape
Few provinces have felt water stress as sharply. The long drought that drained the dams supplying Nelson Mandela Bay pushed thousands of Gqeberha households to drill boreholes and fit tanks, and Makhanda is known for long water outages. In the Karoo around Graaff-Reinet, Cradock and Somerset East, sheep farms depend on boreholes and windmills, now often changed to solar. The Sundays River Valley around Kirkwood grows citrus on canal and borehole water. Kariega, the Coega zone and East London have car plants and factories that use process and drainage pumps. On the coast, sandy ground near Jeffreys Bay and Port Alfred calls for wellpoints, and the old Transkei relies on springs and boreholes.

- Homeowners: a deep 4 inch set where the local water table is far down
