What to know locally in Bellville
Garden boreholes in Durbanville, Brackenfell, Kraaifontein and Kuils River are common, but in shale the yield can be modest and the water salty, so get the yield and a water quality test before you buy a big pump. Wine and wheat farms on the Durbanville hills irrigate from farm dams filled in winter and from boreholes. Townhouses add tanks with booster pumps and changeovers for outages.
Bellville: the properties, the water and the pump shops
Bellville and the northern suburbs sit on different ground from the Cape Flats. Much of the area is on Malmesbury shale, where boreholes can be lower yielding and the water is often salty or high in minerals, which surprises owners who expected the results their friends got in sandy Milnerton. Durbanville's wine and wheat farms on the hills pump from boreholes and farm dams, and homes in Brackenfell, Kuils River and Durbanville drilled in numbers during the drought. Winter rain pushes the Kuils River and its tributaries over their banks in places, and office parks in Tygervalley have basements that rely on sump pumps. Pump shops, rewinders and irrigation suppliers work from Bellville South, Stikland and the industrial roads off the N1.

- Homeowners: a pump feeding garden sprinklers or drip lines from a borehole or tank
