Borehole & water supply in Brits: local notes
Most plots around Brits rely on a 4 inch borehole pump to a tank, then a booster or pressure tank to the house. If yours keeps running dry by afternoon, the pump may be bigger than the hole can give. Irrigation farmers along the Crocodile River and the canals use surface centrifugal pumps from the water and three phase borehole pumps for tunnels and pivots. Solar pumps suit plots with long cable runs.
Who pumps what in Brits
Smallholdings are what make Brits different. Between the town, Hartbeespoort and the Magaliesberg, thousands of plots run on borehole water for houses, gardens, horses and vegetable tunnels, and a stopped borehole pump is the call local installers get most. The Crocodile River and the canals below Hartbeespoort Dam feed farms that grow vegetables, citrus and grain under irrigation. Municipal supply in Madibeng has a long record of interruptions, so even town houses in Brits often keep a tank and a booster. The town also has a manufacturing and industrial side, with factories that need process and drainage pumps, and the chrome and platinum mines toward Mooinooi add mine work. Lightning on these hills is a frequent cause of burnt control boxes.
Typical tank pumps requests in the area come from:
- Smallholdings and plots: a pump feeding the house from a tank filled by the borehole
- Farms: tank pumps supplying cottages, dairies and stores from storage
- Homeowners: a booster and changeover so the house keeps water through cuts and load-shedding
