Paarl notes on borehole & water supply
Wine and fruit farms around Groot Drakenstein, Simondium and Wellington pump from dams and the Berg River into drip and micro irrigation, usually three phase with filters and a VSD for steady pressure. Some add solar pumps to cut daytime electricity costs. Homes below Paarl Mountain run garden boreholes in granite, and yields vary from plot to plot, so ask the driller what nearby holes gave.
Water and ground in Paarl
Vineyards, fruit orchards and the Berg River define pumping around Paarl. Farms in the Drakenstein valley, Groot Drakenstein, Simondium and Wellington fill their dams in winter and irrigate through the dry summer with drip and micro sprinklers, so irrigation pumps, filters and pressure control are the core of the work. Some farms also pump from the Berg River or boreholes in the granite and sandstone. The Berg River can flood in a wet winter and low lands along it go under. In town, homes below Paarl Mountain and in Dal Josafat drilled boreholes during the drought, and wineries and packhouses need effluent and wash water pumps. Pump shops, irrigation suppliers and rewinders work from Dal Josafat and the roads off the N1.
Typical tank pumps requests in the area come from:
- Farms: tank pumps supplying cottages, dairies and stores from storage
- Smallholdings and plots: a pump feeding the house from a tank filled by the borehole
- Offices, shops, hotels and lodges: backup tank pumps for schools, clinics, restaurants and offices
