What to know locally in Klerksdorp
Grain and cattle farms around Klerksdorp water stock from boreholes, and a good number now use solar borehole pumps instead of windmills, with a reservoir for cloudy days. In Flamwood, Wilkoppies and Doringkruin, boreholes keep gardens alive through dry spells and water cuts. Ask the driller about nearby holes and old mine ground before drilling, and test the water if you plan to drink it.
Who pumps what in Klerksdorp
Gold built Klerksdorp, Stilfontein and Orkney, and the mines left behind a big pumping problem. Underground workings fill with water once pumping stops, so shafts in the goldfield still need large high head pumps to keep water from rising into neighbouring mines, and tailings dams need slurry and return water pumps. The town also serves a wide grain district: maize and sunflower farms toward Hartbeesfontein and Ottosdal pump from boreholes for houses and livestock, and solar pumps are replacing windmills. Houses in Flamwood and the older suburbs add boreholes and tanks where supply is unreliable. The Vaal River to the south feeds irrigation farms. Water near mining ground can carry sulphate or metals, so test it before use.
Who asks for pressure tanks around Klerksdorp, most often first:
- Mines and quarries: pressure vessels on site water and wash down systems
- Farms: large vessels on borehole and irrigation systems to reduce starts
- Homeowners: a small tank on the booster so the pump stops starting for every tap
