Borehole & water supply in Tzaneen: local notes
Citrus and avocado farms around Tzaneen and Letsitele pump from dams, rivers and boreholes into drip and micro irrigation, often with several three phase pumps on a filter station. Boreholes on smallholdings toward Politsi supply houses and small orchards. In town, houses keep a tank and booster for water cuts. Ask your supplier to size irrigation pumps to the blocks and pressures the system needs, not to the biggest pump available.
Tzaneen: the properties, the water and the pump shops
Fruit sets the pace in Tzaneen. Citrus around Letsitele, avocados and macadamias on the slopes toward Politsi and Duiwelskloof, and mangoes and bananas in the warmer valleys all run on irrigation, so most pump work here is about moving water from the Letaba system, farm dams and boreholes to drip and micro sprinklers. Growers want reliable three phase pumps, filters and VSDs, and the busiest time for repairs is the dry winter and spring. The escarpment toward Magoebaskloof and Haenertsburg is much wetter, with forestry, trout dams and guest farms. Town houses use tanks and boosters when supply is interrupted. Heavy summer rain and lightning test control boxes and pump stations every season.
Typical pressure tanks requests in the area come from:
- Farms: large vessels on borehole and irrigation systems to reduce starts
- Smallholdings and plots: a larger tank on the borehole system for steady pressure to the house
- Homeowners: a small tank on the booster so the pump stops starting for every tap
