Kimberley notes on installation, repairs & parts
Kimberley's pump shops and rewinders serve a huge area, from city boosters to farm borehole pumps hundreds of kilometres out. Drillers who know the dolerite are worth asking about siting, but no one can promise water. Solar quotes should include anti-theft mounting. Pump hire is available for flooded sites and diggings, and spares like pressure switches and capacitors are kept in town.
Kimberley: the properties, the water and the pump shops
Kimberley's water arrives by pipeline from the Vaal River, and when a pipe bursts or a pump station fails, whole suburbs can go without water for days. That has made tanks, boosters and boreholes a normal sight in Hadison Park, Beaconsfield and the newer suburbs. Outside the city, the dry Northern Cape takes over: sheep, cattle and game farms water stock from boreholes, and solar pumps are replacing windmills on many of them. Irrigation farms along the Riet River near Ritchie and the Vaal toward Barkly West grow crops under pivots and canals. Ground is mostly dolerite and shale, which makes borehole siting more skill than luck. Diamond diggings on the river need small dewatering and slurry pumps.
Typical pump hire requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: a drainage pump hired for a weekend to empty a flooded garage or a pool
- Smallholdings and plots: a diesel pump hired to move water from a dam with no power nearby
- Municipalities, schools and clinics: diesel pumps hired to clear flooded roads and underpasses
Local tips for Kimberley
Common here: tank and booster backup for supply failures, farm solar pumps, diggings pumps. Ask each supplier about this: ask how large a tank you need to last through a multi-day outage. Where they work from: pump shops and rewinders in Kimberley's industrial areas, drillers serving the district.
Pump Hire usually suit floods, building sites, dams, pools, events. How it is fitted: delivered, set up and collected. For homeowners, the biggest group here, that usually means a drainage pump hired for a weekend to empty a flooded garage or a pool. On the ground and water: dolerite and shale; very hot summers, cold dry winters, low and unreliable rain.
