What to know locally in Tzaneen
Guest farms and lodges on the escarpment around Magoebaskloof and Haenertsburg often use small sewage pumps or pump stations where the ground slopes away from the septic system. Heavy summer rain washes silt into farm dams and sumps, so drainage and dirty water pumps get plenty of use. Packhouses in the Letsitele valley need drainage and sump pumps for wash water.
Who pumps what in Tzaneen
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 sewage pump stations requests in the area come from:
- Farms: staff housing and a farm stall pumped to treatment with a small package station
- Complexes, estates and body corporates: a station at the low corner of the estate lifting all waste to the municipal sewer
- Offices, shops, hotels and lodges: lodges, schools, hospitals and malls with duty and standby stations on contract
