What to know locally in Kariega
The motor plant and its suppliers run sumps, wash water and effluent pumps that need regular servicing, and fire pump sets that must be tested. When the Swartkops River and its streams rise, low lying parts of Despatch and the town need drainage pumps. Pools are common in the hot summers, so pool pump repairs and drainage pumps for emptying pools are steady work.
Water and ground in Kariega
Long before the dams, Kariega drew water from springs, and groundwater is still part of the story in the dry country around the town. During the Nelson Mandela Bay drought many homes in Kariega and Despatch drilled boreholes, and smallholdings around Kruisrivier and along the Groendal road pump for gardens, livestock and vegetables. The motor industry is the town's big employer, and the plant and its suppliers run process water, cooling, fire and sump pumps. The Swartkops River can flood after heavy rain, and low parts of Despatch and the town have taken water in the past. Hot, dry summers mean pools and garden irrigation pull on pumps, and hard water can scale up fittings and pressure switches.
Typical slurry pumps requests in the area come from:
- Factories, plants and depots: process slurries, mill scale pits and settling tanks in factories
- Offices, shops, hotels and lodges: car wash silt traps and sand traps at large sites emptied
- Farms: silted dams, dairy effluent and manure slurry moved to settling ponds
