Drainage, sewage & dewatering in Tzaneen: local notes
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 slurry pumps requests in the area come from:
- Farms: silted dams, dairy effluent and manure slurry moved to settling ponds
- Homeowners: rarely needed at home, perhaps to clear silt from a large ornamental dam
- Complexes, estates and body corporates: silted lakes and storm water ponds cleaned out during maintenance
