What to know locally in Centurion
Because many stands sit on dolomite, a <a href="/booster-pumps/">booster pump</a> on a water tank is often the first choice for backup water in Eldoraigne, Lyttelton and Highveld. Where the municipality allows a borehole, ask the driller about the dolomite and the yield, since holes can vary greatly over short distances. Smallholdings at Mnandi and Erasmia on the western side run borehole pumps for houses, horses and vegetable tunnels.
Who pumps what in Centurion
Dolomite shapes every water decision in Centurion. Sinkholes have opened in Lyttelton, Eldoraigne, Valhalla and along the N1 over the years, and drilling a borehole or letting water leak into the ground on dolomite can make things worse, so Tshwane controls boreholes in these areas and may ask for a geotechnical report. Where drilling is allowed, the dolomite can hold a lot of water. Many households in Rooihuiskraal, Wierda Park and Midstream rely instead on water tanks and boosters through cuts. The Hennops River floods the low ground around the Centurion lake in heavy storms, and smallholdings at Mnandi, Erasmia and Olievenhoutbosch run on borehole water.

- Homeowners: a small solar pump filling a garden tank from the borehole without using grid power
- Municipalities, schools and clinics: village water schemes and rural standpipes fed from a solar borehole
- Complexes, estates and body corporates: a solar pump filling irrigation tanks for the communal gardens
