A pump is sized by two numbers: how much water and how high it must go. Put them in one request for submersible pumps in Limpopo and we pass it to pump suppliers and installers working in towns and cities across Limpopo.
Submersible Pumps in Limpopo
Need a submersible pump in Limpopo? Say what it is for, the depth to the water or the size of the pit, where the water must go and what power you have. Independent pump suppliers and installers around Limpopo can then quote for the pump, the fittings and the installation.
The main submersible pumps page explains the types, the sizing and the costs in more detail.
Borehole & water supply in Limpopo: local notes
Game farms in the Waterberg and around Hoedspruit and Alldays run <a href="/solar-borehole-pumps/">solar borehole pumps</a> to fill troughs and water points, often with anti-theft mounts for the panels. Orchards near Tzaneen and Letsitele use three phase irrigation pumps from rivers and boreholes. Homes in Polokwane and Mokopane keep a borehole or a tank with a booster for when the municipal supply is off.
Who pumps what in Limpopo
Hot, dry for much of the year and spread over huge distances, Limpopo depends on boreholes more than most provinces. Polokwane and many villages draw a large share of their water from groundwater, and towns have had supply interruptions in long dry spells. Around Tzaneen and Letsitele, avocados, mangoes, citrus and nuts are irrigated from the Letaba catchment and from boreholes, while game farms in the Waterberg, near Hoedspruit and along the Limpopo valley pump water to troughs and pans with solar sets. Mining adds its own demand: platinum near Mokopane, coal at Lephalale and copper and phosphate at Phalaborwa all need dewatering and slurry pumps. Summer heat pushes motors hard, and storms bring lightning.
Who asks for submersible pumps around Limpopo, most often first:
- Farms: borehole and dam pumps for livestock water and irrigation, often on three phase
- Smallholdings and plots: one borehole pump for the house, the animals and the vegetable garden
- Mines and quarries: dewatering pumps for pits and shafts and slurry pumps for settling ponds
