What to investigate

Check whether any tank is filling, whether water pressure has dropped gradually or suddenly, and whether the pump controller reports an error. A technician can test the flow, pressure and electrical load.

Potential next steps

The repair depends on the test results: leak repair, valve replacement, pump servicing or reassessing the pump depth may be appropriate.

Planning in Vanderbijlpark

Confirm the water source, flow and pressure, power and storage arrangements, maintenance access and expected number of outlets on the actual property. Conditions are not uniform across Vanderbijlpark.

Local checks

Confirm applicable municipal requirements, permissions, installation specifications and any relevant testing with appropriate professionals or authorities.

Safety considerations

Avoid allowing a pump to run dry repeatedly; it may overheat and fail.
