Water tanks and booster pumps

Backup water that works when the municipal supply does not. Tanks, pumps and pipework installed across Polokwane and surrounds.

Water tank with booster pump and copper lines up the wall

A tank is only as good as the way it is connected.

Water outages are part of life in Limpopo. A storage tank with a booster pump keeps taps, showers and toilets running when the supply drops, and keeps the pressure up when it is low.

We deliver and set up the tank, fit the booster pump with a pressure control, and connect it all to the house in copper with isolation valves, so the system can be switched between tank and mains and serviced later without draining everything.

Pumps go into a ventilated protective cover, or a steel security cage where theft is a concern. The pipework is clipped level and neat along the walls, because it will be on show for years.

Already have a tank that is not working the way it should? We also repair, re-plumb and upgrade existing systems.

Frequently asked questions

Do you guarantee your work?

Yes. All our labour carries a 6-month guarantee. Materials and parts carry their own guarantees, which differ per product and supplier, so ask us about the guarantee on the materials used in your job.

Why do I need a booster pump with a water tank?

A tank standing on the ground gives almost no pressure on its own. A booster pump pushes the water into the house at a pressure that works for showers, taps and toilets, and a pressure control switches it on only when a tap is opened.

Can I still use municipal water once a tank is installed?

Yes. We plumb the system with valves so the house can run from the tank or from the mains. Ask us about the options for your house when we quote.

Do you supply the tank?

Yes. We can supply and deliver the tank and pump, and install everything in one job.

How do you protect the pump from theft and weather?

Pumps go into a ventilated protective cover, or a steel security cage that bolts to the ground where theft is a concern.

Can you fix an existing tank and pump that is not working properly?

Yes. We repair, re-plumb and upgrade existing backup water systems, including pumps that cycle on and off or give poor pressure.
