Do You Really Need A Borehole Drilled In Zimbabwe?

Boreholes have been a source of water for centuries. Despite this, their benefits are still relatively unknown to a lot of business owners. 

A borehole is a general term used to describe a deep hole intended to tap a natural resource, whether that be water, oil, or another liquid. Although getting one is costly, the long-term benefits of having a borehole are worth it, especially if you want to have a beautiful green garden, swim in good, fresh water, and not having to worry about your municipal water bill.

 The most common use of boreholes is as a self-sufficient water source for businesses and households in communities with no access to a reliable water supply. A deep hole is drilled down to the water source, the sides of the well are secured and a pump is installed to draw the water to the surface.

But why would a business or individual choose to invest in installing their own water source, rather than using a mains water source? 

There are a number of benefits to boreholes that we’ve examined in this article.

1. The Self-Sufficient Edge: Many consumers cite the fact that boreholes provide a self-sufficient edge as their primary benefit. The water contained within these holes has accumulated as a result of rain and natural run-off, so the consumer is merely accessing a resource that has accumulated as a result of the topography of their region. 

There is, therefore, no reliance on third party machinery or processes for the water supply. While mains can encounter problems from time to time, boreholes are completely independent of such risks. Some of the issues which can be avoided by using this type of commercial water source include:

• Supply problems.
• Faulty valves or burst pipes.
• Low flow rates during times of high demand.

Boreholes offer a continuous supply of water at a constant pressure. Furthermore, the chances of a fault are dramatically reduced due to the fact that the entire system is only meant to serve a single property.

2. Save Money in the Long Run: Though the drilling, installation and proper maintenance of a water borehole may represent a large upfront cost, a borehole can actually save you money in the long run. 

Not only will you cut down on your use of water from the municipal supply for large volume consumption activities such as watering the garden, taking on building and renovation projects that require water, but you will most especially save on your municipal water tariffs. 

When your municipal water consumption is very high, your municipal water bill is in turn high too – however, if you have your own water borehole you can use any quantity of water from that source without having to pay water bills.

3. Save Time: In rural areas and developing communities, women are usually responsible for collecting water say from streams, rivers, and they benefit by having a borehole as it lightens the burden of carrying water over long distances, saves time and reduces the danger of having to walk alone to fetch water.

 
4. Borehole Water is rich in minerals: One of the great things about getting water from the ground is that you get water that is full of minerals. A borehole is an excellent way to access pure and natural underground water. Borehole water is rich in naturally occurring minerals and hasn’t been treated or altered with any man-made chemical additives.

 
Boosts the value of your property The value of your house can simply go up by a couple of thousand dollars if you have drilled a borehole. Ultimately, these resources are able to provide invaluable benefits to the modern property owner. Although the principle of boreholes has changed little over the years, there is no doubt that their commercial and financial appeal is on the rise. We should also mention that these are environmentally friendly means to access a liquid which is vital to our very survival. 

Enjoying this “liquid” asset has never been easier.
