Boreholes have grown in popularity in the northern suburbs, and owners ask about filtration and UV after a water test.
Drinking water in Gqeberha
Gqeberha is one of South Africa's windiest metros, and its water story has been shaped by drought. Nelson Mandela Bay draws mainly from the Kouga system, including Churchill and Impofu dams, with Loerie and Groendal as smaller sources and water piped in from the Orange River scheme. Reserves fell close to emergency levels in recent years, and restrictions, leak repairs and pressure management became routine. Water can taste earthy or chlorinated, and older mains cause discoloured taps. The motor industry in Kariega and Markman, the Coega zone, universities in Summerstrand and busy suburbs such as Walmer all keep drinking water on site, and many homes use tanks and filters.

Who asks for borehole water filtration around Gqeberha, most often first:
- Factories, mines and building sites: borehole water treated for a packhouse, abattoir or workshop that needs steady quality
- Offices and business parks: treated borehole water for a rural office park where the municipal supply is unreliable
- Households: a sediment, softener and UV train on a plot or smallholding with its own borehole
