What to know locally in Mahikeng
Around Mahikeng, the provincial government offices in Mmabatho and the busy corridors of the Mega City shopping area are where freestanding coolers dominate. Bottom-loading units suit reception desks, while schools in Montshiwa and Lomanyaneng often choose simple hot and cold units for staff rooms. Where the tap water is mineral, plumbed-in dispensers with a sediment stage are worth asking for, since scale builds up inside hot tanks.
Drinking water in Mahikeng
Mahikeng sits on a dry bushveld plain where groundwater has long mattered. The Molopo Eye near Grootfontein is a well known source, and the local municipality also draws on dams and boreholes to keep taps running. Supply in Mmabatho and the outlying villages has often been interrupted by pump failures, power cuts and ageing pipes, so many yards keep a plastic tank on a stand. Water can taste mineral and leaves scale in kettles. Provincial departments, the university campus, schools, clinics and guesthouses around Mmabatho are the main dispenser users, and summer heat pushes demand up every December.
Typical bottom-loading water dispensers requests in the area come from:
- Offices and business parks: a tidy bottom-loading unit in reception or the tearoom, loaded by the cleaner or the supplier
- Households: a cabinet dispenser in the kitchen that older family members can reload without lifting
- Schools, crèches and colleges: a staffroom unit with a closed cabinet, so bottles stay out of the way of small hands
