What to know locally in Eastern Cape
Bulk tanker deliveries support Makhanda, Despatch and other towns when taps fail, as well as farms in the Sundays River Valley. Bottled water delivery and refills serve households in KwaNobuhle, Mdantsane and Mthatha. In the Karoo, borehole filtration and RO are common because groundwater can be brackish, and many rural clinics add UV treatment for tank water.
Drinking water in Eastern Cape
The Eastern Cape has long been a province of two stories when it comes to water. Nelson Mandela Bay draws on the Kouga and Churchill dams and has been hit by drought and low storage, while Buffalo City relies on the Amatola system. Inland, Makhanda has faced severe supply problems for years, and in the former Transkei towns such as Mthatha, outages and burst pipes are frequent. Many rural villages depend on boreholes, springs and tanks. Automotive plants in Gqeberha and Coega, schools, clinics and guesthouses along the coast all depend on safe drinking water.

The requests we see from Eastern Cape usually come from:
- Factories, mines and building sites: process and canteen water to a set quality, with monitoring and a service plan
- Households: a larger treatment set-up for a big estate or complex sharing one borehole or tank
- Schools, crèches and colleges: a plant for the whole school, with filtered taps and dispensers in each block
