Dispensers & coolers in North West: local notes
Rustenburg mine offices and shaft canteens are big users of floor-standing coolers because staff drink heavily in the heat. Hot and cold units suit the guesthouses around Sun City and the Hartbeespoort lodges. In Potchefstroom, university residences and student shops favour countertop dispensers that are easy to move. Plumbed-in options need a good look at the water first, since hard borehole water can scale hot tanks quickly.
Drinking water in North West
North West is dry, flat and hot in summer, with limited surface water, so many towns rely on the Vaal, the Crocodile and the Hartbeespoort Dam, and on boreholes sunk into dolomite aquifers around Lichtenburg and Mahikeng. Rustenburg's platinum mines and their staff villages use huge volumes of drinking water, and when a pump station or pipeline fails, the effect spreads quickly. Farms outside Potchefstroom and Klerksdorp often run on borehole water that is hard and sometimes salty. Clinics, schools and smallholdings across the province regularly buy water in bottles or in tanks.
The requests we see from North West usually come from:
- Factories, mines and building sites: a compact unit in a site office or foreman's cabin where there is room for little else
- Farms, smallholdings and villages: a hand-fill tank unit in a farm office or cottage, filled from a tank or treated borehole
- Offices and business parks: a table top dispenser at reception or in a small team kitchen where a full unit is too big

Countertop Water Dispensers usually suit flats, small offices, salons and kitchens, and work like this: small bottle, hand-filled tank or tap-fed. For factories, mines and building sites, the biggest group here, that usually means a compact unit in a site office or foreman's cabin where there is room for little else. On the water side: borehole water is often hard and mineral rich; test before you filter.
