Potchefstroom notes on water supply & purification
Households in Ikageng and Promosa keep reserve bottles for outages, and farmers outside town order bulk tankers. Because of hardness and river quality worries, under-counter filters and reverse osmosis are common in Baillie Park homes. Borehole owners should test for nitrates and bacteria first, then consider UV. Commercial buyers such as food producers sometimes ask about larger treatment plants.
Drinking water in Potchefstroom
Potchefstroom is a university and farming town on the Mooi River, with the Boskop Dam upstream and the famous dolomite eye springs nearby. Municipal water is generally treated, but the Mooi River has faced pollution concerns from upstream mining and farming, and ageing pipes have caused bursts in Ikageng and parts of Promosa. Hard groundwater is typical, and many homes and smallholdings rely on boreholes. Dispensers are used across the university campuses, student residences, schools, clinics, shopping centres, guesthouses, and the agricultural and engineering firms of the industrial area. Summers are hot, and lecture halls and sports fields keep cold water in steady demand.

The requests we see from Potchefstroom usually come from:
- Schools, crèches and colleges: filters under staffroom and crèche kitchen sinks, with cartridge changes timed for the school holidays
- Households: a twin cartridge filter with its own tap for drinking and cooking water in the kitchen
- Offices and business parks: a filter under the pantry sink feeding a tap and a plumbed-in coffee machine
