Water Dispenser Repairs in Durban

Durban notes on rental & service

Rental is popular with start-ups in Umhlanga and Gateway, who prefer a monthly fee over buying equipment. Event hire is steady around Moses Mabhida Stadium, the ICC and the Durban July weekend crowds at Greyville. Cleaning and filter changes matter in humid conditions where bacteria and mould grow faster inside reservoirs. Technicians based near Pinetown, Jacobs and Springfield Park usually cover the whole metro on a route.

Drinking water in Durban

Most of Durban's tap water comes through Umgeni-uThukela Water, which treats raw water from the Umgeni and uMlazi catchments, with Midmar, Albert Falls, Nagle and Inanda dams feeding the system. eThekwini then distributes it, and the network is old in places. Pipe bursts, reservoir maintenance and storm damage to mains have left parts of Umlazi, Inanda and the south basin dry for days at a time. The humid coastal summer keeps people drinking all day, so offices on the Berea ridge, hotels along the beachfront and the warehouses of Prospecton and Springfield Park lean on cooled bottled water. Many homes keep a plastic tank on the roof as a buffer.

  • Factories, mines and building sites: heavy use units in canteens and change houses repaired with sturdier parts and a service schedule
