How Randburg Residents Are Tapping into Borehole Freedom
In the heart of Randburg, where the rising cost of municipal water has left homeowners and businesses searching for solutions, many are now turning to off-grid water systems. LiquaFlo Borehole Solutions has helped a growing number of Randburg residents reclaim control over their water supply by installing efficient, sustainable borehole systems—some of which are now saving families thousands of rands a year.
The shift toward self-sufficiency
Take the story of Mpho and Thandi Maseko, a couple living in Kensington B. Tired of monthly water restrictions and fluctuating bills, they reached out to LiquaFlo for a permanent fix. Within weeks, they had a fully operational borehole system tailored to their household’s needs, complete with a purification unit and pressure pump for stable water flow.
Their borehole now supplies water to their home and garden, and the best part? They’re off the municipal water grid completely.
“We used to pay over R1,500 monthly for water,” Mpho shared. “Now our system paid for itself within the first few months.”
