ABOUT US
Dalmada Water Co-operation was founded in 1980 as a non-profit organization providing water to areas directly surrounding the Polokwane area, which were not being supplied with water at the time. The water network was developed primarily for household usage and funded entirely by the members of the cooperative.
Due to financial constraints, only a small distribution network was initially formed. However, Dalmada Water continues to upgrade its infrastructure annually to expand its area of service. In 1993, the Baskoppies and Tweefontein areas connected to Dalmada Water's existing infrastructure, and between 1995 and 1997, Doorenbult, Myngenoegen, Kalkfontein, and Roodepoort also joined the network. Today, Dalmada Water provides water to over 500 households surrounding Polokwane and continues to grow.
Since its inception, Dalmada Water has built seven reservoirs, and a pump station, and installed around 130 km of water pipeline to 520 water consumer points and various fire hydrant outlets.
Dalmada Water is currently in the process of building a new reservois in the Roodepoort area and future projects include upgrading the pipeline system to compensate for increasing demand.
