Maintaining an equipped borehole: five good practices
A well-maintained borehole provides safe water for many years. Here are the essential steps.
- Keep the area around the pump clean and make sure wastewater drains away.
- Regularly check the pump and replace wearing parts.
- Have the water tested at least once a year.
- Keep a maintenance log shared by the management committee.
- Set aside savings for major repairs.
Our teams support management committees in putting these practices in place.
