Borehole Drilling & Pumps in Zambia
Boreholes are common in Zambia for domestic water supply, especially in areas where Lusaka Water and Sewerage Company (LWSC) service is unreliable. Borehole drilling typically costs ZMK 15,000 – ZMK 40,000 depending on depth, with the submersible pump as an additional cost.
Solar water pumps are increasingly popular in rural Zambia, eliminating electricity costs and working reliably in areas without grid power.
