Best Answer

To provide a source of water for a range of applications.

This can include:

  • Drinking Water
  • Water for commercial uses (bottling plants, breweries etc)
  • Agriculture
  • Basically anything where water is used in large quantities.

The main reason for using a borehole rather than a normal water supplies are - location (not always easy to get water pumped in to rural places) and the potential cost savings. Borehole water is much cheaper than the water you get through your taps.
