Grinda waterworks Sandnes water works did not have the capacity to cover the Germans' need for water. As early as 1941, the Germans therefore planned their own waterworks. The choice fell on the Grinavassdraget, which consists of Grinavatn and Lomstjørn. The capacity was calculated at 800,000 cubic meters a year. The water was of excellent quality and the waterworks had something as rare as an alkalising plant. The stone house that housed the facility still stands today. The water ran through crushed marble so that it became less acidic. The water was taken in a tunnel to a pressure basin above Hogstad, from here in a ten-inch main line to Sandnes. The main line was 10 km long, half of it wooden pipes. This waterworks supplied Sola with water until 1959
