Water Tank Cleaning & Disinfection

Cold Water Systems: The importance of Water Tank Cleaning and Disinfection Services

 

Maintaining the cleanliness and disinfection of your water tank is crucial for ensuring the safety and quality of your drinking water. Over time, sediment, debris, and harmful bacteria can accumulate in water tanks, which can compromise the purity of the water and lead to health issues. To prevent this, it is important to follow a regular maintenance routine.

Especially during the summer months, when temperatures are higher, it is essential to properly maintain your water tank, whether it is located in your loft space or outdoors. The warmer temperatures create an environment where bacteria, such as Legionella, can thrive. Following the guidelines provided by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), it is recommended to regularly check the temperature of the water in the tank and conduct annual inspections to ensure its cleanliness and safety.

Recently, our team performed a thorough clean and disinfection of an outdoor water storage tank. The tank had accumulated a significant amount of sediment, which can provide a breeding ground for bacteria if left untreated. The best way to address this issue is to conduct a complete clean and chlorination process.

After the disinfection process, we also conduct microbiological sampling to ensure that the water is safe and clean. This provides peace of mind to our customers. If you are in need of water tank cleaning services, please contact us for a quote today!
