Water tank cleaning is an extremely essential part of water hygiene and something to be taken seriously both domestically and commercially. It is important that tanks are inspected regularly and cleaned when required to prevent bacterial proliferation and maintain high-quality water. Protecting the tank system’s users from potentially fatal diseases such as Legionnaires’ disease is vital, particularly when the users are vulnerable people such as children, the elderly, people with pre-existing illnesses, smokers, etc. These tanks should be inspected annually for their condition to identify if a water tank clean is required.
In order to minimize the risk from Legionella and other forms of bacteria, it is essential that water storage tanks are subject to a full inspection on a regular basis.

Water is the secret of life, a basic source of survival. We use it for drinking, eating, showering, cleaning, agriculture, industry, and others. So storing water in a clean tank became a very important thing as it interferes with the derivatives of our lives and has a great impact on our health.
There are many types of bacteria that settle in troubled waters and may cause serious diseases and sometimes even death, including the potentially fatal legionella. Therefore, caring about cleaning a water tank is very important because it relates to our life, health, and the health of our children, so we must at least clean the water tank twice a year, but it also depends on the quality of water supplied into homes. If the water is very hard and high in TDS, then sedimentation will happen more often. In such cases, more than two annual water tank cleaning is required.
Clean the area around the tank carefully and make sure that it was cleaned well, and also the top of the tank.
Sanitize and clean the tools that are used in cleaning the tank.
Water and sludge are drained out from the tank using a sludge pump.
Clean the tank manually to remove dirt, sediment, fungi, and stains by using a brush or sponge to clean it from any dirt and dust.
Wash the internal walls and base with a 10% FEEDCHLOR solution, you can use the brush or sponge to clean the water tank from stains and the need to make sure that you get rid of sediment, and finally, wash the tank using a high-pressure jet.
Make sure that all the dust was cleaned by the vacuum cleaning, then exit the tank and add enough FEEDCHLOR to ensure that when refilling the tank at least 65 ppm of chlorine is entered, i.e. at least 0.65 liters of FEEDCHLOR per 1000 liters of tank capacity, this must be measured with chlorine test strips.
Clean the tank and spray with antibacterial and disinfectant to ensure all sediments are removed.
The tank is filled with water that is made to run through the taps to disinfect the water pipes.
Water from the tank is drained through the taps and the tank is left empty for drying.
The tank is clean and ready to be filled with water for domestic use.
Dechlor must be added at a rate of 11 ml per ppm of chlorine per m3 of water.
Check this case to understand more: Removing 40 ppm of free remaining chlorine in a 20 m3 tank requires:
11 (ml) x 40 (ppm) x 20 (m3) = 8,800 ml OR: = 8.8 liters of dechlor
Note: It is important not to over-remove the chlorine as this will absorb any residual free chlorine in the next main.
Some people are accustomed to cleaning water and killing bacteria every period, usually every three months, This is how? It takes about 5 mg of chlorine per liter to clean water in the tank. However, this will depend on the water quality. For effective disinfection, there should be at least 0.5 milligrams per liter (mg / l) in water 30 minutes after consuming water.
But this home cleansing does not reduce the importance of the professional cleaning service, it only keeps the water from turbidity.

The risk of colonization in hot water tanks is great between 40 and 50 degrees Celsius ... the bacteria that cause legions grow more easily in some electric water tanks because of the way they are designed. You can still lower the water temperature by installing safety valves.
