Without a doubt, water is an essential part of our lives and we cannot do without it. It quenches our thirst and is also vital for cleaning, cooking, and personal hygiene. Even though clean water eliminates toxins from the body and helps in other various ways as well, contaminated water presents a big risk to the health of humans. It is the reason it is vital to clean the water tanks established in our homes and workplaces regularly. At ATM Tanks we appreciate this and have therefore compiled this list for you, showing the advantages of water tank cleaning and inspections.
1. Dirty water consists of many dangerous germs
If you do not clean or disinfect water regularly, it can make the water store different impurities that may have a lot of harmful germs. Issues arising from water contamination mainly present themselves as parasitic, viral, or bacterial infections. Each of them can lead to gastroenteritis, diarrhoea, and severe intestinal issues.
If tanks are not clean, they can easily get polluted with time and may be dangerous to drink or even clean. When a water tank is cleaned regularly it greatly lowers the risk to the building or home occupants.
2. If the water tank is unclean, water filtration systems may not be 100% effective
Many of us have installed water filtration systems in our houses. But, their function may not be 100% effective if the tank contains dirty water. They might be effective only with specific types of impurities and particles but may not prevent infections, leading to water-borne diseases.
3. Plumbing problems
When you clean your water tank regularly it prevents the build-up of impurities that can cause plumbing problems in the pipes that supply the water to your workplace or home.
4. Unhealthy water is a major cause of death
It is a global truth that worldwide, unhealthy water ranks sixth as the cause of death. Many of us do not clean our water tanks often and this habit can be fatal. Even if we filter the water for cooking and drinking, we use unfiltered water for other purposes like washing, brushing our teeth, etc.
Cleaning Panel Tanks
ATM Tanks endeavours to provide you with an uncomplicated service to maintain and inspect your panel tank using their effective program. We offer you a detailed and comprehensive service, making sure that the installed tanks will give you optimal performance and efficiency as intended.
Our panel tank cleaning services provided:
- We examine the tanks and make sure that they are working as needed to comply with AS2304 standards.
- Issue complete reports and Code Compliance certificates.
- Give reports and help in the maintenance of Australian Standards and the building’s insurance.
To meet warranty and insurance needs, the likely, destructive, defective issues and harmful pressures that the tanks can experience over time should be avoided.
With time, tanks can slowly accumulate destructive materials that can prevent the tank’s effectiveness and overall integrity. ATM tanks examine the tank and solve the tank issues. We will suggest the ideal step you should take to resolve and fix these issues. We regularly inspect tanks each year to ensure that the tanks comply with the general integrity and important codes and standards. The inspections also prevent costly repairs, accidental leaks and avoid the effect on future warranty, for instance, for insurance needs.
ATM Tank’s process is a conclusive examination of the tank’s general condition. We will give you an expert report indicating a list of the findings and advise the work that needs to be done. Internal and external inspection components include specifying the faults and crucial maintenance needs.
Steps to take before cleaning water storage tanks
Before ATM Tanks cleans your tank, our professional team checks the temperature of the water coming from the incoming mains and ball valve. We examine the structural supports beneath the tanks to ensure they are in a good state and also make sure that the overflows are fitted.
Checking for leaks helps ascertain that all pipe work is suitably braced and examine all internal supports for corrosion. If the tank has a condensation tray we make certain that the fitted overflow is not damaged. Fitted tank ladders should be fixed firmly to the tank.
