6 Steps to Clean Tank Water

Water Tank Care

Caring for your water in your water tanks is very important, my personal preference is not to use chemicals to clean the water, the water from our sky's are already clean just keep them well maintained. 

What steps can you take to have clean water:

1. Gutter Protection

Protect your gutter with a gutter protection like a gutter foam, they all keep most of the leaves out of your plastic water tank

Have a look at the range of Gutter foam products on our website

2. Install a leaf eater

Protect further contaminates by installing a leaf eater for the further protection of your plastic water tank.

3. Install a first flush diverter

Installing a first flush diverter is an awesome way of keeping your tank water fresh, is removes some of the small contaminates from the roof like bird droppings dust poisons from aerial spraying etc, it does use water to clean the roof that is not collected so be aware you should add this to you calculations for water requirements.

4. Tank Vacuum system

Tank Vacuum Systems remove the sediment from the bottom of a tank by drawing the overflow water from the bottom of the plastic water tank

5. Water Filtration

Tank filters are used after the pump for water going into the house, these filters remove fine particles from the water normally you would install a two filter system, a 20 micron and 1 micron filter we sell these as part of our UV filtration systems on our website

Additional Carbon filters can be installed at the kitchen sink with a drinking water tap and also connect to you fridge drinking water so you plastic water tanks water is as fresh and clean as can be

6. Water Sterilisation with UV light

Passing your water through UV sterilisation light will kill most the bad bacteria inside the water, this helps create safe e-coli free water source the whole family can enjoy
