Regular water tank maintenance is very necessary to ensure that the stored water is of good quality, especially rain water tanks where debris from the roof or gutter can enter the tank. The article below offers some useful tips for cleaning rain barrels and small water tanks.
As time goes by, your useful rain barrel or water tank will eventually collect and end up accumulating a lot of organic debris, sediment and more, regardless of whether or not it’s your only rain harvesting water source. Pieces of bird waste, dust, grit, pollen, seeds and leaves as well as many other things may end up in the water you’re collecting if you’re not diligent about cleaning it up. This debris will eventually end up settling in the water and forming a layer of all manner of muck on the bottom of the tank. They will eventually grow algae on the bottom and walls of the water tank.
Check the spigot of the barrel or tank and make sure it works, reconnect your tank and wait for rain once more. Bayswater Commercial Cleaning Service can do your house and office cleaning as often as you like.
