Recommended Cleaning Frequency: The frequency of water tank cleaning depends on various factors, including tank size, water usage, and water quality. As a general guideline, it is recommended to clean residential water tanks at least once a year. However, in certain cases, more frequent cleaning may be necessary. Larger tanks or those serving commercial or industrial purposes may require more frequent cleaning due to higher water demands and potential contamination risks. By the end, you should not be able to smell the cleaning product any more. If you can, refill and empty again and again until the tap water no longer smells. The expertise that Swiftclean have gained as a specialist in the hygienic control for building services plant ensures that the water systems will comply with the latest Health and Safety Guidelines and will avoid any violation of current regulations. Our experience and knowledge ensures our commercial tank cleaning is thorough and that cleaning and disinfection is done thoroughly and safely to prevent contamination.

Water tank cleaning and disinfection

Disinfect the water tank by running water out of all the taps in the distribution lines. Keep going until you can smell bleach in the water. This ensures the taps and pipes are thoroughly sterilised Where necessary Swiftclean will supply temporary tanks or bypass systems to maintain a constant water supply so no shut down period is necessary. Alternatively work is carried out at times which cause the least disruption to those using the water system.

It is important for the maintenance of your water tank that you maintain the right level of pH for disinfection to ensure water is kept clean and to prevent build up that can risk the growth of Legionella. It is important to consider that although a water tank may contain non-potable water, aerosols may be created during usage and also maintenance procedures should be considered and risk assessed for activities such as testing fire tanks.If you do choose to use bleach, be aware it can damage stainless steel, which many motorhome hot water boilers are made from.

In line with The Health and Safety Executive's HSG274 guidelines and code of practice (ACOP L8), you must adhere to the following: Once the required level of chlorine is achieved and maintained, the outlet of the tank may be opened to allow chlorinated water to flow around the system One of the reasons we like Puriclean is it cleans AND sterilises at the same time, making the whole process much easier. When and how often you should clean will differ depending on whether the cold water storage tanks serve the building’s drinking water are potable (used for washing hands etc) or non-potable (toilet flushing, possibly from rain water recovery) systems. Drinking water storage tanks need to be cleaned more regularly because they feed drinking water outlets. We’ve never done this, purely because the acetic acid we know of is hazardous to eyes and skin. Many people use it as a weed killer. You can get a milder dose (vinegar is only 4% acetic acid) but I question how effective this would be!However, many people don’t want to carry additional water for drinking, as it eats into space and payload, (1litre weighs 1kg) so keeping the water tank clean becomes a higher priority. Inform/communicate with all building users that cleaning work is about to take place (use signs as appropriate to reduce or prevent usage of showers/taps during work).
