Cleaning water tanks is a crucial requirement for maintaining a water tank. Two methods that are commonly used are a diving or a draining approach. 

Dive Approach

The dive approach involves sending personnel into the water tank for a hands on inspection of its interior. This method offers several key benefits:

• Minimal Disruption: The tank can remain online with no undisturbed shutdown periods, ensuring continuous water supply.

• Complete Removal of Debris: During the dive, all sludge, algae and other contaminants are thoroughly cleaned form the tanks base. This minimises the risk of debris damaging external plumbing assets and pump sets, enhancing the overall efficiency and longevity of the system.

Drain Approach

Alternatively, the drain approach covers emptying the tank entirely to facilitate a comprehensive cleaning process. This method offers the following advantages:

• Comprehensive Cleaning: Draining the tank allows for a thorough clean, reaching areas that may not be accessible during a dive. This ensures the removal of all sediment, algae and debris, promoting water quality and system efficiency.

• Opportunity for Maintenance: With the tank offline, beneficial maintenance tasks can be performed to enhance the longevity of the structure and internal components. This includes repairs, inspections and upgrades that contribute to the overall integrity of the water storage system.

Regular maintenance, including dives and drains to conduct water storage tank cleaning, is essential to prevent bacterial growth, minimise corrosion from spreading, maintain water quality, and uphold the integrity of the water supply.
