Key Takeaways
- Ground tanks should be cleaned every 6 months due to sediment and sand entry.
- Upper tanks need annual cleaning if they are well-sealed and clean externally.
- Green algae growth indicates light penetration or cracks causing leaks.
- Concentrated chlorine sterilization in correct proportions kills 99% of bacteria safely.
- Neglecting tank cleaning causes plumbing corrosion and clogs AC and washer filters.
In Saudi Arabia, we rely entirely on water tanks (ground and upper). These tanks store our drinking, cooking, and bathing water. Stagnant water with high temperatures is the perfect environment for bacteria and algae growth, making tank cleaning a non-negotiable health necessity.
⚠️ Danger Signs
If you notice "sand" at the bottom of the tub or a change in water taste, the tank silt has reached your plumbing. Stop usage and call for cleaning immediately.
