Focus on eliminating sediments, algae, and any microbial growth to ensure water quality is not compromised. Rinse thoroughly with clean water to remove any residual cleaning agents, ensuring the tank is safe for refilling.

  5. ALGAE PREVENTION TECHNIQUES Position tanks in shaded or covered areas to minimize direct sunlight exposure, reducing algae growth. Install tank covers or use algae- resistant coatings to protect water from light and contaminants. Consider the addition of safe, water treatment options designed to inhibit algae growth without compromising water quality. Regularly clean and maintain the tank's surroundings to prevent algae spores from entering.

  6. CHECKING FOR LEAKS AND CRACKS Regularly checking your plastic water storage tank for leaks and cracks is a critical component of maintenance that ensures the tank's structural integrity and the safety of the water. During inspections, look closely at the tank's surface for any signs of damage, such as hairline cracks or leaking seams, which can be early indicators of structural failure.

  7. MAINTAINING TANK COMPONENTS 1 2 Regularly inspect and maintain tank components like valves, pipes, lids, and vents to ensure they are functioning correctly and securely fitted. Promptly replace worn or damaged parts to prevent leaks, contamination, and ensure efficient water flow and storage.
