Our Cleaning Process in Brief

At North Coast Water Tanks, we follow a thorough and efficient tank water cleaning process. Our process includes:

FAQs

1. How safe is your water?

Rural and acreage residents who rely solely on tank water are the most susceptible to Giardia, Cryptosporidium, and other harmful parasites in their drinking water.

In these rural settings, wildlife such as possums, birds, cats, and flying foxes can contaminate catchment areas, which provide water supply directly into the storage tanks for rainwater. In most scenarios, rainwater is collected from roof tops, along gutters, and via down pipe systems into the storage rainwater tank.

A buildup of organic vegetation and constant traffic of wildlife can cause organic and faecal matter to find its way directly into the storage tank, contaminating the drinking water. Even the most vigilant home owner cannot prevent contamination of their water supply.

Regular cleaning of debris off roof tops and gutters will help prevent contamination; however, thorough cleaning of sludge from the bottom of the water tank and subsequent sanitisation of the water and tank are also required on a regular basis.

For city people that also use their rainwater tanks for laundry washing and other ‘grey water’ tasks, it is still very easy for cross-contamination to occur. For this reason, it is extremely important to ensure regular cleaning and sanitization of your water tank is conducted.

North Coast Water Tanks are specialists in water filtration and can easily purify any water source. We have a huge range of quality water filtration systems to protect you and your family from these sickening diseases.

2. Do you know what is inside your rainwater tank?

If you store and harvest rainwater and have tank water at your property, this water may be at risk of being contaminated. Stored rainwater in rural and domestic rainwater tanks may appear clear and clean, but it is very likely the water tank will contain organic contaminants as well as micro-organisms including bacteria, viruses, algae, protozoa, parasites, and mould spores, which may enter your tank via your roof catchment area. North Coast Water Tanks’ cleaning process is suitable for:

Rainwater tanks
