Our Comprehensive Tank Cleaning Service Process
Our methodical approach ensures your cold water storage tanks and hot water cylinders are cleaned, inspected, and returned to service safely and efficiently.
1. Full Tank Drain Down & Isolations
Our first step is to safely isolate and drain the tank, ensuring no disruption to your building’s essential water supply where possible.
2. Thorough Internal Cleaning & Disinfection
Our technicians can perform a meticulous manual clean of all internal surfaces, removing sediment, biofilm, and scale. This is followed by a high-pressure wash and a complete disinfection using approved biocides.
3. Detailed Internal & External Inspection
We conduct a full visual inspection of the tank, inside and out. This includes checking the structural integrity, looking for signs of corrosion, ensuring the lid is secure and watertight, and verifying the condition of internal components like baffle plates.
4. System Flushing & Recommissioning
Once cleaning and inspection are complete, we refill the tank and flush the entire system to remove any disinfection residues. We then take water samples to validate the cleanliness of the water before formally recommissioning the system.
Is Your Tank Due for a Compliance Inspection?
Under the ACoP L8, regular inspection and cleaning of water storage tanks is a mandatory part of your legionella control regime. Neglecting this can lead to sludge, sediment, and biofilm buildup—the perfect environment for bacteria to multiply. Our service provides the documented proof you need for your compliance audit and helps you meet the requirements of the Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999.
When is Tank Cleaning & Inspection Required?
Regular maintenance is essential. Key triggers for our service include: Annual Inspection: As recommended by your legionella risk assessment. Contamination Event: Following a water quality test failure or suspected contamination. System Modifications: After any work on the tank or associated pipework. Visible Signs: If inspection shows sediment, debris, or biofilm.
