Essential Water Tank Cleaning

💧 Essential Water Tank Cleaning

Keep your rainwater safe, fresh, and flowing with our Essential Water Tank Cleaning service — the simple, effective way to look after your tank and protect your water supply.

Over time, sediment, leaves, and organic matter settle on the bottom of your tank, reducing water quality and causing odours or blockages. Our team uses a specialised vacuum system to remove built-up sludge and debris without draining your tank, so you keep your stored water while we clean from the base up.

We also rinse the inlet and filter basket to help prevent future contamination and improve flow to your pumps, filters, and appliances.

✅ Ideal for homes, farms, and properties using tank water for drinking or irrigation
✅ No need to empty your tank
✅ Add a Sanitiser Treatment (+$65) for a food-grade disinfectant finish
✅ Serving Upper Beaconsfield, Beaconsfield, Pakenham, Berwick, Harkaway & surrounds

🕒 Recommended Cleaning Schedule

Keeping your rainwater system clean is simple if you stay on a regular maintenance cycle:

• Annually: A general filter clean once a year helps maintain healthy water and prevents build-up.

• Every 1–2 years: Book a more detailed inspection and clean to check internal tank condition and remove any settled sludge or sediment.

• Immediately if needed: If your water develops an odour, tastes different, turns discoloured, or after a major storm or heavy rainfall, it’s time for a more Complete Water Tank clean.

🌿 What Affects How Often You Need to Clean

Every tank is a little different. You may need to clean more often if:

• Your tank is near trees or exposed to dust and debris

• You collect rainwater from large roof areas

• You live in a warmer climate that promotes algae growth

• You notice insects or mosquitoes around the tank

🧰 Extra Maintenance Tips

• Inspect your system regularly — every few months, lift the lid and check the tank interior, inlet screen, and filters.

• Keep gutters and roofs clear — especially after wind or storms.

• Check filters and strainers to make sure they’re not clogged and still functioning properly.

• Test your water periodically if it’s used for drinking — or simply add a sanitiser treatment after cleaning for peace of mind.

💡 Recommended Service Frequency

We recommend booking a Water Tank Clean every 1–2 years to maintain safe, high-quality water and extend the life of your tank, pump, and filtration system.

A quick, low-impact service that keeps your water clear and your system running smoothly — ready for the next rainfall.
