Tank Cleaning
According to Bermuda law (The Public Health (Water Storage) Regulations 1951), a water tank on a residential property must be cleaned “not less often than once in every six years”.
How clean is your tank and how safe is your water?
It’s not something that concerns most of us as we go about our daily lives, but it may be worth you taking a closer look.
This maybe growing inside of your tank!
-
Check your tank levels regularly, at least once a month
-
Clean your tank at least once every five years
-
Trim overhanging trees to prevent leaves from entering your tank
-
Disinfect water – 1/4 cup of household bleach to every 1000 gallons of water. Use formula: tank length x tank width x tank depth x 6.25 = tank capacity in gallons
