Ramadan Drain CleaningWater tank cleaning in Adailiya
Water tank cleaning in Adailiya usually starts when the water tastes odd or looks discoloured in the tank. Adailiya is a residential area near the German Embassy and local parks, with a mix of older and newer apartment blocks, each with one or two roof tanks.
Tank symptoms
When a tank needscleaning.
A tank does not complain out loud. It complains through the water leaving it.
01
The taste or smell changed
If the taste or the smell changes at every tap at once, the source is shared, and the first place to look is the tank rather than a tap or the filter fitted to it.
02
Grit in the tap aerator
Unscrew a tap aerator and find fine grit in it, and sediment is moving off the tank floor. It lifts whenever the level drops and the draw on the tank gets stronger.
03
The lid is broken or missing
An open or broken lid lets Kuwaiti dust straight into the tank, and daylight in with it. Between them they spoil the water inside a tank that is otherwise perfectly sound.
04
Green on the inside wall
Green growth needs light. Seeing it inside a tank means light is getting in through a translucent lid, a crack or an open vent, and cleaning alone will not stop it returning.

What setsthis area apart
Older apartment blocks in Adailiya sometimes have tanks without proper sealed covers, so moisture, dust and insects creep in from the roof. Newer blocks mostly have one insulated tank, but we still have to remove the cover and scrub the floor completely to shift the brown sediment. We check every tank outlet and make sure the pipes running down to the flats are not fouled inside.
Adailiya sits in Kuwait governorate, a residential district with apartment blocks alongside parks and shopping facilities.
Most Adailiya apartment blocks have their tanks at roof level, though some older tower blocks have a small secondary tank attached to the side.

How it is done
From empty backto full.
A tank is cleaned empty. It cannot be cleaned with water in it.
We close the inlet and drain
The filling line is closed and the tank is drained through its drain valve or with a small pump, until only the layer on the floor is left.
We lift the sediment out
The layer on the floor is lifted out whole rather than stirred, because stirring it with water spreads it back across the walls and into the outlet.
We wipe walls and roof
The inner walls and the underside of the roof are wiped, because the film that clings above the water line is what comes back down with the first refill.
We rinse and check the lid
A final rinse leaves through the drain valve, then the lid, the openings and the float are checked, and we tell you if anything needs changing before it fills.
Common questions
Questions about Water tank cleaning in Adailiya
Water from the tap smells foul, looks dark, or has white sediment in the glass. All of these mean there is sludge and debris on the tank floor that needs to be removed.
Yes, we need to isolate the intake line a few minutes before we start, but you can still use the water already in the network pipes while we work. Once we finish cleaning, we turn the line back on and let the tank refill.
