Ramadan Drain CleaningWater tank cleaning in Ali Sabah Al-Salem
Water tank cleaning in Ali Sabah Al-Salem is essential because water travels a long distance from the pump station to your home. Ali Sabah Al-Salem is a coastal residential co-op in Ahmadi, and tanks there accumulate sediment quickly because of the long supply run.
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.
This area
What setsthis area apart
Ali Sabah Al-Salem co-op flats were built in the same era, and most tanks sit on residential block rooftops. Salty sea air and marine spray affect the tank's outer condition, and sediment from the long journey builds up inside. We drain completely, scoop out dried silt and salt deposits, scrub the floor and walls thoroughly, check all pipes for leaks, then refill.
Ali Sabah Al-Salem sits in Ahmadi governorate, a coastal residential suburb run as a co-operative housing society.
Co-op tanks in Ali Sabah Al-Salem collect more salt and marine sediment than inland areas because of the coastal location.

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 Ali Sabah Al-Salem
Yes, it corrodes metal and weakens paint. We check the tank inside and out each time and tell you if the metal base is starting to fail.
Salt dries into a hard crust that needs scrubbing to break, regular sediment washes away easily. We clean both, but salt takes longer.
