Ramadan Drain CleaningWater tank cleaning in Andalus
Water tank cleaning in Andalus varies by building type, a mixed neighbourhood near Andaalus Co-op with flats and single villas. A flat tank usually sits on the main roof, while a villa might have multiple tanks if it has a second storey or maid's room.
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
Andalus is a mixed neighbourhood with older apartment blocks alongside newer villas, each with different water distribution layouts. Flats collect water in one tank on the roof, while villas sometimes split the line into a main tank and a secondary tank for upper storeys. We inspect each tank separately and check for sediment and cloudiness on the floor. Once we finish the first tank we move to the second if it exists, so water from each tank stays clear for the whole house.
Andalus sits in Farwaniya governorate, a mixed neighbourhood with apartment blocks and villas near Andaalus Co-op.
Villas in Andalus with upper storeys need two separate tanks, each cleaned independently.

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 Andalus
Yes, we go to the roof and inspect both tanks. We start with the first one and empty it completely, then move to the second. Sometimes the second tank is cleaner because water there does not circulate as much.
Yes, as long as no new sediment enters from the municipal line, water runs clear at all taps in the house. If water stays cloudy on certain floors, the problem might be inside the house pipes, not the tank.
