Ramadan Drain CleaningWater tank cleaning in Faiha
Water tank cleaning in Faiha typically begins when you notice an odd smell or discoloration in the tap water. Faiha is a quiet suburban residential area in Kuwait with a mix of smaller flats, villas and older apartment blocks, and your tank collects sediment and deposits from years of use.
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
Faiha's apartment blocks are old, mostly built in the seventies and eighties, and tanks sit on rooftops or in basements. An older tank collects mud and rust far faster than a new one, especially if it has never been cleaned in years. We start with an internal inspection to assess the state, then pump out all the water and settled silt, wash the walls and floor with pressurised water, and rinse until the water runs clear.
Faiha is a residential area in Kuwait governorate, home to older apartment blocks with tanks on rooftops and in basements.
Faiha tanks require more intensive cleaning because most apartment blocks have gone decades without regular maintenance schedules.

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 Faiha
If you see odd colour in the water, smell something unusual, or the water comes out cloudy at first, those are signs of sediment buildup. Cleaning every year or two is better than letting it go for years.
It depends on tank size and how much silt has accumulated, but we usually spend two to three hours at the house. After cleaning, your water runs clear and tastes noticeably better.
