Ramadan Drain CleaningWater tank cleaning in Funaitees
The water tank in Funaitees is as vital as anything in the house, but most people forget about it until the water turns cloudy. Funaitees is a residential area near Mubarak Al-Kabeer with multi-storey apartment blocks and closely-spaced villas, each with tanks placed according to building design.
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
Funaitees has many apartment blocks, and each building has one or more tanks on the roof serving all units. Lower and upper flats draw from the same tank, so a dirty tank affects everyone. Villas in Funaitees sit close together, and their tanks sometimes sit in narrow passages between walls. When we arrive to clean, we focus on removing accumulated mud and dirt and fully draining the sediment traps.
Funaitees is a residential area in Mubarak Al-Kabeer governorate with apartment blocks and closely-spaced villas sharing rooftop tanks.
Funaitees tanks serve multiple flats or villas together, so any sediment in them affects water quality for more households at once.

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 Funaitees
All units sharing the tank must agree to cleaning and split the cost. We access and clean the tank fully from outside, serving everyone connected to it.
The water might look cloudy for the first day or two because the tank was just cleaned. Let the tap run until the water clears, this is completely normal.
