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
Khitan is a dense residential area in Farwaniya with multi-storey apartment blocks and some villas. Block tanks sit on roofs or in tank rooms near main stairs, serving dozens of flats. Water from a shared tank reaches taps at different heights and distances, so any tank sediment affects every tenant. Tanks here may carry rust from iron pipe or construction debris if not properly cleaned at handover. Deep cleaning needs total emptying and high-pressure washing.
Khitan is in Farwaniya governorate, a dense residential zone with multi-storey blocks and shared water tanks.
Flat tanks in Khitan are typically deeper and narrower than villa tanks because they fit in tight rooftop spaces.

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 Khitan
Every flat drawing from that tank. If water tastes off or looks wrong, every tenant complains. One cleaning solves it for everyone at once.
After cleaning we rinse the tank multiple times with fresh water and check for soap residue or dirt. Then we fill it with fresh government water, and after that you can drink.
