Ramadan Drain CleaningWater tank cleaning in NW Sulaibikhat
Water tank cleaning in NW Sulaibikhat usually starts when you notice the water taste has changed or looks slightly cloudy. The area has relatively new apartment blocks and villas, with tanks sitting on rooftops or in basement chambers, and water pressure must reach every floor.
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
Most buildings in NW Sulaibikhat are apartment blocks with medium floor counts, and the main tank sits on the roof usually, collecting water from the main line and pushing it down to flats below. In newer villas the tank sometimes sits in an underground chamber. When we clean the tank we run the pump first to clear sediment and silt from the floor, then drain completely and wash the walls and base with clean water.
NW Sulaibikhat sits in Kuwait governorate, a modern residential zone with apartment blocks and villas fed by overhead and underground tanks.
Apartment tanks in NW Sulaibikhat need cleaning every year or two because the main supply lines carry cumulative mineral deposits.

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 NW Sulaibikhat
We open the top cover, drain all water, and either enter the tank if space allows or use long hoses for washing. Underground means more mud and sediment, so the cleaning takes longer.
Water turns yellow or brownish, or smells strange, or tastes different. Sometimes you notice bathroom taps lose spray pressure, meaning sediment has clogged the tap screens.
