Ramadan Drain CleaningWater tank cleaning in Salmi
Water tank cleaning in Salmi is essential because every drop you drink and use passes through the tank first. Salmi is a border area near the Kuwait-Iraq crossing, with a mix of older and newer homes, and every house needs a clean tank.
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
Salmi homes vary in age and size, from older villas to newer flats, each with a tank on the roof or in the basement. Tanks in this border area face intense heat and heavy dust, so sediment builds up faster than in inland zones. When we open the tank, we clean the floor thoroughly and check the ballcock, filter and pipe joints, because rust can appear in the water due to heat and moisture exposure.
Salmi lies in Jahra governorate near the Kuwait-Iraq border crossing, a border zone with diverse residential housing.
Salmi tanks need more frequent cleaning because of dust and extreme heat that affect water quality.

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.
