Ramadan Drain CleaningWater tank cleaning in Siddiq
Water tank cleaning in Siddiq becomes necessary because every drop you drink and use passes through the tank first. Siddiq is a dense residential district near Siddiq Co-op, with a mix of flats and villas using overhead or ground tanks.
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
The area has overhead tanks on rooftops and some ground or cupboard tanks due to how houses are laid out differently. Siddiq's roofs and stairwells are often tight, so we use light gear and lower water in small drums instead of a full tanker. Sediment and algae that build up in the tank floor cause smell and cloudiness, especially in older tanks never cleaned before, and Siddiq families often have young children drinking straight from the tap.
Siddiq is a dense residential district in Hawalli governorate, close to Siddiq Co-op, with a mix of overhead and ground tanks.
Siddiq tanks need cleaning every two years instead of three because of tap water quality from the distribution network and the heat.

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 Siddiq
Yes, ground tanks often need cleaning more because they are cool and dark, which encourages algae. We open the cover carefully, suction the silt from the floor, and rinse the walls with clean water.
Water comes out cloudy or tastes and smells odd, or the day after refilling you find it cloudy again. That means sediment on the floor was not cleaned or the tank is old and the metal walls are reacting with the water.
