Water Storage Tanks

Water storage tanks are an essential component of any water distribution system. They store large volumes of water, which can be distributed to households, industries, and businesses. Over time, these tanks can develop issues that can affect their functionality.

One of the most common problems that water storage tanks face is corrosion. Corrosion can lead to leaks, which can cause severe damage to the system. In such cases, relining the water storage tank is the best solution.

In this article, we will discuss the top five reasons to consider relining your water storage tank.

1. Time-Efficient

Relining your water storage tank is a time-efficient solution. When compared to conventional methods, such as sandblasting and recoating, relining takes less time. In most cases, the process can be completed within a few days, depending on the size of the tank. This means that you will not have to shut down your water distribution system for an extended period, which can cause inconvenience to your customers.

2. Reduced Maintenance

Relining your water storage tank can reduce the need for maintenance. Over time, corrosion can cause leaks in the tank, which can lead to frequent repairs. By relining the tank, you can prevent leaks from occurring, reducing the need for maintenance. This can save you time and money in the long run.

3. Resistance to Bacteria

Relining your water storage tank can provide resistance to bacteria. Over time, bacteria can grow in the tank, contaminating the water. This can lead to health issues for your customers. By relining the tank, you can prevent bacteria from growing in the tank, which can ensure that your customers receive clean and safe water.

4. Cost-Efficient

Relining your water storage tank is a cost-efficient solution. When compared to conventional methods, such as sandblasting and recoating, relining is less expensive. In most cases, it is also less expensive than replacing the tank. This means you can save money while ensuring your water distribution system is functioning correctly.

5. Protection Against Corrosion

Relining your water storage tank can provide protection against corrosion. Over time, corrosion can cause leaks in the tank, leading to severe damage to the system. By relining the tank, you can prevent corrosion from occurring, which can extend the life of the tank. This can save you money in the long run, as you will not have to replace the tank as frequently.

6. Environmental Sustainability

Relining your water storage tank can also contribute to environmental sustainability. By preventing leaks and reducing the need for frequent repairs and replacements, relining can help reduce the amount of waste generated by the water distribution system. This can minimize the impact on the environment and promote sustainability.

Additionally, some relining materials are eco-friendly and can be recycled, further reducing the environmental impact. By considering relining your water storage tank, you are not only protecting your water distribution system but also contributing to a more sustainable future.

Final Thoughts

Relining your water storage tank is a time-efficient, cost-efficient, and effective solution for maintaining your water distribution system. It can reduce the need for maintenance, prevent leaks, provide resistance to bacteria, and protect against corrosion.

If you are experiencing issues with your water storage tank, consider relining it. It can save you time and money while ensuring you receive clean and safe water.
