Despite being a coastal city, the Gold Coast is a thriving place with a half million population. In a place like this, there is always a possibility for fires to occur. And when this happens, people’s lives are in terrible danger. While city fires may rarely happen, bush fires are a real threat, and this is why fire tanks are crucial in every business establishment. We here at ATM Tanks would like to share with you how to keep your fire tanks in tip-top shape. Your tank needs regular inspection to ensure that it is in working condition. The last thing you want is for your sprinklers and fire system to fail at the time you need it.
The Fire Tank Inspection
If you have a fire tank, it is likely that you have a sprinkler system in place. Generally speaking, sprinkler and fire tank systems are done with high standards, but fire tank inspections on the Gold Coast must be a regular activity. Apart from the tank itself, we at ATM can check the pumps and the flow rate to ensure that the tank is in proper order.
We check for any signs of corrosion, and we will immediately recommend what needs to be done to fix it. Corrosion can eventually lead to leaks. If the damage gets bigger, you will spend more time and money to get it fixed. At some point, the walls of fire tanks can also get thin. We at ATM Tanks have the capacity to inspect if this is happening, and also fix the problem by adding a better lining inside the tank.
Fire Tank Maintenance
As we do fire tank inspections on the Gold Coast, we stress on the importance of taking appropriate steps so we can identify potential failure points. While many tanks can serve you well over for ten years, they are subject to wear and tear. There is pressure inside and it is one of the leading causes of perforations and leaks.
Here are some the maintenance that we offer:
- Changing the liners
- Replacing the roof
- Coating the outside
- Replacement of corroded metal
We have a lot of industrial grade materials made for fire tanks. Tanks should be made with materials that are apt for their purpose. An industrial tank for a manufacturing company does not have the same liners and components as water tanks. Once we provide an offer for a solution, we include these materials in the quotation to ensure that you understand why they these materials are needed.
Multiple Options for Fire Tank Repairs
At ATM Tanks, we want to fix tanks with as little trouble as possible. We use robots that can repair the tanks form the inside, or welders who can dive inside it. It is only in worst cases that we would ask you to drain the tank. In a case like this, the repair process can take hours, but we will only recommend this if it is necessary. As we drain the water, we can remove the debris and sediment that accumulated, and then we can begin repair work.
