Water storage tanks are essential for many homes, businesses, and industries to have a reliable and constant clean water supply. However, these tanks can deteriorate over time, leading to contamination, leaks, and structural damage. This is where relining your water storage tank comes in. In this article, we will discuss why relining your water storage tank is crucial for protecting your health and investment.

1. Preventing Contamination

One of the most significant reasons to reline your water storage tank is to prevent contamination. Over time, the tank’s interior surface can corrode and develop cracks, leading to bacteria, algae, and other harmful particles contaminating the water supply. Relining the tank with an FDA-approved epoxy coating will create a barrier that prevents these contaminants from seeping into the water.

2. Extending the Tank’s Lifespan

Relining your water storage tank can extend its lifespan by up to 20 years or more. The epoxy coating used to line the tank’s interior is resistant to corrosion, rust, and other forms of deterioration that can occur over time. This means the tank will require less maintenance and repairs, saving you time and money in the long run.

3. Improving Water Quality

Relining your water storage tank can also improve the quality of your water. The epoxy coating used to line the tank’s interior is non-toxic and does not affect the taste or odour of the water. Additionally, the coating creates a smooth surface that prevents the buildup of sediment and other particles in the tank, which can affect the water’s quality.

4. Reducing Water Loss

Leaking water storage tanks can be a major problem, leading to water loss, property damage, and increased water bills. Relining your water storage tank can prevent leaks and reduce water loss by creating a strong, seamless barrier that prevents water from escaping through cracks and holes in the tank’s interior.

5. Saving Money

Relining your water storage tank can save you money in several ways. Firstly, it can reduce the need for costly repairs and maintenance over time. Secondly, it can reduce your water bills by preventing leaks and reducing water loss. Finally, it can prevent contamination and improve water quality, reducing the need for expensive water treatment systems and filters.

6. Protecting Your Health

Contaminated water can pose a serious health risk, causing diarrhea, vomiting, and stomach cramps. Relining your water storage tank can protect your health and your family, employees, or customers by preventing the growth and spread of harmful bacteria and other contaminants.

7. Improves Efficiency

Water storage tanks that are not properly maintained can become inefficient over time. This is because leaks, cracks, and corrosion can cause water to escape, reducing the tank’s capacity to hold water. Relining your tank can improve efficiency by sealing leaks and preventing water loss, ensuring it can hold water to its full capacity. This can help you save on water bills and reduce your environmental footprint.

Conclusion

Relining your water storage tank is essential for protecting your health and investment. It can prevent contamination, extend the tank’s lifespan, improve water quality, reduce water loss, save money, and protect your health.
