Reasons to Keep Your Water Tank Clean
There are several reasons why keeping your water tank clean is of utmost importance. While the exterior appearance may seem fine, it does not guarantee the interior is free from potential hazards. By having your tank professionally cleaned, you ensure:
- No dead animals lurking inside the tank, preventing water contamination
- Sludge does not accumulate at the bottom of the tank, which can harbour harmful bacteria
- The water remains clean and free from bugs
- No underlying issues with the tank exist that could lead to leaks or water contamination
The above is especially critical using rainwater for your property’s water supply, as contaminants from the roof and gutters can quickly enter the tank
Our 5-Step Cleaning Process
At CST Water, we follow a rigorous 5-step cleaning process to ensure the highest standards:
- 1. We empty the tank by removing the water, creating an empty space for cleaning.
- 2. We vacuum the walls and bottom of the tank, removing any sludge or dirt.
- 3. We perform a thorough water blasting of the tank walls to ensure comprehensive cleaning.
- 4. We repeat the vacuuming process to eliminate any remaining debris from the tank.
- 5. We sanitise the tank with chlorine, effectively disinfecting it.
Alternatively, if you wish to retain the water in the tank, we can store 10,000 litres in a temporary bladder and refilter it back into the tank at an additional cost. Additionally, we offer the option of delivering 13,000 litres of potable water on the same day.

What Are the Signs That My Water Tank Needs Cleaning?
- Discolored water: Water may appear cloudy, brown, or green.
- Strange taste or odor: Water may taste or smell unpleasant.

Does My Water Tank Need to Be Empty for Cleaning?

How Often Should I Clean My Water Tank?
It’s recommended to clean your water tank at least once a year to maintain water quality and safety. However, if you notice any changes in your water’s taste, smell, or appearance, it’s advisable to schedule a cleaning sooner.
Do You Use the Same Truck for Cleaning My Water Tank, as You Do My Septic Tank?
No, we use separate trucks and hoses for water tank and septic tank cleaning. This ensures there’s absolutely no risk of cross-contamination between the two services.
How Long Does the Cleaning Process Take?
The duration of the cleaning process varies depending on the size of the tank and the extent of the buildup. However, most cleaning jobs can be completed within an hour.
How Can I Ensure the Cleanliness of Tanks Between Professional Cleanings?
To maintain tank cleanliness between professional cleanings, follow these tips:
- Regular Inspection: Periodically inspect the tank for debris, sediment, etc
- Prevent External Contamination:
- Keep the area surrounding the tank clean and free of debris.
- Regularly check and clean the tank’s inlet and outlet points.
- Ensure the quality of water entering the tank.
- Filter Maintenance:
- Regularly clean or replace filters as recommended by the manufacturer.

Does My Water Tank Need Cleaning if I Have a Filter?
