Water Quality Management
Once the water is in your tank, it’s important to keep an eye on the cleanliness and quality. A wide range of factors can affect the quality of stored rainwater including insects, bacteria, heat, light penetration and a gradual build up of debris. These are all factors you can control. The good news is that routine tank maintenance doesn’t have to be a headache.
Sludge is a build-up of a variety of small particles at the bottom of a tank, including vegetation debris, bird or animal deposits from your water catchment area, air-borne pollution or materials from the roof and gutter such as flaking paint and iron. If it’s not removed, sludge can eventually build-up and block the tank water outlet or even be drawn out through the outlet, tainting the water and damaging the pump or toilet system.
