About Us
The Watertank Cleaning Company Pty Ltd originally formed as
Cleanwater Tank Services in 1992 from an original idea that we should
be able to invent a system that can clean a drinking water tank when
its FULL of water instead of when its empty, so that we could still
have water left in the tank after the cleaning is done.
After some thought the name change occurred in 1997 so as to better
familiarise potential clients with the type of specialised service we
provide; ie. the cleaning of water tanks.
Please note that we are cleaning specialists of drinking water
receptacles only and our equipment is used specifically for this
purpose. If necessary the cleaning implements and hoses can be sprayed
and flushed with a solution of Sodium Hypochlorite to kill any bacteria
that may be present on the equipment after completion of a clean that
may have had water that was high in bacteria. We can disinfect the
remaining water to kill bacteria in a clients tank after the cleaning
process if we find that they have had a dead animal in the tank or if
the water had been smelling beforehand.
We can improve poor water quality; ie, smelly, tainted or
discoloured drinking water, and guarantee to remove the build up of
sediment from the floor of your tank even when it's FULL, leaving you
and your family with clean, clear, safe water.
If you do find a dead animal in your full tank of water we can
remove the animal, vacuum the sediment etc. from the floor of your tank
and then add Sodium Hypochlorite to the remaining 3/4 of a tank of
water to disinfect it and kill the bacteria in the remaining water
leaving you with lovely tasting, bacterial free water.
The Watertank Cleaning Company utilises a unique Australian
invention which has been designed so sedimentary and other deposits are
removed from the vessel with no disturbance (clouding) of the water
body and with minimal water loss.
No physical entry to the vessel is required, therefore there is no
possibility of contamination via the operator and the vessel can remain
in service. Our access requirement for concrete lidded tanks is removal
of the concrete manhole cover which we remove prior to starting the
clean. Access to steel lidded tanks is by removal of a sheet of iron
from the easiest place on the roof of the tank if no manhole opening is
present.
The Watertank Cleaning Company can advise on methods and means of
maintaining your tank water free of undesirable taste, odour,
contaminating deposits, algae and harmful bacteria.

"Other services we provide:"
We can repair wall & base cracks in concrete water tanks, and,
organise steel galvanised iron lids to be fitted to open concrete
tanks. We also have a cheaper way of putting a cover on an open tank
using weed mat. We can advise on the type of tank to use on a specific
site & what position to place it in.
Water tanks should be cleaned at least once every 3 years as
recommended by all the individual Australian States Health Departments,
so to keep you and your loved ones healthy give me a call if you think
your tank needs cleaning. Website reference http://enhealth.nphp.gov.au/council/pubs/documents/rainwater_tanks.pdf Go to page 33; "Tank Desludging" and magnify to 150%

Remember
I can clean water tanks when they are FULL and leave you with water. I
can still leave water if they are low, but not as much of course.
