Traditionally these were galvanised iron but nowadays most are plastic (polyethylene). You can check if yours meets this standard by looking for the relevant Water Regs UK Approved Product logo.

Water Tank Maintenance

Maintaining your water tank with regular maintenance helps guarantee its optimal performance. It should be emptied, topped up and cleaned every couple of months to prevent bacteria growth inside, plus it should be inspected by a plumber to make sure there are no damages or cracks present.

Water Tank Noise

If your tank is making a loud banging sound, it could be an indication that it needs replacing. This issue is common with older tanks and may be due to rust, clogged drains or a leaky pipe.

Though it may appear to be a minor inconvenience, an unchecked noisy tank could indicate water is leaking from its bottom or sides and cause significant property damage if left unchecked.

Another common error is connecting hot and cold taps to a tank instead of to the mains supply. Doing this can cause excessive water to run down the sink, potentially leading to flooding in bathrooms.

Avoid this issue by verifying that all taps are connected directly to your hot and cold water supplies. Place your thumb over the tap outlet, and if you can hold back all of the water with it, chances are it's supplied from within your tank rather than from mains supply.

A pool of water around the base of your water tank is an indication that it needs replacing, especially if you have a large family or use it to wash laundry; otherwise, bacteria and other issues could develop quickly. If left unchecked, bacteria and other issues could spread rapidly throughout your facility.

Water Tanks for Homes

When purchasing a bath water tank for your home, it is essential that the size isn't too large, has an attached cover and is constructed of approved material. Doing this will prevent the tank from becoming susceptible to rust or corrosion and ultimately impacting the quality of water in your house.
