Water Tank Cleaning FAQs

For potable water tanks, annual or biennial cleaning and disinfection are generally recommended. Rainwater harvesting tanks may require more frequent cleaning (every 1-3 years) depending on debris accumulation and usage. Non-potable tanks for irrigation or other uses can typically be cleaned less often, perhaps every 3-5 years. We can assess your tank and advise on the best schedule.

Yes, absolutely. Alpha Septic Services uses industry-standard procedures and NSF-certified (National Sanitation Foundation) disinfectants specifically approved for potable water systems. We thoroughly rinse the tank after cleaning and disinfection to ensure no harmful residues remain.

It is helpful if the tank is as low as possible, but you do not need to completely empty it. Our powerful pumps can remove the remaining water and accumulated sediment during the cleaning process. We minimize water waste and work efficiently to get your tank back in service quickly.
