subject: Maintenance of Water Tanks [print this page] Water tanks are of prime importance as they act as a primary way of storing the water safely and securely.

Make sure all the connections made are up to defined specifications and joined carefully. A single leak occurred at a later stage may include huge investment.
If you're using a concrete water tank or plastic tank, make sure it is properly installed and its reinforcing should be done as per the government regulations. Always use good quality steel frame so that tanks will not loose during strong winds or storms.
Water is not only a requirement but a necessity. Imagine a world without water. No one will survive. It is not possible to get the water wherever it is needed as our natural resources are limited and the speed at which they are depleting is alarming.
