How Does Regular Water Tank Cleaning in Dubai Protect Your Health and Water Quality?
Water Tank Cleaning in Dubai 27 October 25
Introduction
Water is one of the jewels of Dubai, but clean tap water isn't always pure, it starts with the tank. Even the most leak-free water tanks will ultimately have bacteria, algae, sediment, and rust, all contaminants that will ruin the quality and purity of water.
Professional water tank cleaning and disinfection in Dubai isn't a luxury, though; it's a necessity.
At Pluspoint Cleaning, we are Dubai Municipality-approved service providers, certified to make your water 100% safe for drinking, cooking, bathing, and business.
Why Water Tank Cleaning and Disinfection Is Important in Dubai
Dubai's hot, humid climate and frequent dust storms create the ideal conditions for the growth of microbes and contamination of water tanks.
Although your tank might look clean on the outside, it could harbor:
- City water supply pipe sand and sediment.
- Algae and biofilm in the inner tank walls.
- Rusty material from rusty pipes.
- Pathogenic bacteria such as E. coli or Legionella.
Such impurities, if not cleaned and disinfected regularly, might result in odorous water, reduced water pressure, or even disease.
Dubai Municipality mandates tanks in all commercial and residential buildings to be free of bacterial contamination, something Pluspoint Cleaning adheres to strictly.
Why Cleaning and Disinfection Aren't the Same
These two activities go hand in hand, but they are distinct processes, and both are equally important.
Cleaning is the actual removal of visible dirt, sludge, and debris through the use of mechanical scrubbing and flushing.
Disinfection kills unseen microbes, including bacteria, viruses, and fungi, with non-toxic food-grade disinfectants.
We undertake both processes at Pluspoint Cleaning in order to attain total water purity. Cleaning eliminates physical impurities, whereas disinfection attains microbiological purity.
Step-by-Step Procedure of Water Tank Cleaning and Disinfection
We operate under Dubai Municipality's Health & Safety Regulations in our process in order to make all tanks potable water compliant.
1. Preliminary Inspection
We start by examining the tank condition for contamination, cracks, leaks, sedimentation, and dirty surfaces.
2. Water Draining
Emptying of the tank safely without water loss or structural compromise through submersible pumps.
3. Mechanical Scrubbing
Manual scrubbing of the ceiling, walls, and tank bottom to remove sludge, algae, and scale.
4. High-Pressure Jet Cleaning
Residue cleaning and surface scrubbing in depth by high-pressure water jetting.
5. Disinfection Process
We employ eco-friendly disinfectants that kill viruses and bacteria completely without any toxic chemical residue left behind.
6. Rinsing & Drying
Repeated washing ensures complete cleaning chemical removal with soft drying thereafter.
7. Final Inspection & Certification
Final inspection ensures the water tank is hygienically clean to Dubai Municipality standard. A digital service report and conformity certificate are issued to customers for documentation.
