WATER TANK HYGIENE
Treatment of domestic tanks is made difficult because of the many variables, and the way they can change from day to day. GeoSIL 150 is designed to simplify this process, and give you water that is clean and safe with the minimum of effort. Contamination in a water tank can infect the plumbing system of a dwelling, and infections like Legionella can be passed on, not only through the drinking water, but through baths and showers as well. An effective, affordable method of treating tanks therefore relies a lot on common sense and the use of an effective treatment program. Effective treatment therefore usually requires a number of steps to be followed to provide safe, fresh, healthy water, free of the dangerous inhabitants we wish to avoid. Treatment should also be carried out at regular intervals to ensure ongoing protection.
WHEN TO TREAT THE TANK
Depending on usage, GeoSIL 150 has been shown to be effective in tanks for up to 28 days, or more, so it is recommended that a regular monthly dosing programme be followed for most domestic rainwater storage systems. In premises used as Lodges, Farmstays, Cafes, Camping grounds, Schools, etc, or anywhere visitors regularly use the water, is more important that a regular monthly treatment is applied, as these people will be the least tolerant of contaminants in the water. At other times, dosing can be carried out as often as required, but the following are some of the times you should consider treatment;
- If unpleasant tastes or odours develop in the water
- If deposits of bird or animal waste are found on the roof or in guttering.
- If dead animals or birds are found on the roof, in gutters, or even in the tank.
- If the water tank has not been used for some period of time (Baches, trampers or musterers huts, boats, caravans etc.)
- If contaminated water has been allowed into the system.
- Anytime members of the household or visitors display medical problems.
- After every 28 days of normal use.
- Anytime you think it needs it.
