it's being long I wash my tank so I decided to climb the scaffold to observe the condition of the inside of my tank and saw a lot of sand probably from the borehole so I decided to pack the sand and wash everywhere. Make una dey try wash una own once once
It's better to get an expert to do this for you wink

The stress, danger associated with it and accompanied risk of causing another plumbing problem makes it a no-no for non professionals.

How you take park the water commot??
Re: Before And After Washing My Geepee Tank by OmoNla99: 1:43pm On May 30, 2024
The comment I was looking for. I remembered having a similar issue about 8 years ago. I had to put a filter right after my well to filter the water going into the tank and also put another filter to the one going into the house. The filter from the well is regularly changed (I think every month) while the one is changed when I see its condition.

Funny.

Na why we no dey progress for this country. We attack the symptoms instead of the underlying condition.

This tank is going to remain unwashed for another 3 or 4 years again.

Filter and treat the water upstream of the tank. And regular maintain the filtration/treatment unit. Not all these once-in-a-leap-year wash

I need GP tank for to buy.500L..Nsukka
Re: Before And After Washing My Geepee Tank by udemzyudex(m): 1:47pm On May 30, 2024
This is direct from the borehole, it's normal especially during raining season.

You'll have to use filter and other water treatment if you don't want to get something like this.

This is another job opportunity. No one have time to clean but can pay any amount to get their tanks washed

because you wash your tank once, you are now giving advice. what makes you think he people you are giving advice have not been washing their tanks? how many people put washing their tanks on social media like it is something that has never been done before?

Sadly It will still go back to the way it was
So because of that he should never wash it.

Re: Before And After Washing My Geepee Tank by Love800(m): 2:09pm On May 30, 2024
You are saying, we should not be washing our tanks?

Re: Before And After Washing My Geepee Tank by Temidayo9(m): 2:12pm On May 30, 2024
This is good, but ensure you wash inside your well/ borehole where the water come from, untill then, you never done anything
Re: Before And After Washing My Geepee Tank by Love800(m): 2:12pm On May 30, 2024
Using a tank-stand and putting a tank on the roof top of the house, which is more safe?

I moved out of my former compound because the landlord insisted "no body must enter and wash the gp tank".

Because Yorubas are too diabolic
Perhaps he’s scared for your safety when trying to do it…. Sometimes some people care for you but your Igbo hatred won’t let you know the true intention

It depends on how you construct your building. However, it is better to have the two at the same time if you are financially capable so as to serve you better
Re: Before And After Washing My Geepee Tank by yommen: 2:28pm On May 30, 2024
This one no dirty na. See the one for my compound. I have been living in the place(rented) for just over 2 years. There has always been dirt in the water when newly pumped One day, wifey complained that the water is smelling so we stopped using it to cook. We have been drinking sachet water. Washing it myself might just be too risky cos of the height and closeness to fence. So I asked other 2 tennants to lets contribute and give plumber money to wash. One of them was reluctant until I decided to climb the height myself to even see what was there.

Black tank prevents growth of algae. You need to buy new black tank.

Sunlight makes algae to grow. Maybe, the color of the tank has started fading.
