Water can leave the mains clean and still fail at the tap, and the tank is where that is decided.
Overview
Drinking water tanks in buildings and establishments are the whole subject of this 21-chapter guideline with three annexes. Tanks are classified by location, material of construction and nature of use, general health requirements and the source-water and sampling rules are fixed, and each type is then specified in detail with its own capacity calculation method.
The second half is operational: when a tank shall be cleaned, with what equipment and chemicals, how the chlorine solution is prepared and dosed, and how inspection, sampling, violations and penalties are handled. It is one reference document, editable throughout.
What it covers
- Classification of tanks by location, material of construction and nature of use
- Ground tanks: siting, waterproofing, structural design, fittings and periodic maintenance, with overhead and detached tanks and capacity calculation
- When a tank shall be cleaned, and the cleaning procedures for new, periodic and contaminated tanks
- Preparing the chlorine solution, disinfection dosing calculations, and water tanker volume calculation and load disinfection
- Health of operatives, safety during tank work and requirements for cleaning companies, with annexes of parameters, chlorine dosing tables and a cleaning and disinfection certificate
Who it's for
Building owners and facility managers, water tank cleaning companies, municipal health inspectors, and contractors who design, install or maintain drinking water storage. A health inspection, a tender asking for a written method, or a complaint from a resident sends someone looking for this, and it leaves them with dosing tables, staged procedures and a certificate to issue after each clean.
