5000L Tank Clean, Chlorination & Booster Service – Birmingham Residential Block
Maintaining clean, safe water storage is essential for residential buildings. NT Cloke Pumps & Water recently attended a Birmingham apartment block to carry out a full clean and chlorination of a 5,000-litre cold water storage tank, alongside a comprehensive service of the site’s booster set.
The project formed part of the building’s ongoing water hygiene and maintenance programme, helping to ensure residents continue to receive clean, safe water while reducing the risk of contamination and system issues.
The Challenge
Cold water storage tanks can gradually accumulate sediment, debris and biological contamination over time. If left unchecked, this can impact water quality and increase the risk of bacteria developing within the system.
Alongside the tank maintenance, the site’s booster set also required inspection and servicing to ensure consistent water pressure throughout the building.
The client required a complete solution that would improve water hygiene, maintain compliance and verify the performance of the booster equipment serving the property.
Our Solution
Our engineers attended site and carried out a full inspection of the water storage and booster system before commencing works.
The tank was drained, cleaned and disinfected in accordance with recognised water hygiene procedures before being refilled and returned to service.
At the same time, the booster set underwent a thorough service and performance check to ensure all components were operating correctly.
Scope of Works
- Full clean of 5,000-litre cold water storage tank
- Internal inspection before and after cleaning
- Chlorination and disinfection of tank
- Removal of sediment and contaminants
- Booster set inspection and service
- Expansion vessel pressure checks
- Operational testing and performance verification
- System recommissioning
The Results
Following completion of the works, the tank was returned to service clean, disinfected and ready for continued operation.
The booster set was fully serviced and verified as operating correctly, helping to ensure reliable water pressure throughout the residential block.
Project Outcomes
✔ Clean and disinfected water storage tank
✔ Improved water hygiene and water quality
✔ Reduced risk of Legionella and bacterial contamination
✔ Fully serviced booster system
✔ Increased reliability and operational confidence
✔ Continued compliance with water hygiene best practices
Why Regular Tank Cleaning Matters
Many building owners and facilities managers only think about water tanks when a problem occurs. However, regular cleaning and chlorination are vital preventative maintenance measures.
Routine tank cleaning helps:
- Maintain water quality
- Reduce the risk of Legionella bacteria
- Remove sediment and debris build-up
- Extend the life of associated equipment
- Support compliance with water hygiene responsibilities
- Protect building occupants and residents
Combined with regular booster set servicing, planned maintenance helps avoid unexpected failures and costly emergency call-outs.
