At Mamba Tanks, we emphasize the importance of maintaining the functionality of plumbing systems of water storage tanks. We understand the benefits, best practices, key considerations, and strategies for extending the lifespan of your water tank by observing the right replacement for your water tank at the right time and through the correct procedure.

The Significance of Water Tank Replacement
• Reliability: Old and worn-out cold water storage tanks can compromise efficiency significantly. Leaks and corrosion can negatively impact water quality, safety, and system performance. Ensuring a reliable and efficient water supply involves implementing an effective cleaning and maintenance regime and strategic investment in a water tank replacement.
• Regulatory Compliance: Upgrading to our compliant Glass Reinforced Plastic (GRP) water storage solutions aligns operations with regulatory standards.
• Monetary Value: Despite the initial investment, the long-term benefits of water tank replacement outweigh the costs. GRP cold water storage tanks, known for durability and energy efficiency, lead to lower maintenance expenses and reduced operational costs.

Key Considerations For A Replacement Water Tank
1. Consumption Analysis: Understanding water consumption patterns and demand fluctuations is crucial for commercial, industrial, or residential operations. Collaborate with consultants to determine the optimal tank capacity aligned with operational needs and growth projections. Observing water tank capacity, reflecting water consumption patterns, are essential for appropriately sizing the water tank replacement.
2. Tank Material: Opting for suitable materials like Mamba Tank’s GRP water tanks ensures longevity and reliability. Tailor material choices to the specific requirements of your industry.
3. Intelligent Systems: Incorporate the latest advancements in water storage technology, including intelligent monitoring systems and leak detection, to enhance overall infrastructure efficiency.

When To Replace Your Water Storage Tank
The lifespan of your water storage tank depends on a lot of factors. Our GRP water storage tanks generally last between 15 and 20 years. However, several signs indicate it might be time for a replacement sooner. Find a few signs listed below:
• Visible cracks or dents – Check for cracks or dents on the tank on the exterior or interior. This is a strong indicator that the tank is deteriorating. Unlike steel tanks, our Plastic water storage tanks are corrosion-resistant.
• Leaks or water damage – Any signs of leaks or water pooling around the tank suggest structural failure.
• Reduced water quality: Noticeable changes in water colour, taste, or smell can signal contamination due to a failing tank. This is increasingly important for water tanks used for potable (drinking) water.
• Age of the tank: Even if there are no obvious issues, if your tank is approaching or has surpassed 20 years, it’s wise to consider a replacement to avoid unexpected failures and disruptions to crucial systems.
