Water When You Need It
A water tank system is more than just the tank sitting there. If the base shifts, fittings wear out or the pump starts struggling, you’ll notice it pretty quickly, either through poor pressure, leaks or water not getting where it should.
We handle repairs as well as new installs, fixing issues properly instead of patching around them. That might be replacing worn components, sorting out faulty connections or getting a pump back up to standard so the system works the way it’s meant to.
Whether you’re dealing with a fault or planning an upgrade, we focus on practical fixes that keep your tank system running reliably. Get in touch with the experienced team at Medowie Plumbing & Gas when you’re ready to get it sorted.
FAQ
Everything You Need To Know
What maintenance does a water tank require?
Water tanks require periodic inspection to ensure they remain clean and structurally sound. This includes checking for debris build-up in gutters and inlet screens, inspecting the tank for cracks or leaks and ensuring overflow outlets are clear. If the system includes a pump, connections and fittings should also be checked for wear. Occasional cleaning may be needed to remove sediment that settles at the bottom over time, particularly in high-debris areas.
Why is my water tank pump not working properly?
A water tank pump may fail due to electrical issues, blocked filters, air leaks in suction lines or worn internal components. Low water levels inside the tank can also cause the pump to lose prime and stop functioning correctly. Inconsistent pressure or unusual noises may indicate internal wear. A professional assessment can determine whether the issue requires adjustment, repair or full replacement.
How long does a water tank typically last?
The lifespan of a water tank depends on the material, installation quality and environmental conditions. Polyethylene tanks commonly last 15 to 20 years or more, while steel tanks may vary depending on protective coatings and maintenance. Regular inspections and proper installation contribute to longevity. Pumps and fittings may require replacement earlier than the tank itself due to mechanical wear.
