Inside the tank
What builds up inside your tank
Sediment and sludge
Fine grit settles into a thick layer on the tank floor and gets drawn into outlets and pumps.
Leaves and organic debris
Anything that washes off the roof and past the inlet screen breaks down inside the tank.
Bacterial growth
Warm, still water with organic matter in it is exactly what bacteria need to multiply.
Mineral deposits
Deposits build up on walls, fittings and screens, reducing capacity and flow.
Blockages in outlets and pumps
Debris drawn through the outlet is the most common cause of pump strain and failure.
