WATER STORAGE TANK INSPECTION AND TESTING

Commercial Water Tank Condition Survey

Water tank inspections are essential for assessing the condition, cleanliness, and compliance of cold water storage systems in commercial, residential and public buildings. Over time, tanks can suffer from corrosion, scale, bacterial growth, or structural damage—any of which may affect water quality and safety.

Inspections are a critical part of Legionella risk management and are recommended under ACoP L8, HSG274 Part 2, and BS 8558.

A comprehensive inspection involves:

Assessing internal and external tank condition
Checking for corrosion, scale, sediment and biofilm
Inspecting pipework, screens, insulation and seals
Reviewing accessibility and compliance with current regulations
Photographing and reporting any defects or risks

Why Regular Inspections are Important

Without regular inspections, hidden risks within water tanks can go unnoticed—potentially leading to health hazards, non-compliance, or costly remedial works. Scheduled inspections help ensure your system remains clean, compliant, and functioning efficiently.
