How Tank Maintenance Works

Fire Tanks Sydney by Raven Tanks Australia is committed to providing efficient, non-disruptive, and delay-free maintenance services for tanks of all sizes.

Here is what you can expect prior to commencing operations:

We will use an ROV (remotely operated vehicle) drone to inspect your water tank. We will look at the tank's overall condition, identify any areas of concern, and use the footage to develop a plan for any necessary repairs.
We will use the video analysis and imagery from your tank inspection to recommend and plan an ideal repair schedule specific to your system. We will then provide you with a quote for the repairs.
Fire Tanks Sydney by Raven Tanks Australia will provide you with a list of preparations that you need to make before we arrive to conduct repairs and maintenance services on your tank.
We will carry out any necessary repairs, replacements, or reconstructions to your tank and then test it to ensure that it is safe to return to service.

What is The Recommended Frequency for Commercial Tank Maintenance?

Commercial tank owners must have their tanks professionally cleaned and inspected on a regular basis. This is to ensure that the tanks are safe and compliant with regulations. Sediment, surface scum, and microbial growth can build up quickly in poorly maintained tanks, which can contaminate the water and pose a health risk to users.

There are two important requirements commercial tank owners should be aware of: maintenance and inspection frequencies. The frequency of maintenance and inspection will vary depending on the type of tank, its environment, and its usage. However, it is generally recommended to have commercial tanks inspected and maintained at least once a year.

This includes:

Inspections. Commercial tanks must be inspected monthly, bi-annually, and annually. Annual inspections must include a sediment depth inspection to determine if the tank needs extra cleaning. A licensed plumber must also witness the inspection and sign off on the tank's condition, confirming that it meets the minimum standards.
Maintenance. Potable water tanks must be inspected and cleaned one year after installation and then every ten years thereafter. We recommend having potable water tanks cleaned, maintained, and upgraded every two to three years to keep them in optimal working order.

We will use commercial divers, ROVs, or both to inspect and repair components of your tank as needed.

If you are not sure where to start, please contact our maintenance and repairs team today to discuss your specific requirements, schedule an inspection to receive a current condition report, or ask any general questions you have about your ownership obligations.

How ROVs Have Changed Tank Repairs & Maintenance

Advances in technology and the integration of new technologies with traditional tank maintenance equipment are transforming the Australian tank repair industry for the better. The introduction of high-tech remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) has revolutionized the way we plan and carry out potable water tank and fire water system maintenance.

ROVs offer a number of benefits to both our maintenance personnel and our customers, including:

Using ROVs for tank inspections and maintenance can streamline conventional processes by reducing the need for permits and planning. This means that inspections can be completed more quickly, and maintenance procedures can be accelerated, so that your tanks can be returned to full use sooner.
Your tanks can remain in operation while we inspect them using ROVs. This means that there is zero downtime during inspections.
We are revamping our services packages and capabilities to provide our customers with even better maintenance and repair options.
Fire Tanks Sydney by Raven Tanks Australia prioritizes ROV services to make tank inspections safer for everyone involved, including our staff and customers. ROVs eliminate the need for confined space entry, working at heights, and diving, which are all high-risk activities.
