How long do rainwater tanks last?

On average, a rainwater tank can last for 30 years or more. Its lifespan will depend on several factors such as the material, positioning of the tank, water quality and maintenance.

How often should I have my tank cleaned?

Ideally, you should have it cleaned once a year for health and safety reasons. However, your tank may need more frequent cleaning depending on where you live. For example, an area with lots of trees can pollute your tank with dead leaves and insects and may require more frequent cleaning.

Is it safe to drink rainwater?

You can use rainwater for many things except for drinking. Rain can wash contaminants such as bird faeces, insects and dirt into your rainwater tank. We advise you install an appropriate rainwater filtration system. Bevan Plumbing will be happy to assist in helping decide what you require.
