Professional Water Tank Cleaning Services
Professional tank cleaning removes contaminants that routine maintenance cannot eliminate. Raven American Tanks provides water tank cleaning services for commercial and industrial storage systems, helping improve water quality, protect tank components, and maintain efficient operation.
Sediment and Sludge Removal
We remove accumulated sediment, sludge, and debris from the tank floor to restore storage capacity and improve water quality.
Internal Tank Cleaning
Our team cleans internal walls, floors, and structural surfaces to remove biofilm, scale, and other contaminants.
Pipework and Component Cleaning
We clean internal pipework, valves, and fittings to improve water flow and support reliable system performance.
Potable Water Tank Cleaning
We perform hygienic cleaning for potable water tanks using methods that help maintain safe water storage conditions.
Cleaning Preparation for Maintenance and Repairs
Tank cleaning prepares the storage system for maintenance, inspections, protective coating work, and repair services.
Our experience with different tank systems allows us to adapt our tank cleaning services to meet the needs of each facility.
Sediment and Sludge Removal ROV
Sediment and sludge naturally accumulate at the bottom of water tanks, reducing storage capacity and affecting water quality. Raven American Tanks provides safe and effective removal services for commercial and industrial tanks using the most suitable cleaning method. For tanks requiring internal entry, our trained technicians perform the work through confined space services while following strict safety procedures.
Where entry is unnecessary, we remove sediment using ROV tank inspection technology, allowing cleaning without draining the tank. Both methods help improve tank performance while supporting long-term water tank maintenance.
Cleaning of Internal Tank Components
Keeping internal components clean helps maintain water quality and supports reliable tank operation. Raven American Tanks cleans critical tank components to remove sediment, mineral buildup, and biological contamination that can affect system performance.
- Cleaning inlet and outlet pipework to improve water flow.
- Removing buildup from valves and internal fittings.
- Cleaning access hatches, covers, and inspection openings.
- Clearing vents and protective screens to maintain proper airflow.
- Cleaning overflow pipes and drainage systems.
- Removing debris from internal supports and structural components.
- Cleaning level sensors, floats, and monitoring equipment where applicable.
Routine component cleaning improves system efficiency and helps reduce future maintenance and repair requirements.
MIC Corrosion Prevention and Control
Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion (MIC) can damage water tanks by accelerating corrosion beneath biofilm and bacterial deposits. Regular cleaning and maintenance help remove conditions that allow microorganisms to develop inside the tank. Raven American Tanks identifies areas at risk and performs cleaning to reduce biological contamination before serious damage occurs.
Preventing MIC extends the service life of tank components and lowers long-term repair costs. For tanks requiring extensive restoration after corrosion damage, explore our water tank refurbishment services.

FAQ
What is included in water tank maintenance?
Water tank maintenance typically includes inspections, component servicing, sediment removal, corrosion prevention, valve maintenance, roof checks, and cleaning. Regular maintenance helps extend tank life and improve system performance.
How often should a water tank be cleaned?
Cleaning frequency depends on the tank type, water quality, and operating conditions. Most commercial and industrial tanks benefit from scheduled cleaning to remove sediment, sludge, and biological buildup.
Why is industrial tank cleaning important?
Industrial tank cleaning removes contaminants that reduce storage capacity and affect water quality. It also helps prevent corrosion, equipment damage, and unexpected maintenance issues.
Can tank cleaning be completed without draining the tank?
Yes. In some cases, sediment can be removed using ROV technology without taking the tank out of service. The appropriate cleaning method depends on the tank condition and maintenance requirements.
What is MIC corrosion in water tanks?
MIC, or Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion, is caused by microorganisms that accelerate corrosion beneath biofilm. Regular cleaning and maintenance help reduce the conditions that promote MIC.
