Relined Hot Water Storage Tank

Hot Water Storage Tank - Reline

 

Relined Hot Water Storage Tank

This image represents how the inside of your large Domestic Hot Water Storage Tank should look.  This tank was freshly relined with Pre-Krete T61.  Pre-Krete T61 is a CSA/NSF approved product for use in potable water and is the best product for the inside of a DHWST.  The Pre-Krete T61 lining will last 12-15 years before the tank should be relined.

Also note the new anodes.  While Pre-Krete T61 protects the tank from corrosion, the anodes sacrifice themselves to protect all the unlined areas such as the inlets and outlets.  Anodes should be replace every 1-3 years depending on water quality.  Note:  If your tank is going to leak, it's more than likely going to be around the inlets or outlets.  Anode replacement is vital!

So, by relining your tank every 12-15 years and replacing your anodes every 1-3 years, your tank could outlast the building.

Remember, just one emergency situation will cost you more than 15 years of proper preventative maintenance!
