Provincial Tank Lining and Inspections Inc. - Domestic Hot Water Storage Tank Maintenance

Today's visual case study is on a 6 year old epoxy lined A.O. Smith Domestic Hot Water Storage Tank.

Note the corrosion around the weld seams.

Corrosion around the weld seam and bleeding through the epoxy lining.

Corrosion around the weld seam and the fittings.

Corrosion around the weld seam and manway collar.

Biofilm/Slime found in the tank. Biofilm contributes to a wide variety of infections.

If you have an A.O. Smith Domestic Hot Water Storage Tank with a manway...it should be inspected now to mitigate:

• Unplanned downtimes.
• Large capital expenses associated with repairs/replacement.
• Breeding grounds for waterborne pathogens.

A little bit of preventative maintenance goes a long way. Knowledge is power, educate yourself and protect your assets.

Call Provincial Tank Lining and Inspections for more information and/or to discuss a preventative maintenance plan for the Domestic Hot Water Storage Tanks in your portfolio.
