There may be many reasons why you would need water storage tank replacement, the most common being an antiquated water tank that is no longer safe to use. Many older houses still have upstairs taps connected to the cold water storage tank in the attic, deeming the water unsafe to drink (in houses with old cold water tanks, you should only drink water from taps that are connected to the mains). This can be because of the material that the tank is made of (many older water storage tanks were manufactured using galvanised iron, which corrodes easily and leads to rust and bits of metal falling into the water); or from poorly fitting covers, which can lead to dust, insects, and rodent faeces polluting the water.
Luckily, water storage tanks have to reach certain standards these days and are made from materials that comply with industry standards and regulations. They are manufactured using approved plastic, and help safeguard against any water pollution, as well as flooding, and can also help increase your cold water supply as well as being more economical. Not every house, however, has been updated with the new model of water storage tank, which is imperative if you want to keep your cold water supply clean. Remember, this is usually the water you clean your teeth with.
