Water Tank Cleaning 101: How We Do It | SV Ramble On

Описание: We originally had an approximately 100 gallon stainless steel water tank located in the bilge forward of the engine. Sadly, it leaked. Instead of trying to get it re-welded, we opted to buy new rotomolded poly tanks. Our overall capacity is slightly less (approximately 80 gallons now), but we plan to get a water maker.

The tanks have been installed for several years, but we really only use them when we leave the dock or the power goes out at the marina. The majority of the time we're connected to the dock water. The area we live in is very rural and the marina is on well water. The water is regularly tested and completely safe to drink, but it tastes like crap and maxes out on the hardness scale.

We used to lug bottled water to the boat every week before we bought the Berkey filter for drinking water. It's taken us a few years to get a good system to deal with the water, but now we think we've got it. Three filters and a water softener for all the water that comes into the boat and the addition of the Berkey filter for drinking water. Even with all of that, our water tanks still get a little dirty.
