The Importance of Good Water Quality

We have learned to test the water quality at home in the previous month’s blog here: Afraid of Water Pollution? Learn to test water quality At Your Home

Now you know how to test the quality of water and do it conveniently at home. But why is it required? Have you wondered what is the importance of good water quality? Let us find out.

The water that we consume is directly proportional to good health. Bad water or contaminated water is bad for our health and is the primary reason behind many health problems. Good quality water is not only important for us humans but also good for home appliances that we use on an everyday basis as well. Apart from human uses, its quality is equally important to animals and plants as well. Our surroundings and the environment suffers drastically when the quality of water is low.

What exactly is the water quality? Water quality refers to the chemical, physical, biological, radiological and aesthetic(smell and appearance) characteristics of water. Water has many different uses such as supplying drinking water, recreation uses(swimming, boating, parks etc.), industrial processes, irrigation, navigation, shipping, wildlife habitats, protection of aquatic ecosystems, production of edible fish, shellfish and crustaceans, scientific study and education etc. Therefore, you can understand how strongly contaminated water can affect our surroundings and environment. In addition, the commercial and recreation value of water sources might diminish as well.

How does water become contaminated? The hydrological cycle moves water from the air to the earth and this process repeats. It acts as a natural solvent that dissolves everything it touches. Therefore, water is never pure and it contains contaminants such as bacteria, wastewater, animal waste, chemicals, detergents, fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, air pollution, sulfur from smokestack, lead from pipe solder, hard minerals such as iron, magnesium, calcium, and other minerals such as arsenic, limestone and many more.

A water storage tank that stores water on a regular basis to meet all our water storage needs daily does not remain unaffected too. A water storage tank goes through a lot such as changing climatic conditions, dust, dirt, etc. Therefore, it is important to use the best quality plastic water storage tank in India and clean the tank on a regular basis. The above-mentioned contaminants can affect the quality of water inside the water storage tanks as well. Therefore, take care of water by using a good domestic and commercial water storage tank and maintain its quality.

Let's learn to conserve water while doing laundry. Save Water!

In the previous month’s blog, we focussed on some water saving tips in the garden.

Water saving is not limited or restricted to a single area. In fact, we can save a large amount of water while doing the laundry as well. Let us follow these simple tips and save water as much as we can. Let us get started.

Reuse towels:

The bath towels that we use every day does not need to be washed every day. Instead, we can hang it after using it in the sun outside to dry. The same towel can be easily used for a couple of times without actually washing it.

Use energy saver washing machines:

There are many energy saver machines available in the market. When you go to buy a washing machine, do check for this feature. These machines use less water and less energy with the help of advanced technology.

Use machine when fully loaded:

Do not run the machine for a small pile of dirty clothes. Keep it aside and let a bigger pile build up to be washed it all together. It does not make sense to wash fewer clothes and make the machine run again and again. This way both water and energy will be saved.

Wear clothes more than once if not dirty:

Some clothes can be easily worn twice or more without actually washing it every time you wear it. For example, jeans or a sweat jacket. These clothes can be hanged to dry under the sun and can be worn again.

Use less hot water and more cold water:

Turning cold water into hot water consumes a lot of energy and water gets wasted too. So, use water that is available – warm or cold and save on water energy costs.

Pre-treat stains before washing:

Some bad stains need to be treated before washing them with a stain remover using hands or a brush. In the first wash itself these stains will come out and you need not wash the same clothes again and waste water unnecessarily.

Check for leaks at regular intervals:

The fittings and connections might leak over time. It needs to be checked at regular intervals to fix and repair any such leaks.

Collect rain and grey water:

Start collecting rainwater and grey water as these can be used to wash the stairs or cars or any such things outside the home. It can also be used to water the plants.

So, start saving while doing laundry. Penguin Tank, a renowned plastic water storage tank manufacturer highly recommends the same.

Why The Color of a Water Storage Tank Makes a Big Difference?

There are many considerations for buying a water storage tank. Some of them include the need, size, type, material, longevity, and also the color. Aesthetics play an obvious role while considering the color apart from the safety and need. The firsts and foremost factor is the material of the tank. Which one you choose- steel, fibreglass, concrete or a plastic tank?

Depending upon the material, the color selection of the water tank comes into the picture. Steel galvanized, fibreglass or any other type apart from a plastic water tanks does not have much to offer when it comes to the color options. Some colors available with these types are green, tan, blue, red and grey depending on the manufacturer. While in case of plastic water storage tanks, the color choices are unlimited. At the same time, these tanks are strong, durable and lightweight. The plastic tanks are made using the same grade of material i.e. low linear density polyethylene (LLDPE) which has the highest strength and durability.

The standard colors of a plastic tank are black, green and tan. Nowadays a number of attractive colors are available to choose from. Some include parrot green, baby pink, violet, lemon green, bright orange, and golden yellow. The dark-colored tank blocks the maximum light and prevents the growth of algae. Algae is the green colored stuff floating on the banks of water which is harmful for human consumption. Algae growth takes place due to ultraviolet rays of the sunlight. When UV rays come in contact with water, algae grow. Apart from this, choosing the right color that blends into the environment well is equally important. The saying ‘Go Green’ can be promoted quite well by using an appropriate colored plastic water tank.

Selection of a color entirely depends upon the buyer’s preference. Some still prefer the traditional old colors while some are explorers and invest in the new colors available at Penguin Tank. More consumers are trying different colors at present as the quality remains the same. If you get the best quality in a better and more attractive way, then why not choose it.

Therefore, it is a fact that that color of the tank has significance from both the quality and aesthetics point of view. Next time you buy a water tank, try out the new and trendy colors from the house of Penguin Tank. Be an explorer.

Suppose, your tank is broken, may be due to rust or natural calamities or by any external body.

If it is a new tank and it has got light incisions or crack then it can be repaired with a small and cost-effective tool. But if you are trying to fix an old tank than it is hard to assume it to be a good idea. Old tanks might damage over time due to long usage. It may, not only took you several days but also a significant amount investment for repairing the tanks and you definitely won’t want it to repeat the same again and again.

So, points that will bring light to why you should buy a new plastic water storage tank over repairing an old one, are as follows:

  •  Increases Expenses: If you don’t have enough equipment at home either you have to buy them or get it done by a mechanic. Either way, it involves several expenses.
  •  No guarantee over its repair: Even after spending so much time and money in repairing your tank, it might not give you desired result or it may get damaged over again from the same or different angles and while making a continuous repair, you might actually pay the half amount of a new water tank.

So, the question arises over again, why to spend money on an old thing instead with a little more addition of money you can get a whole new Plastic Water Storage Tank which comes with 5 to 10 years guarantee to give you many worry-less years.
