Getting The Chemical Taste Out Of A Portable Collapsible Drinking Water Tank

by Portable Tank Group Tech Team
(Florida, USA)

Our customer contacted us with a problem he explored. He bought a portable collapsible flexible tank to store potable drinking water. This customer had a challenging time getting the chemical taste out of the portable tank.

He tried it with white vinegar a couple times and it worked temporarily but then the chemical taste returned.

The customer asked our tech team for suggestions to resolve this problem.

Our Portable Tank Group tech team recommended to wash out the tank with hot water at 70oC first.

If this isn't working preparing a very mild chlorine solution (5%) and thoroughly rinsing the tank would be the next option.

The portable tank can also be sterilized with micro-cat, an industry approved sterilizing agent. This product is available from:
