The stored water in tanks is ten supplied to the entire house\nthrough pipes. During the summer season, the temperature rises as well as the\nday time increases. During the summer season, the water tank installed on the\nrooftop of the house remains exposed to the sunlight throughout the day. As a\nresult, the temperature of the water in the tank increases. Due to the increase\nin temperature, we can\u2019t use the water directly through taps. A temporary solution\nto the problem is that pour the hot tap water in a bucket &amp; let it cool off\nfor a few minutes before using it for washing clothes, cleaning, watering\nplants, bathing, etc. This solution is time consuming &amp; you can\u2019t use this\nmethod if you have to use water throughout the day for house chores. So, if you\nare looking for a permanent solution, we have got one. In this article, we will\nshare different &amp; easy ways to keep the water tank cool during hot weather.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tips to keep the water tank cool\nduring summer<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s\ntake a look at the following useful ways to keep the water tank cool during the\nhot weather. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Installed\nthe water tank in an enclosed space<\/li><li>Paint\nyour water tank white<\/li><li>Insulate\nall your water supply pipes<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Installed the water tank in an\nenclosed space<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sunlight\nis the biggest problem &amp; cause of the rise in temperature of the water\npresent in the water tank. So, it is better to relocate the position of your\nwater tank. It is recommended to install the water tank in the enclosed space\nof your rooftop. This is one of the best &amp; easiest tips to keep your water\ntank cool during the hot weather. You can also construct an enclosed concrete\nspace on your rooftop &amp; then install the water tank in that enclosed space.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can\nalso install a shady place for a water tank if you don\u2019t want to put some extra\nefforts by installing the enclosed concrete space. Both methods will not only\nkeep the water tank cool but also protects the material of the water tank from\nthe harsh weather as the tanks are mostly made from materials like fiberglass &amp;\nplastic. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These materials\ndegraded when exposed to direct sunlight. However, you are willing to install a\nshady place or ready to construct an enclosed concrete space, you have to ask\nfor permission from the authorities because the major cities of Pakistan like Islamabad,\nKarachi, and Lahore follow very strict construction laws. And if you didn\u2019t ask\nfor permission before constructing you will be charged with a fine. So, it is\nbest to take permission before installing &amp; constructing extra space that\nis not available on the approved map. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Paint your water tank white<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of\nthe most effective ways to keep the water in your water tank cool during hot\nweather is to paint it white or any other like color, e.g: pink, blue. It is a\nproven fact that light-colored surfaces reflect more light while dark-colored surfaces\nabsorb more heat &amp; light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\npaint your water tank in a light color, the absorption of heat during summer\ndecreases. So, it is recommended to paint your water tank in light colors from\noutside &amp; inside. The light color paint does not also help in maintaining\nthe water temperature but also stops the growth of bacteria &amp; algae within\nthe container. If you want the paint to last longer, give your water tank the\nright color. A person usually makes the wrong choice when it comes to painting\nthe water tank. People use water-based paint in the case of the concrete water\ntank which is the wrong choice. Water-based paints failed to bear the rough\ncondition of the rooftop. If you want the paint to last longer, use pure\nexterior acrylic paints. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Insulate all your water supply\npipes<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to maintain the water temperature of the pipe along with the water tank, you should also have to insulate all the water supply pipes of your home. It will not only help in maintaining the water temperature during summer but also will keep it from freezing during the winter season, especially if you live in cold regions of the country. You can insulate the water supply pipes of your homes in the following ways: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Maximize\nthe use of wall insulation. This insulation technique has become a part of\ncommon construction strategies these days; this technique helps to protect the\nwater supply pipes form the harsh outdoor environment. &nbsp;<\/li><li>Insulate\nthe gaps where water supply pipes enter or exit the walls. Blocking these gaps\nwill help in keeping the temperature of the water the same in the winter &amp;\nsummer season. <\/li><li>Use\npipe wrap strips. It is considered a traditional way to insulate the water\npipes. <\/li><li>Install\nfoam pipe sleeves. Foam sleeves are easily available in the market. The pipe\nsleeves are also made of rubber insulation material. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How Can Izloo Classified Help?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As you all know Izloo Classified provides you the opportunity to post free\nads on this site.
