CP for large domestic water supply tanks
CP for large domestic water supply tanks
(OP)
Our London appartment block has four large rectangular galvanised tanks on the roof inside the Tank Room.They were put there 40 years ago and the roof built over them. I believe that galvanising has a limited life and soon we will be faced with huge expense to renew them . Would it be practical to extend the life of these tanks by adding a simple CP to each tank. London water is considered to be very hard.
I would be pleased for any comments

If there is much bare steel now then anode consumption could be fairly high and would present an ongoing maintenance issue.

If the metal is too far gone for that then maybe only replace the upper sections and coat.
There are special water service coating that are used inside of water tanks and towers with very long life.
