If there is bad smell even after cleaning the tank, then try these easy solutions, the bad smell will go away.

It is very important to clean the water tank from time to time, so that the water remains clean and does not smell bad. However, sometimes despite thorough washing and cleaning of the tank, a strange smell starts coming from it. Due to this, it becomes difficult to use water and it can also have adverse effects on health. If this is happening to you too, then there is no need to worry. Here are some very easy and effective solutions, with the help of which you can remove this bad smell from the tank forever.

1. Use of baking soda and vinegar

Baking soda and vinegar act as a natural cleanser. After cleaning the tank, mix 4-5 tablespoons of baking soda and a cup of white vinegar in a bucket of water. Apply this solution thoroughly on the walls of the tank and leave it for a few hours. After this wash the tank with clean water. This will completely eliminate the bacteria and odor causing elements present in the tank.

2. Use of bleaching powder or chlorine
Sometimes bacteria grow in the walls of the tank or pipeline, which causes bad smell. After emptying the tank, sprinkle appropriate amount of chlorine or bleaching powder in it. Leave it on the walls for some time and then wash it with clean water with pressure. Keep in mind that after this process, leave the tank open for a few hours, so that the smell of chlorine goes away completely.

3. Sunlight and air flow
Do not close the tank with the lid immediately after cleaning it. Leave the lid of the tank open and let it get natural sunlight and air for a few hours. Sun rays naturally eliminate moisture and bacteria, thereby eliminating the problem of dampness and odor.

4. Lemon juice
Lemon has natural sourness and fragrance, which is helpful in removing bad odor. Mix lemon juice in water and spray it on the inside of the tank and wash it with water after some time. This will maintain a fresh smell in the tank.
