How to Maintain and Care for Your Water Tank Jacket – A Guide by Tankers

How to Maintain and Care for Your Water Tank Jacket.

At Tankers, we design our water tank jackets to be durable, long-lasting, and easy to maintain — but like any outdoor product, they still need a little care to keep performing at their best. Whether you’ve just installed your jacket or have had one for a while, proper maintenance ensures it continues to protect your tank from heat, dust, UV rays, and weather damage. In this guide, I’ll walk you through simple yet effective steps to keep your water tank jacket in top condition for years to come.

 

1. Keep It Clean – Regular Cleaning Is Key

Over time, dirt, dust, bird droppings, and pollen can accumulate on the surface of your jacket. While our jackets are made with high-quality, dirt-resistant fabric, regular cleaning helps preserve their appearance and functionality.

 

Here’s how to clean your jacket:

  • Step 1: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove loose dust and debris.
  • Step 2: Mix mild soap with water and gently scrub the surface.
  • Step 3: Rinse thoroughly with clean water — avoid using pressure washers as they may damage the fabric.
  • Step 4: Allow the jacket to air dry completely before putting it back on the tank.

Tip: If your jacket is machine-washable (as many of ours are), simply remove it, wash on a gentle cycle, and air dry.

 

2. Inspect for Wear and Tear

Even the toughest jackets can show signs of wear after prolonged exposure to sun, rain, and wind. That’s why we recommend inspecting your jacket every few months.

Look out for:

  • Loose stitching or fraying edges
  • Faded or cracked fabric
  • Damaged straps or fasteners

If you notice any issues early, you can often repair them quickly — like reattaching a strap or patching a small tear — before they become bigger problems.

 

3. Ensure Proper Fit and Tightness

A jacket that’s loose or slipping off won’t insulate properly and could even get blown away in strong winds. Check the adjustable straps and buckles regularly to make sure everything is secure and the jacket fits snugly around your tank. If the jacket feels too tight or too loose, contact us — we can help you find a better fit or offer replacement parts if needed.

 

4. Avoid Sharp Objects and Heat Sources

While our jackets are built to withstand normal outdoor conditions, sharp tools, branches, or direct exposure to open flames or hot surfaces can cause permanent damage. Make sure the area around your tank is clear of hazards that could puncture or melt the fabric.

 

5. Store It Smartly When Not in Use

If you live in an area where seasonal changes affect your need for insulation — say, you only use the jacket during summer — store it properly when not in use.

Storage tips:

  • Clean and dry the jacket completely before storing
  • Fold it neatly and keep it in a cool, dry place
  • Avoid placing heavy items on top of it

This prevents mold, mildew, and unnecessary creasing or tearing.
