Freezing or excessive cold of the water tank kept on the roof is a common problem in winter. Rae Bareli’s plumber Mohit Kumar (ITI Plumber, Government Industrial Training Institute, Lucknow) has given some special tips to avoid this problem. By adopting these measures, you can maintain normal temperature of water in your tank even in severe cold.
It is common in winter for the water in the water tank kept on the roof to become extremely cold or freeze in extreme cold. This causes problems in daily work and people remain worried. But, today we are going to tell you some special measures, by which you can easily prevent the water of the tank from getting too cold or freezing.
This is the easiest way to protect the tank water from extreme cold during cold weather. Covering it with a thermal insulation set or foam cover. This is a cover that prevents fog, frost and cold air from entering the tank, due to which the temperature of the water in the tank remains normal.
Another solution to maintain the normal temperature of the water tank kept on the roof in extreme cold is to paint the tank kept in the open in black color. By doing this, the water in the tank will remain normal even in extreme cold, because black color absorbs heat and draws heat rapidly even in mild sunlight. Keep in mind that the paint should be waterproof and durable, so that its effect remains for a long time.

During winter season, keep the water tank in such a place where maximum sunlight can fall on it. Sunlight naturally keeps the tank warm and is also effective in reducing the effect of cold wind.
In case of extreme cold, the water temperature can be kept normal by covering the water tank with old mattresses. This prevents cold air from coming near the tank, which prevents the water in the tank from getting too cold or freezing.
To maintain normal temperature of tank water during winter season, use a wooden or iron box. Make a box and cover the tank, which will protect the tank from cold winds and maintain the normal temperature of the water.
If it is extremely cold, then the easiest way to maintain the normal temperature of the water in the tank is to use a water heater. It proves to be effective in maintaining normal temperature of tank water even in severe cold.
The last resort is that if you are planning to place the new tank on the roof, then choose a double layer tank. This tank with additional layer is more effective in maintaining normal temperature of water during winter season.
