Water Tower Cleaning Services by Power Washing Genie

Water towers are not only vital infrastructure for clean water distribution but also iconic landmarks that represent the heart of a community. These towering structures pressurize and deliver water to homes and businesses, ensuring access to safe and clean water. However, over time, water towers accumulate dirt, algae, graffiti, and other unsightly debris. Left untreated, these contaminants can degrade the structure’s appearance and potentially damage its protective finish.

At Power Washing Genie, we specialize in professional water tower cleaning, offering tailored services that restore these structures to their original condition while ensuring safety and environmental compliance.

Why Clean Your Water Tower?

Water towers endure constant exposure to the elements, leading to the buildup of:

  • Graffiti – Unsightly markings that tarnish the landmark’s appearance.
  • Algae and Mildew – Growth that can break down the protective finish.
  • Bird Droppings, Sap, and Moss – Organic debris that accumulates over time.
  • Hard Water Stains – Caused by mineral deposits from rain and water evaporation.

Neglecting regular cleaning not only diminishes the aesthetic appeal of your water tower but can also lead to costly repairs and pose health risks to the surrounding community.

 

Our Cleaning Process

Cleaning a water tower is no small task. With heights often exceeding 100 feet, careful planning and specialized equipment are required. Here’s how we handle the job:

  1. Initial Assessment and Equipment Planning
    • Evaluate the tower’s height, location, and ground conditions.
    • Determine the appropriate lift equipment and access strategy.
  2. Surface Preparation
    • Apply a proprietary detergent to break down grime, algae, and other contaminants.
    • Allow a dwell time for the detergent to loosen stubborn debris.
  3. Hot Water Power Washing
    • Utilize high-efficiency hot water pressure washers at controlled pressures (1000–1500 PSI).
    • Clean from the top of the spheroid down to the base, ensuring thorough removal of all contaminants.
  4. Safety and Environmental Compliance
    • Use eco-friendly cleaning solutions that are safe for the environment and the local water supply.
    • Equip our team with OSHA-approved safety gear, including fall-arrest harnesses and waterproof protective wear.

 

Challenges We Overcome

Cleaning water towers comes with unique challenges, including:

  • Height and Accessibility – Navigating tight spaces or uneven ground to position heavy lift equipment.
