Water Works 15 - Roof Top Water Tanks

Delayed update...

By the beginning of November 2006 the roof top water tanks were cleaned. It was very very dirty.
1) Water Tanks on Wing 1 and Wing 3 was cleaned by me... F.O.C

Tukang paip was on Raya Leave.FOC
2) Tank on Wing 2 and the Centre Main Tank cleanned by Tukang Paip workers.

Roof Top Main Tank Overflows.
1) Informed Tukang paip about the posibility of overflow problem due to water level feedback design problem. Main Tank is split into 2, (Main Tank A and Main Tank B). Incoming water pours into both tanks but only Tank A have feedback sensors. The capacity of Tank A is much greater than Tank B due to the way the tanks were connected to each other. Main TANK A linked to tanks on WING1 and WING 3. Main TANK B is linked to WING2 tank only. So the water will overflow from Tank B until Tank A water sensor is activated.

Tukang Paip guy Zarkhan did not believe me. So he wanted to fully fill-up the tanks and see for himself. As i suspected the TANK B did overflow long before TANK A fills up.

We solve the problem by installing a Balancing Pipe between Tank A and Tank B.

This is the newly installed paip called Balancing Paip. The paip connects TANK A with TANK B. Therefore, the gravity will balance and maintains the water levels in both tanks at same level.
