about boat tanks

Marine tanks are onboard storage tanks for boats, sailboats, yachts, trawlers, and vessels. There are two types of boat tanks: fresh water tanks for storing potable water and holding tanks for collecting and storing of grey water or black water. National Tank Outlet’s marine tanks are manufactured from high-quality polyethylene resin that is BPA free, FDA-approved for potable water, and ANSI NSF 61 compliant.

Plastic marine tanks are made by manufacturers Ronco and Dura-Cast. The tanks are rotationally-molded with polyethylene resin to offer superior durability, service life, and resistance against cracking, rusting, and corrosion.

Marine tanks are most-commonly rectangular in shape. Custom-molded options are available for specific boat makes and models. Poly marine tanks are available in numerous capacities, dimensions, and wall thicknesses to guarantee the tank works for the specific application. These tanks can be used as new or replacement marine tanks. Tanks are available with pre-installed fittings and lids or as a blank tank with custom DIY fitting packages.

Getting "plastic" taste out of new water tank

• Thread starter OdayDave
• Start date Aug 10, 2012
• Forums for All Owners
• Ask All Sailors

I finally got around to plumbing the new water tank on my O'Day 25. It also has new water lines. Before plumbing it, I cleaned the new tank out out with water and chlorine bleach. I let this sit overnight and then emptied it out and plumbed it. Since the new water lines had not been chlorinated, I added about 3 gallons of water with about a cup of chlorine through the system and then let it set for a day. I then drained it out and filled the system with clean water. It still had a fairly strong taste. I repeated the chlorination and purging of the system, and while this improved things, the water still has somewhat of a plastic taste. It's not noticeable in coffee, but it is when just filling a water bottle. I'm wondering if there are other things I should try. I'm sure it will eventually dissipate, but if there are some tricks to doing this, I would appreciate hearing them. Thanks, Dave s/v Lagniappe O'Day 25  

My understanding about the use of chlorine is that it is used to kill bacteria, molds and other growing things that tend to wreck us. It is not used to remove smells that come from the manufacturing of parts in a water system. The amount of chlorine you used the first time will surely kill any living buggers in your system. The repeating of the process also would not give the results you desire. You might find a better process in the archives under the the pen of "Peggy, the Head Mistress". I would recommend skipping the use of any more chlorine and just run water through the system. If you let the water stand in the system it will remove the smell with normal use. You might use other water for drinking during this period. Maybe someone else might know a better way to remove the smell quicker than normal use. Good luck, Ray  

Don S/V ILLusion

Peroxide will serve both functions - disinfect as well as eliminate the plastic taste which is really the volatile plasticizers. Typical drug store peroxide is 2% which will be useless. Find a chemical formulator near you and get some 26% peroxide (hydrogen peroxide) and run through the entire system. Even a short residence time will work well.  

Chris Nowell

The owners' manual in our boat suggests; "5- To remove excessive chlorine taste or odor which might remain, prepare a solution of 1 quart vinegar to 5 gallons of water, and allow this solution to agitate in tank for several days by vessel motion. 6- Drain tank and again flush with potable water (IMPORTANT)."  

Slow Mo^cean

I've heard the vinegar trick working. I've also bought pre-treaters for my camelback hydration packs. I'll see if I can find them and see what the ingredients are.  

At least now you can taste the PCB's when you ingest them.  

The bonus is that white vinegar by the gallon at a supermarket should be less then $2/gallon. Run that through your water system and let it sit for as long as you can tolerate. I happen to like putting the cheapest Vodka I can find in our water tank which seems to kill odors. I'll leave about 1.75 liters in the water tank over the winter. It works great for cleaning your hands of engine grease in the spring. I bring bottled water for drinking though so I'm not sure how the water tastes once we put water in on top of the alcohol residue.  

OdayDave ..... of what material is the water tank made? If this is a 'plastic' tank, is the tank made from plastic that is certified compatible for POTABLE water usage? If metal or polyethylene, then the 'taste' can be removed or lessened. If however the tank is 'fiberglass', etc. then nothing on the planet will remove the taste, and the 'taste' is usually very harmful ... and the tank should be coated internally with suitable/special polymers for use with potable water service. What's the tank made from? ... then I can correctly answer your question.  

They sell cartridge water filters at Lowes and Home Depot. I have one on the water line for my Fridge and many people have them under their sink. Maybe adding one of these to your faucet line would be a good idea. An activated charcoal filter would remove the majority of any plasticizers remaining in your water.  

Thanks for the responses. I hadn't thought of the vinegar or the hydrogen peroxide options. The vodka option is also interesting. I did think of the filter option but since the system uses hand pumps, rather than an electric pump, I wasn't sure if it would work well. I'm sure I'll get the plastic taste out so the current problem is likely temporary. By the way, the tank is an 8-gal marine water tank bought from www.tank-depot.com . It's designed for potable water use. Dave s/v Lagniappe O'Day 25  

Do I dare say "most" people, well at least we don't use the water in our tank for drinking unless we have to. We try to use bottled water for that purpose while other folks probably prefer rum or beer. Water quality and taste will vary from marina to marina so we use our tank mainly for cooking, showers and cleanup. We always fill our water tank using a charcoal filter (just in case), I purchased it from WalMart for $17. It screws on to the end of a garden hose and has a spring wrapped 9inch hose at the egress end which helps to support its self while filling the tank. We also "ALWAYS" use an approved water hose safe for drinking and not regular garden type variety as some are labeled as unsafe for drinking. Some of the less expensive hoses will also transfer that plastic odor as well. I suppose using the charcoal filtration during the filling process probably would not work in your situation as you say the foul-plastic-taste is from the plastics within the tank it self. Just for kicks, you may want to check the type of hose you're using, taste the water just as it's leaving the hose, is it nasty, could this be your source? In any event it sounds like you would need to insert your filtration further down stream in attempt to eliminate the bad odor if the taste is from the tank and you intend to drink the water. I guess with only an 8gal tank it might not make sense.. -R  

During a new kitchen installation here last winter, my contractor replaced the copper water line from the sink to the refrig. icemaker with a plastic line he had bought at Lowes/.He swears (and i believe him, my best friend since age 5) that the hose was made specificaly for icemaker water . After 3 weeks constantly running, making ice and dumping it out, I mde him reinstall the copper. cured the awful taste problem. Dave

try rinsing it with baking soda then letting it sit for a few minuets--about 5, and thoroughly rinse it out. should make a difference--is the usual remedy for flavorful plastics.  

Re: New? It might just be the Tank! I second the vodka...only I would substitute a gallon of denatured alcohol if it is cheaper and drink the vodka. I am a chemist and we do extractables / leachables studies for metered dose inhalers. Over the years I have done extractions with water, ethanol and stronger solvents. Just water won't work worth a damn. Bleach is good for killing things, and probably helps a little, but ethanol is the way to roll. Just don't go crazy and use neat ethanol as you could damage your pump seals. However, even if the system were brand new I'd still strongly recommend you filter it. To get around the pump issue I suggest you get a water pitcher or a hand pump filter like the ones backpackers use. For a daysailer I still find that those 2.5 gallon water jugs work best. I have thought about hooking up a separate pump I could use and adapt to hook up to one. Maybe the easiest thing to do would be to work out a way to gravity feed it. http://www.outdoorplay.com/MSR-Mini-Works-EX-Water-Purifier-Filter?sc=10&category=8395#back  

I have used Peggy's recommendations referenced by Stu for three seasons and can't believe how much better my water tastes now. You'll never go wrong following RichH's advise either. I bought this tubing for my water system from McMaster Carr. I was a little worried it not being reinforced. I thought it might collapse with the pump but it has worked well. http://www.mcmaster.com/#standard-plastic-and-rubber-tubing/=itztyk  

Some great ideas posted here. Thanks. I also read some of Peggy's many posts on these issues, and I'm sure there is more that I can find from her (thanks for the reminder Stu). I would note that both the hose and the tank are new, and the smell is much less pronounced than it was initially after the chlorine treatments thus far. Still, I want to get rid of all of it if at all possible, especially given RichH's insights. I'll definitely get the filter for filling at the dock, and also run the hose before connecting to the filter. I'm a stickler for keeping things sterile and I always blow all the water out of the lines when decommissioning at the end of the season. I'll try to isolate where the odor is coming from and get back with my experience on this one. Thanks again, Dave s/v Lagniappe O'Day 25
