Remove Accumulated Contamination
Cleaning addresses material that has settled inside the tank rather than simply treating the fuel above it.
Clean Fuel Starts With a Clean Tank
You can polish your fuel. You can replace your filters. You can add treatment products.
But if the bottom of your tank is holding years of sludge, sediment, microbial debris or other contamination, the source of the problem is still there.
That’s when you need to treat the tank—not just the fuel.
Tank Rx cleans the problem at its source.
Why Do Fuel Tanks Need Cleaning?
A tank may need cleaning when contamination has become too extensive for routine fuel polishing to adequately address or when contamination continues to return after the fuel has been treated.
Signs Your Fuel Tank May Need Cleaning
Your fuel storage system may be telling you it’s time for a deeper cleaning if you’re experiencing:
- Repeated fuel contamination
- Excessive sediment or sludge
- Frequent filter plugging
- Water accumulation
- Evidence of microbial contamination
- Fuel quality problems that return after polishing
- Long periods of fuel storage
- Problems following a contaminated fuel delivery
- A tank that has gone years without cleaning
A fuel sample can help determine what’s happening before you commit to a larger service. Contact Tank Rx to schedule your free fuel sample today!

What Happens If You Don’t Clean a Contaminated Fuel Tank?
A tank with significant contamination can become a repeating source of fuel problems.
You may polish the fuel today, only to discover the same contamination showing up again later. Sediment can continue accumulating, water can remain at the bottom of the tank, and microbial contamination can contribute to sludge and corrosion concerns.
Eventually, the problem can move beyond the tank and into filters, pumps, dispensers and engines.
If the tank is dirty, clean fuel alone may only be a temporary fix.
Is Your Fuel Clean Enough?
