Underground tank construction in Salmi
An underground tank in Salmi near the Kuwait-Iraq border faces extreme temperature swings due to desert proximity. We site the tank far from border water lines and build very tight walls with extra thermal insulation to protect tank water from heat contamination.

What sets this area apart
Salmi is a border zone in Jahra governorate near Salmi Market and the direct border, with rock-hard scorching soil. Summer temperatures reach fifty degrees Celsius so water in a surface tank heats fast, making underground storage much better for keeping water cool. We add an extra insulating membrane over the tank under the soil to reflect heat, and test the internal water temperature right after filling to confirm it stays cool.
Salmi sits in Jahra governorate on Kuwait's north-western border, a very hot zone requiring special water protection.
We test tank water temperature at full fill and record it because extreme heat can trigger algae growth.
What the job covers
Walls and base construction
Base and walls built to carry soil pressure and full water load
Full waterproof lining
Internal and external coating layers that block water movement in both directions
Pipe entry points
Inlet and outlet openings sealed with rubber collars to prevent pipe-joint leaks
Pump and float connection
Transfer pump and water-level float wired and adjusted for correct operation
Tightness test
Tank filled and water level watched to confirm zero leakage before backfilling
How we work
Our four steps, and you see every one
You call and describe it
Tell us what is happening and where, and the right equipment is loaded before we arrive.
The camera goes down
We film the line from inside and know the kind of blockage and its exact place. No guessing.
We clear it
High pressure water, a machine or a drain snake, whichever the line actually needs.
We film it again
The camera runs a second pass and you see the line clear with your own eyes before we leave.
Who we work for
Same method, same equipment. Only the size of the job changes.

Will scorching desert heat spoil concrete in a Salmi tank?
Concrete itself tolerates heat well, but extreme heat expands water inside the tank and raises internal pressure. We use high-strength concrete and install expansion joints in walls to relieve extra pressure.
Will the tank need extra shading above ground?
An underground tank by nature sits under soil so no extra shading is needed. But if the top cover sits close to surface we add thick sand or gravel over it for extra thermal insulation.
