Sidhe rates — jitna lagta hai utna (2026)
- Overhead tanki 500L (chhota ghar): ₹699
- Overhead tanki 1000L (normal kothi): ₹899
- Sump / underground tank: ₹1,500-2,500
- Society / RWA shared tanki: ₹1,200-2,000

Agar koi WhatsApp pe ₹300 ka bole — sambhal jao. Chlorine ya jet wash skip ho raha hai. Pura process karne ka itna hi rate banta hai.
Delhi mein tanki saaf karne wale ki zaroorat kab hoti hai?
Sidhe baat — Delhi mein har ghar ki tanki har 6 mahine mein saaf honi chahiye. Yeh BIS (Bureau of Indian Standards) aur Delhi Jal Board dono ka recommendation hai. Lekin sach baat yeh hai ki 90% Delhi ghar 2-3 saal tak tanki nahi saaf karte, aur fir koi bimaar hota hai ya pani se badbu aati hai, tab dhyaan jaata hai. Aam taur pe yeh signs dikhte hain — pani thoda peela ya halka brownish dikh raha ho, nahane ke baad skin pe khujli ho rahi ho, ya kapde dhone par halki badbu aa rahi ho.
Delhi ka pani DJB se aata hai — usmein chlorine pehle se hota hai lekin tanki tak pahunchte-pahunchte woh khatam ho jata hai. Iske baad jo bhi dust, dead insects, ya bird droppings tanki ke andar girte hain, woh paani mein ghulte rehte hain. Garmi mein algae (hari hari layer) bhi bann jaati hai. Yeh sab milkar tanki ke neeche ek motti silt layer banati hai — jo aap kabhi nahi dekhte kyunki dhakkan band hota hai. 6 mahine mein yeh layer 3-4 cm tak ho jati hai, jo gandagi ka sabse bada source hai.
Bahut log poochhte hain — "bhai pani toh saaf dikh raha hai, fir kyu saaf karwaye?" Iska jawab simple hai: bacteria aur silt aankhon se nahi dikhte. E. coli, coliform, jaisa bacteria pani mein paida ho jaate hain bina koi visible sign ke. Bachhe aur budhe sabse pehle bimar padte hain — loose motion, ulti, stomach infection. Yeh sab tanki saaf karwane ki ₹699 ki fee se kahin sasta hai compare karke doctor ki visit aur dawai.
Pani ki tanki kitne paise mein saaf hoti hai? (Real rates)
Delhi NCR mein tanki cleaning ka market rate sectoral aur location wise alag-alag hota hai — lekin honest range yeh hai. Hum khud aur 30+ local vendors ke prices check karke yeh table banayi hai. Agar koi vendor isse bahut neeche bole, samajh jao ki kuch corner cut ho raha hai — usually chlorine quantity ya jet wash skip hota hai.
| Tanki Type | Size | Rate (Delhi) | Time taken |
|---|---|---|---|
| Overhead Plastic Tank | 500L | ₹699 | 45-60 min |
| Overhead Plastic Tank | 1000L | ₹899 | 60-75 min |
| Overhead Plastic Tank | 2000L | ₹1,200-1,500 | 75-90 min |
| Sump / Underground Tank | 2000-5000L | ₹1,500-2,500 | 90-120 min |
| Sump / Underground Tank | 5000-10000L | ₹2,800-3,500 | 120-150 min |
| Society Shared Tank | 10,000-25,000L | ₹1,200-2,000 | 150-180 min |
| FSSAI Restaurant Tank | 500-2000L | ₹1,500-2,500 | 90-120 min (with TDS test) |
| Combo (Overhead + Sump) | Kothi standard | ₹2,500-3,000 | 2.5-3 hours |
Hidden charges se bachna: Kuch tanki saaf karne wale phone pe ₹400 bolte hain, fir aane ke baad ₹300 chlorine ke, ₹200 jet wash ke, ₹150 photos ke — aise extra add karte hain. KaamGenie mein sab kuch base price mein included hai. Jo bola, wahi liya jaata hai. Cash, UPI, ya online — jo bhi convenient ho, payment options khule hain.
Delhi ke alag-alag area mein rate slightly vary karte hain — Defence Colony, GK, Vasant Kunj jaise posh areas mein local vendor 10-15% ziada lete hain. Outer Delhi (Najafgarh, Burari, Dwarka Sector 26+) mein rates same hote hain lekin travel time ki vajah se hum slot subah jaldi ya shaam ko fix karte hain.
Ghar aaye, tanki saaf kare — aaj hi book karo
Fixed rate, koi hidden charges nahi. Before/after photos WhatsApp pe, GST invoice, food-grade chlorine. Same-day available agar subah book kar lo.
8-step process — kya kya karta hai KaamGenie crew
Bahut log poochhte hain — "bhai itni baar paise dene ka kya matlab, tanki toh paani se hi saaf hoti hai na?" Galat. Pure tanki cleaning ek proper process hai jisme 8 steps hote hain. Agar koi vendor 30 minute mein "ho gaya bhai" bol ke nikal jaaye, samjho aadhe steps skip kiye. Niche pura process hai — humne har step ka time aur material likha hai taaki aap khud verify kar sako.
- Inspection aur photos — Crew aata hai, tanki ko khol ke andar dekhta hai, sludge depth measure karta hai. Pehli photo abhi click hoti hai. Aap WhatsApp pe receive karte ho ki tanki kis condition mein thi.
- Drainage — Pura pani neeche nikaala jaata hai motor ya manual pump se. Last 2-3 inch wet vacuum se uthate hain taaki chlorine pani mein dilute na ho.
- Sludge removal — Niche jami hui silt, mud, dead insects sab haath se aur vacuum se nikaale jaate hain. Yeh sabse important step hai — isi mein contamination ka main source hai.
- Wall scrubbing — Food-grade nylon brush se andar ki walls, floor, aur pipes ko scrub karte hain. Plastic tanki ke liye soft brush, concrete sump ke liye thoda hard brush.
- High-pressure jet wash — 80-120 bar industrial jet machine se dheeli biofilm aur mineral scale hata jaata hai. Yeh wo cheez hai jo brush se nahi nikalti.
- Disinfection — Food-grade sodium hypochlorite (5% concentrate) se 20 minute contact time. Pool chlorine ya bathroom bleach NAHI — sirf food-grade. MSDS available hai jab maango.
- Final rinse — Sara chlorine flush kar diya jaata hai clean pani se. Ab tanki refill ke liye ready hai.
- Refill + after-photos + invoice — Pani aapki normal supply se refill hota hai. Final WhatsApp pe before/after photos bhejte hain. GST invoice email aur WhatsApp pe same-day deliver hota hai.
Pura process mein 60-120 minute lagte hain depending on tanki size. Agar koi 20 minute mein bol de "ho gaya", samjho corner cut hua. Specially chlorine ka 20-minute contact time skip nahi ho sakta — chemistry ko time chahiye bacteria kill karne mein.
Kothi ki sump tank — alag hi maamla hai
Delhi mein zyada tar kothi (bungalow / plot house) wale ghar mein do tankiya hoti hain — chhat pe overhead (1000-2000L) aur zameen ke neeche sump (2000-10000L). DJB ka pani pehle sump mein aata hai, fir motor se chhat tak chadhta hai. Sump saaf karwana overhead se zyada complex hai kyunki andar utarna padta hai aur usmein safety risks hote hain.
Sump cleaning ke liye crew ke pass yeh saaman hona zaroori hai — safety harness (chest belt wala), gas meter (H2S aur oxygen check karne ke liye), helmet, dastane, aur ek standby crew member jo bahar rope hold karke khada rahe. Yeh sab equipment hi ₹15,000-20,000 ka hota hai, isiliye sump cleaning ka rate ₹1,500-2,500 padta hai. Agar koi ₹500 mein sump saaf karne ka bole — samjho safety gear nahi hai, aur woh banda apni jaan jokhim mein daal raha hai. Aapki tanki sahi nahi hogi aur kuch ghalat ho gaya toh aap fas jaoge.
Sump ka common problem hai "rotten egg" jaisi badbu — yeh hydrogen sulfide gas hai jo organic decay se banta hai. Yeh gas zeher hai. Har saal Delhi NCR mein 50+ log marte hain sump aur manhole mein bina safety ke utarne ke chakkar mein. NCRB ke data mein yeh likha hai. Iska matlab kya nikla? Khud kabhi sump mein mat utarna — bhale hi kitna bhi simple kaam lag raha ho.
Society wale ki shared tanki — RWA contract kaise lein
Delhi ki har society mein ek bada underground tank hota hai (15,000-50,000L) aur 2-3 chhat ke tank har building pe. Yeh society ke maintenance fund se saaf hote hain. Aap akeli ghar tarah book nahi karte — RWA (Residents Welfare Association) ya building secretary se decide hota hai. Lekin aap RWA meeting mein insist kar sakte ho ki "AGM ke baad har 3 mahine mein cleaning ho" — yeh aapka haq hai kyunki maintenance aap dete ho.
RWA ke liye AMC (Annual Maintenance Contract) sabse smart option hai. Per-visit rate se 20-25% sasti padti hai, aur 4 visits saal mein automatic schedule hoti hain. Hum RWA secretary ko 1-page MoU bhejte hain — price slabs, visit dates, photo deliverables, water TDS report, GST invoice. Sab document mein clear hota hai taaki next AGM mein koi sawal na ho.
Punjabi Bagh ki ek society mein humne pichhle saal yeh dekha — pichla vendor ₹800 mahine le raha tha, lekin photo proof kabhi nahi diya. AGM mein resident ne sawal uthaya. Naya quarterly contract humse liya, har visit pe 50+ photos WhatsApp group mein bhejte hain. Cost wahi rahi, transparency 10x. Yeh model har Delhi society pe kaam karta hai — East Delhi, West Delhi, GK, jahan bhi.
Restaurant aur FSSAI tanki — special rules
Restaurant ki tanki normal ghar ki tanki nahi hoti — yahan FSSAI ka involvement hota hai. FSSAI inspection ke time woh poochhega: "last cleaning kab hui? Documentation hai? Water TDS report dikhao." Agar yeh records nahi mile toh license suspend ho sakta hai. Karol Bagh, CP, Khan Market, GK — sabhi commercial F&B areas mein hum yeh weekly basis pe handle karte hain.
FSSAI ke hisaab se commercial kitchen ki tanki har 6 mahine mein saaf honi chahiye. Lekin restaurant inspector usually 3 mahine ka record bhi maangta hai — isiliye humare commercial clients quarterly cleaning karte hain. Hum unhe yeh chiz dete hain — cleaning date, vendor letterhead pe certificate, before/after photos, water TDS report (ideally 100-300 ppm), aur GST invoice. Yeh 5 documents inspection mein pass hone ke liye sufficient hain.
Ek aur baat — restaurant ki tanki agar dirty rahi toh kitchen mein bana khana bhi safe nahi rehta. Salad dhone ka pani, daal banane ka pani, glass dhone ka pani — sab usi tanki se aata hai. Hum recommend karte hain ki har restaurant owner kitchen wall pe last cleaning date ka sticker laga ke rakhe — inspector ko khud hi confidence mil jaata hai aur question kam puchta hai.
Hum khud tanki kyun nahi saaf karte? (Honest jawab)
Sach baat yeh hai — agar aapki overhead plastic tanki chhoti hai (500L) aur chhat pe easy access hai, toh aap khud saaf kar sakte ho. Pani nikalo, niche scrub karo, fresh pani daalo — ho gaya. Lekin yeh "DIY cleaning" professional cleaning nahi hai. 4 cheezein miss ho jaati hain jo bacteria kill karne ke liye zaroori hain:
- Food-grade chlorine: Aam log ghar mein bleach (Domex, Harpic, etc.) use karte hain. Yeh industrial-grade hota hai — pani-pine ke layak nahi. Food-grade sodium hypochlorite 5% chahiye, jo medical/sanitation supply stores mein milta hai aur sahi quantity calculate karni padti hai.
- Jet wash pressure: Ghar ke shower ya bucket se jo pressure aata hai, woh sirf 1-2 bar hota hai. Biofilm aur mineral scale hatane ke liye 80-120 bar industrial jet chahiye. Yeh machine ₹15,000 ki aati hai — ek baar cleaning ke liye kharidne ka koi sense nahi.
- Sludge measurement: Aap nahi jaante ki niche kitni silt layer hai. Vacuum ya proper scoop ke bina poori sludge nahi nikalti. Aap "saaf dikha" sochke chhod dete ho — biofilm reh jaata hai.
- Contact time discipline: Chlorine 20 minute contact karna chahiye bacteria kill karne ke liye. Ghar mein log usually 5 minute mein rinse kar dete hain. Effective disinfection nahi hoti.
Toh DIY karna hai? Sirf overhead tanki, chhoti size, aur saaf-suthri rooftop access. Sump bilkul mat karna — safety risk zeher gas se hai jo monkey hi jaan le sakta hai. ₹699-899 mein professional cleaning karwa lo — sukoon bhi milega aur pani 6 mahine tak safe rahega.
Kab kab saaf karwani chahiye — Frequency table
Sahi frequency depend karti hai aapki tanki type, location aur water source pe. Niche poora breakdown hai — yeh hamare 200+ Delhi customers ke real data se nikla hai, aur BIS ke recommendations ke saath align hai.
| Tank Type | Frequency | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Ghar ki overhead tanki (DJB pani) | Har 6 mahine | March-April + October-November ideal — mausam ke pehle aur baad |
| Sump / underground tank | Har 6 mahine | BIS guideline, monsoon ke baad zaroor saaf karwao |
| Society shared tank | Har 3 mahine | High usage, RWA AMC mein covered, FSSAI/audit compliance |
| Restaurant / FSSAI | Har 3-6 mahine | FSSAI inspection record ke liye, customer safety priority |
| Borewell pani wala tank | Har 4 mahine | High TDS ⇒ tezi se mineral scale aur silt buildup |
| New construction (pehli baar) | Turant + 3 mahine baad repeat | Construction debris (cement, plaster, dust) bahut deep settle hota hai |
| Naya kothi kharida hai | Immediately | Pichle owner ne kab saaf karwaya, kuch nahi pata. Reset zaroori hai |
Delhi mein sabse common pattern yeh hai — Holi ke baad aur Diwali ke baad. Garmi shuru hone se pehle tanki saaf hoti hai taaki garmi mein algae na bane, aur monsoon ke baad jo gandagi seep karke aati hai woh nikal jaye. Yeh natural cycle hai — calendar pe reminder set karo aur dono baar book kar do.
Bar-bar yaad rakhne ka jhanjhat nahi — AMC le lo
Saal mein 4 visits, 20% off per-visit price se. Priority slot, water-quality test included, automatic schedule. Society aur restaurant ke liye specially designed.
Real Delhi customer stories
Roz hum jo dekhte hain, woh three patterns mein aata hai. Yahan kuch case hain — sirf saamney ki baat, koi marketing nahi.
Defence Colony ka kothi owner. 2 saal pehle bungalow buy kiya. Pichle owner ne kabhi nahi bataya ki sump bhi hai. 18 mahine baad pani se badbu aane lagi. Hume bulaya — sump check kiya, andar 8 cm sludge tha. Pehli cleaning mein 3 ghante lage (normal se zyada). Combo (sump + overhead) mein ₹2,800 liya. Ab har 6 mahine ki AMC hai — har baar 90 minute mein kaam ho jaata hai kyunki maintenance regular hai. Pichle saal bhar ek bar bhi pani se badbu nahi aayi.
Punjabi Bagh ki society RWA. 24 flats ka building. Pehle ₹800 per month ka local vendor tha — "tank dip karke" chla jaata tha, photos kabhi nahi. RWA secretary ne AGM mein sawal uthaya. Humara quarterly contract liya. Per cleaning ₹4,500, saal mein 4 baar = ₹18,000. Pichle vendor ka saal ka ₹9,600 tha lekin proper cleaning nahi thi. Ab har visit pe 30+ photos WhatsApp group mein, water TDS report email pe, GST invoice. Residents ne 2nd year mein renew kiya bina kisi sawal ke.
Karol Bagh restaurant. FSSAI inspector ka 48-hour notice aaya. Owner panic mein humein subah 7 baje WhatsApp kiya. Same-day cleaning karwayi, full documentation (cleaning certificate, photos, TDS report 180 ppm, GST invoice). Inspector aaya, paperwork dekha, pass kar diya. Ab woh restaurant har 3 mahine mein book karta hai — emergency wali situation phir kabhi nahi aayi. Khan Market aur CP mein bhi yeh pattern aksar repeat hota hai.

Common questions / Aksar pucha jaata hai
Tanki kitne paise mein saaf hoti hai Delhi mein?
Delhi mein normal ghar ki overhead tanki ₹699 (500L) se ₹899 (1000L) tak saaf hoti hai. Kothi ki sump tank ₹1,500-2,500 ka kaam hai, society ki shared tanki ₹1,200-2,000, aur restaurant FSSAI tanki ₹1,500-2,500. Agar koi ₹300 mein bola toh kuch skip kar raha hai — usually chlorine ya proper jet wash.
Kitne mahine mein ek baar tanki saaf karwani chahiye?
BIS aur DJB ke hisaab se har 6 mahine mein ek baar minimum. Delhi mein March-April (garmi se pehle) aur October-November (monsoon ke baad) sabse best timing hai. Society ya restaurant ki tanki har 3-4 mahine mein. Borewell ke pani wali tanki har 4 mahine mein kyunki TDS jyada hota hai.
Sump kya hota hai? Overhead tank se kaise different?
Sump matlab underground tanki — ghar ke neeche zameen mein concrete ya fibreglass ki bani hui. DJB ka pani pehle sump mein jaata hai, fir motor se chhat ki overhead tanki mein chadhta hai. Sump zyada bada hota hai (2,000-10,000L) aur saaf karne mein ziada paisa lagta hai kyunki andar utarne ke liye safety gear lagti hai — harness, gas meter, helmet.
Society wale ki tanki ka rate kya hai?
Society ki shared tanki ₹1,200-2,000 per visit padti hai depending on size. AMC contract (saal mein 4 visits) lene par 15-25% discount milta hai. Hum RWA ko alag-alag price slabs deti hain — 5,000L, 10,000L, 25,000L+. Documentation milti hai jo RWA AGM mein dikhayi ja sakti hai.
FSSAI restaurant ke liye kya rules hain?
FSSAI inspector tanki cleaning ka record maangta hai — last cleaning date, vendor name, water TDS report. Restaurant ki tanki har 6 mahine mein saaf honi chahiye (BIS guideline). Hum GST invoice, before/after photos aur TDS reading sab dete hain. Karol Bagh aur CP ke restaurants mein hum yeh roz dekhte hain.
Hum khud tanki saaf kar sakte hain?
Overhead tanki agar chhoti hai aur chhat tak easy access hai toh shayad kar sakte ho, lekin food-grade chlorine, sahi brush, aur jet wash kahan se laoge? Sump bilkul mat karna — andar zeher gas (H2S, methane) bante hain jo har saal log ki jaan le lete hain. ₹699 bachane ke chakkar mein risk mat lena.
Kaam ke baad before/after photos milti hain?
Haan bilkul. Har KaamGenie booking mein crew kaam shuru karne se pehle aur baad mein photos kheenchta hai, fir WhatsApp pe customer ko bhej deta hai same-day. Yeh proof hai ki kaam hua aur kaisa hua. RWA aur restaurant customers ke liye yeh documentation FSSAI/AGM ke liye bhi kaam aati hai.
GST invoice milta hai?
Haan, har booking par proper GST invoice milta hai email aur WhatsApp pe. Company ka naam, GSTIN, service details, amount — sab kuch likha hota hai. Restaurant aur society customers ko yeh accounts ke liye chahiye hota hai. Cash mein bhi pay kar sakte ho, UPI bhi, sab options hain — invoice har case mein milti hai.
Annual contract (AMC) ka kya rate hai?
AMC matlab saal mein 4 cleanings (har 3 mahine mein ek baar). Per-visit price se 20% sasti padti hai. Ghar ke liye AMC ₹2,500-3,500 saal mein, society ke liye size pe depend karta hai — 25,000L tanki ka AMC ₹14,000-18,000 saal padta hai. AMC mein priority slot bhi milta hai aur water-quality test bhi included.
KaamGenie ka contact number kya hai? Same-day booking hoti hai?
Hamara number hai +91 95603 66362. WhatsApp pe bhi same number pe message kar sakte ho — aksar 5-10 minute mein reply aa jata hai. Same-day booking possible hoti hai agar morning mein book karoge aur aapka area Delhi NCR mein hai. Weekends bhi available, koi extra charge nahi.
