How to clean a toilet tank and make it look like new

We scrub, disinfect, perfume… But there is one place that we systematically forget in our toilets: the water tank!

And yet he is the one who works behind the scenes during every break.

 

 

Limescale, mould, limescale… Slowly but surely clogged.

 

 

The result? Unpleasant odors, loss of efficiency of the mechanism and excessive water consumption. The good news is that there is a natural and easy way to restore your almost new look, without aggressive products or unnecessary costs.

Why is it necessary to clean the toilet tank?

It’s a bit like polishing the body of a car without opening the hood. Although the tank is barely visible, it plays a crucial role: it stores the water that feeds the cistern. Over time, deposits accumulate there, which can slow down the mechanism, cause small, invisible leaks… and increase the water bill.

A secret weapon? White vinegar and a little elbow grease.

There is no need for deep cleaning or the purchase of special products. Here’s what you’ll need:

A pair of household gloves

Pure sponge

A new or specially designed toilet brush

Empty spray bottle

White household vinegar (an indispensable natural remedy)
