Azl — delivered with a written warranty, to the Saudi Building Code
About Ar Ruqayqah
Ar Ruqayqah is one of Hofuf's old popular districts, home to Khuzam Palace and crossed by Prince Naif and Prince Mohammed bin Fahd roads, and is said to hold a large share of the city's residents. Its traditional houses and older blocks need roof insulation repairs and crack treatment, and tightly packed homes let pests move between buildings, so street-wide treatment coordination helps. District guide
Why Ar Ruqayqah homes need water tank insulation
Ar Ruqayqah in Al-Ahsa is home to older traditional houses, apartment buildings and shops and commercial buildings, connected by Prince Naif Road. Tanks in older houses often have worn linings or none at all, showing as changed water taste, scaling and damp creeping into neighbouring rooms. Buildings in the old parts of the city need concrete and rebar checks before insulating, because insulation over damaged concrete does not last. Summer heat warms exposed roof tanks and speeds coating breakdown, so reflective external insulation helps. The fix: check the concrete first, repair honeycombing and cracks, then line the tank with a system suited to its age and condition.
