Product Description
When considering
Emergency Water Storage remember all water has bacteria in it, unless it has been purified and sterilized. Bacteria grows with heat and light. After a few months the bacteria growth can reach levels that could make you ill. To insure safe drinking water and to avoid constant rotation and dumping of your water storage every few months, plan on pre-treating your water with a product called ''Water Preserver''. This concentrate is an EPA approved treatment that will provide you with 5 years of emergency water storage when used in combination with approved (air tight) water storage barrels.
TIP! Bleach contains arsenic and mercury and should only be used as a last resort as a result of poor planning. Bleach is not designed for human consumption. It does not provide long term storage capability. Never store your drinking water in used bleach bottles. The plastic bottles are not safe for long term storage. It can leach dangerous chemicals into your water.
So how much is enough?
Whether you are storing emergency water for earthquakes, floods, disaster preparedness. You should store at least one gallon per person per day for at least 7 days. I would suggest 3 weeks. For a family of four, I would consider storing at least one 55 gallon Water Storage Barrel. Don't forget you are going to need water for not only drinking, but for food preparation, sanitation and first aid. Hand washing will become very important in a disaster to cut the risk of disease and infection. You can't have too much water.
Water Preserver Concentrate is the perfect solution for long term emergency water storage of large quanities of water. Simply add the concentrate to tap water and this pre-treatment will sterilize 55 gallons in Water Storage Barrels. This product is a EPA approved chlorine based product providing a 5 year shelf life.
