Water Storage
It may not be practical for your family to store enough water for one full year for each family member so good water purification devices and methods are strongly advised. The below water storage estimate is for minimum drinking water only not enough for cooking, rehydrating foods, cleaning, and bathing. Additionally, the CDC recommends only using between 8 and 16 drops of bleach per gallon of water for sanitation.
Water 730 Gallons
Bleach 4 Gallons
