Emergency Drinking Water Storage for simpler storage

Fill up your shower and tap off your toilets. After a big catastrophe hits, the public water supply may be toxin heavy or completely turned off for days. Promptly fill your tubs, sinks, and other available bottles with water. This will provide your family with a short-term quantity of clean, drinkable water.

There is also a supply of clean, drinkable water in the bathroom tanks, hot-water heater, and pipes in your house. The moment you notice that the water has stopped flowing, save the water in your bathroom tanks (the tanks, not the bowl, contain potable water) and promptly tell all other dwellers to not flush the toilets. (CAUTION: Do not consume the toilet tank water if you use an automatic bathroom cleaner with blue toilet water).
