55-Gallon Water DrumAugason Farms 55-Gallon Water Drum is BPA-free and produced from food-grade Polyethylene. Be sure your family has the water they need in an emergency with an easily-accessible supply of safe, potable water for drinking, cleaning, cooking and sanitation. Don’t forget to pick up water treatment drops to ensure your water is free of bacteria, viruses, and cysts. |
Water Contamination HappensAccording to the CDC (Center for Disease Control and Prevention), water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH)-related emergency preparedness and outbreak response has become one of the most significant and crucial public health issues in recent history. Emergencies can include natural disasters (for example, hurricanes, floods, and droughts), man-made disasters (for example, chemical spills into waterways), and outbreaks (for example, infections linked to water exposure after a disaster). Having clean and safe water in an emergency situation to meet drinking, sanitation, and hygiene needs is essential for every person. Source: www.cdc.com |
Is Your Family Prepared?When building your family’s emergency water supply, it is recommended that you plan for a minimum* of 1 gallon of water per day for each person and pet. That's 2 quarts for drinking and 2 quarts for cooking and personal hygiene. Use the chart above as a guide to help ensure that your family has enough water to survive. *Store more water for hot climates, pregnant or nursing women, and people who are ill. |
