Recommendations
The American Red Cross and FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) recommend a minimum of one gallon of water per day, per person–for drinking and minimal hygiene. Consideration should also be given to water needed for cooking and re-hydrating food. Pets will need drinking water as well. We recommend one bag-n-box per day for a family of four. The Homeland Security government website is now suggesting a minimum of a two-week supply of emergency water.
Storage Life
The FDA has not established a shelf life for bottled water. We recommend rotating product annually with other food storage items. Product can be used for camping, picnicking, etc. to help in rotating. Proper storage would include storing at room temperature away from direct sunlight, in a dry environment away from chemicals such as household cleaning products and away from solvents such as gasoline, paint thinners and other toxic material. Boxes may be stored 3 high. We do not recommend more than 3 high for storage or 2 high for transporting the product.
