Filtering and Using Stored Water

To improve the taste of stored water, consider running it through a reputable filter

AquaRain, Berkey, Katadyne, Seychelle 
Available online and at Recreation/Hunting/Fishing/Camping Stores


Using a pump or spigot, pour water into a water pitcher, then through a filter.

Pour the water from one pitcher or jar to another several times to re-oxygenate it.

Using a glass crock with a lid, or canning jars with lids, fill them up, 
shake, then place water in the sun for a couple of 
hours to re-energize

Remember......... sugary drink powders will create more thirst and though it may 
taste better, will not quench the body’s thirst and need for pure clean water.  More thirst to dilute the sugar response in the body.


What is a Wapi?


A WAPI is a transparent tube which contains wax. The wax melts and drops to the bottom of the tube when it reaches 150°F (65°C) for 6 minutes indicating that the water has been pasteurized and is now safe to drink. A Water Pasteurization Indicator (WAPI) is a simple thermometer that indicates when water has reached pasteurization temperature and is safe to drink.
