In areas that are prone to natural disasters such as hurricanes, floods or earthquakes, most people keep an emergency kit to be prepared. These usually consist of blankets, a light source, canned or dehydrated foods and some bottled water. But in dire situations, a small stockpile of bottled water may not be enough. One of the most pressing needs is always safe, drinkable water. When municipal infrastructure such as water and sewer plants are unable to function, such as during severe floods, a personal survival water filtration system can ensure that a family's needs are met. During disasters when water levels rise and public water treatment systems are overburdened, bacteria and other contaminants can make tap water unsafe to drink. If power is out for extended periods of time, people may not be able to boil water to purify it. Even depending on relief agencies to provide bottled water may not be wise if roads are impassible. Fortunately there are survival water filtration systems that don't require electricity to provide safe drinking water. These filtration systems use a series of microfilters that remove disease-causing bacteria, viruses and chemicals from tap water, rainwater and even pond water if the need arises. For those who want to be truly prepared for a long-term emergency situation and not depend on anyone for their survival water filtration systems are highly recommended. Share
