Content:

Treated water needs to be protected from recontamination with a good storage container.


 
 

A separate drinking water container should only be used to store treated water. Use a different container for dirty water and use it only for untreated source water.

A good storage container has the following features:

•  Strong and tightly fitting lid or cover

•  Tap or narrow opening

•  Stable base

•  Durable

•  Comfortable handle

•  Allows air to enter as water is poured

•  Should not be translucent

These features of a good storage container will prevent recontamination.

A clear storage container, placed in the sun, may become dirty very quickly. Place the storage container in a shady place within the home. It should be stored off the ground in a clean place.

Sometimes it is difficult to find or buy a good storage container. The most important things are to make sure that it is covered and only used for treated water .

Check for Understanding:

•  What is a good water storage container? Why?

•  Where can you get a good water storage container?

•  Why should we keep our hand and fingers out of the storage container?

•  Why does a good storage container have a lid?
