Sounds good. Hope they get it on the market soon. I have a well, and filters that fit on the faucet. We also keep several cases of bottled water on hand, and each sink has some water in soda bottles for hand washing etc.
I keep a bunch of those personal hygiene packets of wipes that they use in hospitals on hand to use in case there’s a need to conserve water and limit showers. Then there’s the hot water heater water. Then there’s the rainwater collected.
When Hubby gets the swimming pool set up and diverts the rain water to it, we’ll have about 4,000 gallons in that all by itself.
Have several filters, but it wouldn’t hurt to get more.
