Water addendum

I described my water solution earlier...

Since then I realized that I also have another water backup, though, it's not really a back up but more of a primary plan.  We have a reverse osmosis system under our kitchen sink.



It's a bunch of filters and a small holding tank that tap off of our cold water supply under there and lead to a separate faucet.


To me, much more likely than a water catastrophe (where all drinking water stops flowing) is a water quality issue, where we're advised that the water isn't drinkable.  The RO unit mitigates many of those types of issues and can be our backup.  Yes, technically these units don't have the industrial quality seals that make them "officially" able to purify water, there's ample evidence that we could rely on this unit for a short term emergency.
