What are the Best Practices for Safe Water Storage?
Safe water storage involves several key practices:
Use Clean Containers: Always use clean and food-grade containers to store water. Avoid using containers that previously held chemicals or non-food substances. Keep Containers Covered: Ensure that all water storage containers are tightly covered to prevent contamination from dust, insects, and other pollutants. Store in a Cool, Dark Place: Water should be stored in a cool, dark place to prevent the growth of microorganisms. Label Containers: Clearly label containers with the date of storage to keep track of the freshness of the water.
