Variations
WaterBrick offers several product versions. A WaterBrick can hold water or other supplies such as food or ammunition. You can use different styles of WaterBrick for different contents.
The single WaterBricks can hold water, food, ammunition and can stack with the normal WaterBricks. Consider using a smaller brick or two in your vehicle.
Recommendations
The general rule of thumb is to have one gallon of water per person per day. FEMA recommends that everyone have three days of stored water. Each WaterBrick stores 3.5 gallons. At an absolute minimum have one filled WaterBrick to provide three days of water per person. I recommend having one to two weeks of stored water per person which equates to two WaterBricks (one week) or four WaterBricks (two weeks) per person. Be sure you know about Long-Term Water Storage.
WaterBricks can stack and interlock similar to large Lego bricks. When stacking WaterBricks in a square tower place the first two bricks in a square and interlock the next row at a 90° angle. Alternate the rows as you build your tower. Do not stock the bricks more than 4′ high.
