More about emergency water supply
An emergency water supply is packaged drinking water you can put away for years and forget about. No filtering, no boiling, no contact time: open it and drink. That makes it the calmest answer for the first hours and days of a disruption, before you feel like setting up equipment. As a stock it complements a water filter rather than replacing it, because a filter keeps producing for as long as there is a source to draw from.

Work out how many days you want to cover and for how many people; the quantity follows from there. Store the packaging cool, dark and off a bare concrete floor, and keep it away from cleaning products and fuel, because both taste and shelf life suffer otherwise. Write the date on the box and set a reminder so you rotate the stock in good time. Combine packaged water with a gravity filter at home and with water purification tablets: the packaged water bridges the start, the filter and tablets handle the supply after that. On the move, a compact backpacking filter beats carrying bottles.

A filter always needs a source, plus time and handling. Packaged water is ready to drink and asks nothing of you at the moment something goes wrong. The pairing is what works: packaged water for the start, a filter for the long run.
