always good to have a plan

Pros: recieved within 3 days of order
"I bought this to have in an emergency because you never know these days about power outages or disasters.
Good quality, 10 minutes to fill with good water pressure. practical hand pump is not of super grade but seems like it will serve its purpose. and i like the bottle of liquid solution to add to the full barrel of water to extend the freshness life of the water for 5 to 10 yrs. add the complete two ounces. I say this because there were no instructions in the package for how to use this solution so i found it on the internet. this solution kills bacteria in the water that can form after time.
