To purify water:
If you have questions about the quality of the water, purify it before drinking.
You can heat water to a rolling boil for 1 minute or use commercial purification tablets to purify the water.
You can also use regular household liquid chlorine bleach if it is pure 5.25% sodium hypochlorite. (Do not use perfumed bleach!)
To purify water, use these ratios of water and bleach:
- 5 Gallons – 1/2 Teaspoon
- 1 Gallon – 8 Drops
- 1 Quart – 2 Drops
