I have two plastic barrel pumps to get it out of the 55s. If they're down, I could siphon it into other containers. So far, I've got three 55s, two 15s and four 5s. I bought the smaller sizes in case I have to move them. I really just wanted to have water on hand, just in case 'the flow' stopped. I was thinking of water for drinking, food (re-hydrating the freeze dried stuff) and cleaning/washing/rinsing. I even thought of fire, but I have no way of getting the water on the fire and figured the little I have wouldn't last long anyway.
I've looked into trapping rain water too, from a modified down spout. Obviously, it won't be as clean as water from the tap, but it'll be good for flushing a toilet or doing some laundry, though I could run it through the filter.
I need to get another one.
Good idea about the bubblers. I'm also looking into picking up some packets of drink mixes, something along the line of instant tea, Tang or Kool-Aid, to help hide the taste of the water if it does taste strange.
I have no idea what stabilized oxygen is, though it seems to have worked for me (Granted, this is all tap water anyway, which is pretty clean to begin with). I was told put something in the water to kill whatever nasties are in it, and keep it out of the light.
