Rain Water WarningWARNING: Please read!
Water stored in the URB is NOT FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION. It is very important when storing water, especially outside, that you take several precautions.
Be sure to secure the hose connected to your storage unit to prevent anyone from drinking from it.
Small children may be use to drinking from a hose in the yard so do not leave hoses connected to a water storage unit laying about.
Be sure to explain to any children that may be in your yard that the water barrel is for plants only.
Posting a sign next to or on your water barrel saying DO NOT DRINK is highly recommended.
The West Nile Virus is becoming a concern nation wide. This virus is typically spread by mosquitos
so be sure to secure the top of your water storage unit with screening or sealants as needed to prevent mosquitos from getting access.
DO NOT STORE WATER IN THE URB IN FREEZING WEATHER. Water expands a great deal when it freezes and will split the barrel. Be sure the barrel and any connecting hoses are completely empty of water in freezing weather.
