I am trying to prepare for the possibility of being without water for an extended period of time. After Hurricane Ivan, we were without power and, therefore, water for 80 hours. At that time we were on well water (electric pump), but we are now on county water, which is more reliable. Nevertheless, if we have some sort of major disaster, I'd like to be able to have a safe source of drinking water. We live on a lake, and I am interested in finding a system or method for purifying this water without using heat. Could someone share information about the methods available?
