The Bushman 125 Gallon Plastic Emergency Water Storage Tank (MPN BM-30071) is a dedicated emergency-water storage vessel designed for pre-positioned potable-water reserves at homes, schools, healthcare facilities, and commercial operations.
Design
- NSF/ANSI 61–listed resin certified for drinking-water-system component service
- FDA-listed under 21 CFR 177.1520 for direct potable-water contact
- One-piece rotomolded HDPE — sealed shell maintains potable-water integrity in long-term standby storage
- UV-stabilized resin rated for outdoor and indoor preparedness installations
- Stackable configurations available — reduces per-tank freight 25-40% on multi-tank emergency-cache orders
Installation
Set on a level pad in a designated emergency-supply storage area. For potable preparedness service, rotate stored water per FEMA / Red Cross guidance (typically every 6-12 months for sealed containers). A 125-gallon reserve covers approximately 8-17 people for 14 days at the 1-gallon-per-person-per-day potable + sanitation standard, or 125 person-days at 1 gallon per day.
Common applications
- Senior living and assisted-care emergency potable-water reserve for resident shelter-in-place
- Residential household 14-day emergency-preparedness reserve per FEMA / Red Cross guidance
- Commercial business-continuity potable-water reserve for office, retail, and warehouse operations
- Healthcare facility emergency reserve for hospital, clinic, and long-term-care facilities
- School district potable reserve for K-12 and college-and-university campus emergency planning
- Manufacturing-plant OSHA-compliant safety-shower and eyewash potable supply reserve
Compatibility & compliance
Where carrying NSF/ANSI 61 listing and 21 CFR 177.1520 resin certification, the tank is approved for potable-water emergency-reserve service. Rotate stored water per FEMA / Red Cross guidance — typical 6-12 month rotation interval for sealed potable storage.
