how much water needed for cooking and washing
My kitchen plumbing broke, we are putting off fixing it for the moment so I am using a 5 gallon bucket and recycling my water outside. So I am looking at how much water I use for dish washing/cooking at least 10 gallons a day sometimes 15 gallons.Thatâs a lot of water. That includes washing and rinsing. So really look closely at how much water you and your family are using to have a better idea of how much youâll need.Also stock up on wet wipes Aldiâs in our area sells a pack of 56 for 85 cents. A normally active person needs to drink at least a half gallon of water every day. Hot environments can double that, and children, nursing mothers and ill people will need even more. â¢ Additional water should be stored for use in food preparation and hygiene. â¢ Store at least one gallon of water per person, per day.
