FAQ
Storage Duration & Capacity
How long can stored water last in the AquaPod? The AquaPod is designed for temporary emergency water storage, with a recommended storage duration of 8-16 weeks. This timeframe ensures optimal water quality and bladder performance.
What is the recommended storage capacity? The recommended capacity is 65 gallons, which is optimized for standard bathtub sizes. While some larger tubs can accommodate up to 100 gallons, we recommend the 65-gallon limit to ensure proper fit and safety.
