Bathtub Water Storage Systems
Bathtub water storage systems provide a fast way to create a large emergency water reserve when a disruption is expected. Food-grade liners designed to fit inside a standard bathtub can hold dozens of gallons of clean water, making them particularly useful before hurricanes, severe storms, planned outages, or other events that could interrupt the municipal water supply.
Unlike filling a bare bathtub, purpose-built systems keep stored water separated from soap residue and other contaminants while making it easier to dispense when needed. Compact when unused but capable of storing significant amounts of water, they can be a valuable addition to a household emergency water plan.
AquaPod Kit 2.0
The AquaPod Kit 2.0 is a compact emergency water-storage system that transforms a standard bathtub into a protected freshwater reservoir. Made from food-grade, BPA-free, FDA-compliant materials, the bladder keeps stored water separated from the bathtub surface and can accommodate 65–100 gallons, although the manufacturer recommends about 65 gallons for most standard tubs.
Designed for situations such as hurricanes, severe storms, water-main breaks, and extended outages, the AquaPod can be set up in about 15 minutes without tools and includes a siphon pump for convenient dispensing. When not in use, it stores compactly, making it an excellent high-capacity water solution for households that don't have room for large permanent storage tanks.
WaterBOB Emergency Drinking Water Storage
The waterBOB Emergency Water Storage System transforms a standard bathtub into a large emergency water reserve, holding up to 100 gallons of fresh water. Its heavy-duty, food-grade liner keeps water isolated from soap residue, dirt, and other contaminants that may be present in the bathtub, making it a practical option when storms or other disruptions threaten the normal water supply.
Designed for quick deployment, the waterBOB attaches to the bathtub faucet and typically fills in 20–30 minutes. An included siphon pump makes dispensing water into pitchers or containers easy, while its compact size means it can remain stored until needed. It's an especially useful last-minute, high-capacity backup for households preparing for hurricanes, severe weather, water-main breaks, and other emergencies.
