1000 days?

Why does this say that it will last for 1000 days when you need 1 gallon per person per day. That would be 500 days, which is still a long time.

From The Ready Store:

1 Gallon is recommended for drinking and hygiene, but if you only drink 1/2 gallon (8 cups of water) per day than it would last for 1,000 days. That is why it says Drinking Water Supply of 1,000 days.

Thanks,

I came very close to ordering one of these, until I realized there is no way I could get it in my house. Let alone down into my basement. Perfect for people with a walk out basement and french doors. And for me, the 250 gallon tank is to high. What a pity.

Your body will lose, on average, 2.5 liters (or 2/3 of a gallon), of water everyday. However, your body can only handle a loss of about 10 - 22 percent of your water weight before it becomes fatal. This happens after about 3 days of not drinking water.

What better way to prepare for the future than by providing your family with a large supply of emergency water storage. It's recommended that each member of your family has at least 1 gallon of water per day for your emergency preparations. That's why this 500 gallon tank is so great! It helps you meet those goals!

This giant tank doesn't actually take up a lot of space when considering how much it holds. The tank weights only 110 lbs without water. However, you'll be able to store over 4,000 pounds of water in a 4' x 4' x 5 1/2' area!

The walls are 1/4" thick and made of high-quality, food-grade plastic. That means that you won't have to worry about chemicals or other contaminants reaching your water supply.

NOTE II: This shipping company will call a couple days in advance to set up a time so that someone will be available when they drop it off. Delivery will be to your curb, you will need to be able to move it which is accomplished easily with 1-2 people by tipping it part way on a bottom edge and rolling it to the desired location.
