水是生存最基本需要。英國雖然水源穩定，但水管爆裂、洪水污染或嚴寒天氣都可能導致停水。本指南教你如何安全儲水、計算所需水量及應對停水情況。
Water is the most fundamental survival need. While UK water supply is generally reliable, burst pipes, flood contamination or severe weather can disrupt it. This guide covers safe water storage, calculating how much you need, and what to do when supply fails.
如自行裝自來水，安全期取決於容器、清潔、消毒及儲存環境，不能只靠固定月份判斷。標記日期並依水務公司、GOV.UK或製造商的最新指示處理。
For home-filled tap water, safety depends on the container, cleaning, sanitising and storage conditions—not a fixed number of months. Date the container and follow current water-company, GOV.UK or maker guidance.
存放於陰涼、避光、遠離化學品的地方。陽光及高溫會加速細菌生長。切勿與洗潔精、漂白水等放在同一格位。
Store in a cool, dark place away from chemicals. Sunlight and heat accelerate bacterial growth. Never store next to cleaning products or bleach.
每間英國供水商都有24小時緊急熱線，號碼在水費帳單或其官網。水務公司一般會按其政策及資源安排，在長時間停水時提供樽裝水或其他支援，特別是對已登記的優先客戶。訊息以編寫時為準，服務安排可能會變。
Every UK water supplier has a 24-hour emergency line, found on your bill or their website. Water suppliers may provide bottled water or alternative support during extended outages, especially for registered priority customers, in line with their duties and local arrangements. Service availability was correct at time of writing but may change.
天然水、洪水及受污染供水可能含微生物、化學品或其他污染物；一般濾水器或淨水片未必能處理。使用原廠密封水，並嚴格依水務公司及官方通知行事；如有「煮沸」「不可飲用」或「不可使用」通知，各自要求不同。查看三類後備淨水用品及購買選擇 →
Natural water, floodwater and a contaminated supply may contain microbes, chemicals or other hazards that ordinary filters or tablets do not remove. Use commercially sealed water and follow the water company and official notice exactly; “boil”, “do not drink” and “do not use” notices require different actions. Compare three backup treatment types and buying options →
