In our previous blog, “Blast from the past, that little checklist after the holidays“, Bosman plumbing jumped back to one of our first blogs for 2021, in our Exploring Home Resolutions series. We hit the ground running, completed our annual water and sanitation fixtures checklist with a gold star, and we’re all set for our journey, excited and expectant of what 2022 will hold.

For March, we will be exploring the “what If’s”, expanding our knowledge or the interworking of our home’s water and sanitation fixtures.

Education is key. There is no need to fumble about in the dark when disaster hits.

As per World Health Organization: “water is essential for life, health, and human dignity. In extreme emergencies, there may not be sufficient water available to meet basic needs and in these cases, supplying a minimum level of safe drinking water for survival is of critical importance. Insufficient water and the consumption of contaminated water are usually the first and main causes of ill health to affect displaced populations during and after a disaster.”

We have all asked that nagging question, how much water should be stored for emergencies?

The priority of water should be calculated for each family, bearing in mind their cultural beliefs, composition, and basic needs. One family might need more than others, as young children and women might need a more significant amount. Don’t forget the furkids, as they would need access to clean drinking water as well.

Bosman Plumbing recommends 10 -15L per person/ per day, including water for drinking, cooking and basic sanitation. It’s important to remember not to store more than you would be able to use, as even bottled water would have an expiration date, and unfiltered/unprocessed water could carry water-borne diseases. The best way to avoid spoilage is to store filtered/processed water in a cool dark space and rotate and use it during the year. Alternatively, a small amount of drinking water can be kept aside, and other water filtration devices can be used to treat water.

In our previous blog, “Your journey is our journey“, we introduced Bosman’s new concept blog for 2022. With the year being all bright and shiny, lest not forget our lessons from 2021 and what our helping hand Bosman Plumbing have taught us. Have you completed your annual water and sanitation fixtures check yet? If you’re a first-timer, why not consider an onsite inspection?

Here’s a reminder of our shot checklist for ease of use; pop a copy in your yearly planner. A short walkthrough and a quick assessment. That’s all you need for peace of mind that you are set up for the best 2022 journey.

Geysers – know your Manufacturer Code, Serial, and size. Check support brackets, geyser blankets and drip trays. Stay awhile and admire the local wildlife. As always, don’t feed the roof pets!

Bath, mixers, and drains – Check seals and waterproofing. Check wet spots. Make sure mixers function correctly; we do not like our gland nuts leaking.

Sanitaryware age and function – broken, chipped and stained fixtures age your home and reduce your investment in it. Make a note of future fixtures needing repair or replacement.

With your checklist done, have a cold beverage and pat yourself on the back.

A gold star to those that have already completed their checklist. Watch out for more “blasts for the past” blogs, as we will periodically share check-in and check off lists for Autumn, Winter, Spring and Summer in our new blogs for 2022.
