Thanks igotspurs. That does help. We used to be just on city water and septic and when a tornado took out the pumping station in the next neighborhood, some of them that was on well water and septic had no water for 14 days as well as electric gone. It was during a hurricane. We were still on septic but did not loose water as it was city water. We did loose electric for 14 days as well. We still have the septic tank and I am thinking we might be able to hook back up if anything happens a seal off the plumbing from the street. Something we need to check on and also to see if septic lines would still be any good or not. My daughter who lived in another city lost her city water for 14 days. But they did have a pool and was able to flush toilets. They came to our house for showers and take back water for bathing, drinking and doing dishes. They had bottled water for drinking. Newborn baby and 2 older children as well when that happened to her. We all made out good though.
