Back up is not restricted to just the drain lines! If houses up hill from you have issues in their water supply, it can drain down into your water supply. Your house can also pollute others. The county government had a display at the county fair one year about various check valves and layout for preventing all this. I am sure you can get free info from the county water people.
I don't want Poop in my house!!
There is a thread about how long the water will flow out of the faucets after SHTF. Someone said something about only a matter of time when the electricity stops that we may start seeing the sewage back-up thru the shower, toilet etc..How does one stop this? What can you put over the shower drain or toilet. I don't want poop in my house. That is one stinky mess I dont want to clean up. Is there anything I can prepare right now to put over the drain? Im thinking maybe a 5 gallon bucket filled with cement to sit over the drain. But what about the toilet? Kitchen drains? Help
