Ive got more free buckets than I need. Acme bakery keeps calling me to pick up more! It saves them from having to wash them out. The employees appreciate less work. Just go into your grocery store and ask. Shoprite didnt help but Acme was more than willing to unload them!I got the kit as well and it looks great.
Thinking about getting a 2nd.
How did you get the free bucket?
Just a correction... It is GUARANTEED for a million gallons. That doesn't mean that it is "good" for a million gallons or will even last a million gallons. Basically it is a lifetime warranty. It is not a rating or estimate of how many gallons this will actually filter.I have one of these also. Good for 1,000,000 gallons of water. I think that should do just fine! ...
Yes, you need food grade buckets. I thought those buckets looked like Home Depot brand, but wasnt sure. I believe he is in a third world country, so the water should go pretty fast! I dont know how much harm could come to water being in this kind of bucket if its emptied quickly. So he made 3 mistakes, Non food grade, gasket on wrong side, and putting filtered water back in dirty bucket!Wasn't the guy in the video using Home Depot buckets? I thought they weren't food grade. Do you need food grade buckets to filter water?
I thought I saw him put the water back in the same bucket, but wasn't quite sure. Seems like an obvious mistake for someone that took the time to buy a filter in the first place.Yes, you need food grade buckets. I thought those buckets looked like Home Depot brand, but wasnt sure.

I've had a hard time finding bpa free food grade buckets, so i finally found my source- arizona ice tea bottles. They are pretty dang strong.
took me all of 5 min to assemble/build, and it works mint, no leaks.
