Purified water should never be exposed to direct sunlight. Purified water must be kept out of direct sunlight. Plastic bags or bottles can be used if you don’t have enough containers. Keep the water chilled at 4°C (40°F). Avoid freezing the water to prevent ice crystals from forming.

For every 2 gallons water, add 1 teaspoon of iodine. Before adding the iodine, stir well.
