Shelf Life & Maintenance

Emergency food and water have manufacturer-designated shelf lives that vary by component and storage conditions. Check the individual product packaging for expiration or replacement dates.

Replace used, damaged or expired components promptly so the kit remains ready for use.

What is a 10-Person Shelter-in-Place Emergency Kit?

The 10-Person Shelter-in-Place Emergency Kit provides emergency food, water, first aid, respiratory protection, sanitation, lighting, communication and temporary sealing supplies for a group of up to 10 people who may need to remain indoors during an emergency.

When would a shelter-in-place kit be used?

Sheltering in place may be appropriate when conditions outside a building could present a greater risk than remaining indoors. Examples can include hazardous outdoor air, certain severe weather events, infrastructure emergencies or other incidents in which authorities or an organization's emergency plan direct occupants to remain inside.

Does the kit include emergency food and water?

Yes. The kit includes 10 SOS 2400-calorie emergency food bars and 60 emergency drinking water pouches.

How much food is included per person?

The kit provides one 2400-calorie emergency food bar for each of 10 people. The food is intended as an emergency ration and should be incorporated into the organization's overall emergency preparedness and shelter-in-place planning.

Does the kit include N95 masks?

Yes. Ten N95 respirator masks are included, providing one mask for each person. Appropriate respiratory protection depends on the specific hazard, and occupants should follow instructions from public-safety authorities during an emergency.

What are the plastic sheeting and duct tape for?

Plastic sheeting and duct tape can be used when an emergency plan or public-safety instructions call for temporarily reducing outside-air infiltration around doors, windows or other openings. The kit includes a 10' × 25' roll of 3-mil plastic sheeting and a 60-yard roll of duct tape.

Does the kit include sanitation supplies?

Yes. The kit includes a 5-gallon pail, emergency toilet seat/lid, toilet paper, biohazard bags and cleansing towelettes to provide basic emergency sanitation capability.

Does the kit include an emergency radio?

Yes. The kit includes a NOAA emergency radio with AM/FM reception, solar and hand-crank power capability and an LED flashlight.

Why is the kit packed in a wheeled duffel?

The wheeled duffel keeps group shelter-in-place supplies together while making the kit easier to move within a facility. This can be useful when supplies are stored in one location but occupants need to relocate to a designated shelter area.

Where should the kit be stored?

Store the kit in a known, readily accessible indoor location near the people or shelter area it is intended to support. Avoid locations that may become inaccessible during an emergency.
