Who made this
Built by the DisasterPrepCalc team, the people behind the free water, food, generator, firewood and go-bag calculators on this site, from FEMA and Ready.gov, American Red Cross, CDC and USDA guidance, Consumer Product Safety Commission generator warnings and product manuals. Researched, not hands-on testing of every product and not professional advice.
Not professional advice. In an emergency, call 911 and follow your local officials. Run generators outdoors only, 20 ft from the house, and have a licensed electrician connect any generator to house wiring.

Questions
How do I get it?
Pay on the secure Stripe checkout and you land on your download page: the full PDF, a ZIP of every sheet as its own printable page, two spreadsheets that open in Google Sheets, Excel or Numbers, and the original handbook and worksheets. Bookmark that page to download again later.
Does it work on my phone?
Yes. The PDF reads on any phone or tablet, and the spreadsheets open in the free Google Sheets app, so your rotation dates and generator numbers go with you. Print the plan, the wallet cards and the outage card: in an outage, paper works when phones die.
I already use the free calculators. What does this add?
The calculators give you one number at a time. The planner is where your household's numbers live together, with dates: who needs what, how much water and food you have and when it rotates, what the generator runs and the fuel it takes, and what to do hour by hour when the power goes out.
I bought the Master Planner before. Do I get this?
Yes. Your old download page now takes you to the new one, with the original handbook and worksheets still included. If you cannot find it, use the contact form with the email you paid with.
Is this professional or medical advice?
No. It is researched planning guidance from FEMA, the Red Cross, CDC, USDA and product manuals. Follow your local officials in an emergency, ask your doctor and pharmacist about medicines, and have a licensed electrician connect any generator to your house.
What if it is not what I expected?
Use the whole kit. If it doesn't help, fill in the refund form within 30 days and you get every dollar back. No questions asked. Refund form.
