I thought I should share this with those who might have similar issues with having clean and drinkable water at home. Got tired of constantly buying drinkable water or waiting for a nice neighbor to help...

This will be especially useful for those who have discoloured (brown) well or borehole water due to high level of sediment or whatever...


What you need:

Get a plumber to install 2 or 3 filters close to the storage tank (outside)

Get a water purifier (any effective type, I got the alkaline type)


See pictures below...

(Of course, the hassle there will be maintenance: clean/change the filters (the carbon one, black, can be washed and reused for sometime) every 2 or 3 weeks; wash the purifier regularly as well)

God bless

Op, thank you for sharing the above information with us. I would advise that the filters are painted BLACK to prevent the penetration of sunlight into the filter.

In case you do not want to paint the filters black, kindly sew a tarpaulin which you will use as a covering for the filters.

Doing the above will prevent algae growth

You need the protective jacket to protect the plastic from Photodegradation and extending the lifespan of the adsorbents

Bullshit....if u got well. Well buy satchet water or cway.

If u got borehole. After 7months,all the filters will become black,clogged and dirty.in the long run,it's expensive to maintain

Hello there...

It depends on the sizes... 20+ or 30+ liters. And price varies.

I got mine from jumia in January (32 liters, it's around 55k). You can simply order too. Smaller sizes should be around 30k+. There are several sellers there. And you may check konga and temu too if you want.

If necessary go on jumia or others and search water filter purifier or alkaline water purifier, it should show you options and prices available...
