  14. My Design

  15. My Water System Choice

  16. How My Design Works • My design will help Papua New Guinea , because it can catch the rain water , so they can wash their hands and have drinking water which will be purified.

  17. Instructions • Rain is collected through funnel . • Rain goes into tank . • Water is then filtered and recalculates through the tank by a bilge pump . • Solar panel charges the battery so it doesn’t go flat . • Pump turns on by a button , it also has a tap for easy access to get water .
