A ceramic pot filter consists of a flowerpot-shaped pot, made from a porous ceramic material. Water poured into a ceramic pot filter percolates through the pot material, and is collected in a second container.

The Tamale rural has attracted 8.13% for a population of 61,175. Although Tamale is a metropolitan area but it has almost the same features as many districts in the region. Many districts in the region by coverage have attracted up to between 37% -94% water sanitation and hygiene facilities. Therefore we need to plan with the Tamale metropolitan Assembly to serve the deprived communities. ]
