The Kisii Filter bucket has been developed in collaboration with the Rural Water Development (RWD) Project in Kisii, Western Kenya in 2003, as a response to the low quality of household water and water from springs and wells in that area.

====Maintenance====

[[Image:Kisii filters.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Pozzani replacement candles can be ordered for about 4,0 US$ for NGOs. PhotoBuy: [http://www.handpumppozzani.orgco.uk/kisii/ handpumppozzani.co.org/kisiiuk.] For more details and prices, contact: [email protected].]]

The filter system needs only a minimum of maintenance (regular cleaning of the outside of the ceramic element and inspection and cleaning of the inside of the buckets). The filter candle can be used for six month up to several years, depending on the quality of the water to be filtered.
