Pila


Here is the Low Tech design, i have the chances to talk to the Garifuna commited, and we decide to go low tech , since we are so closer to the ocean , Water tower whit Pump.
will required somebody give continuos check and haves to have some knoledges, and also the metal will rust very easy in a year o two.
we decide go whit at Pila a large scuared cement container whit elevation.
to help whit the presure for the toilets to work.
no worry about parts o pieces rust.
