24/7 drinking water supply - Nakuru WaterKiosk®
Nakuru is one of the fastest growing town in Kenya with a population of over 2million people. In spite being so vibrant with business Nakuru is heavily dominated with lower class people who depended on borehole water which isn’t fit for human consumption. Many of the residents have brown teeth due to the minerals found in their water.
Nakuru WaterKiosK® is located along free area road. It’s located within the P.C.E.A church compound along perimeter wall, making it accessible to public. The desalination machine installed produces 20,000 litres per day and is run by a 9.8kW solar array mounted on top of the WaterKiosk
