<br/><br/> This study aims to innovate the use of solar energy to power an alkaline filtration<br/>system for deep well for the people from far-flung areas who are in need of potable and<br/>safe water yet be reached by the civilization. The Solar Powered Filtration System for<br/>Deep Well was designed featuring a solar panel to produce energy and a battery to store<br/>electrical energy, a motor pump and water tank to draw out enough water from the deep<br/>well for reservoir, and a filtration system to secure safe water free of contaminants. It<br/>was developed and fabricated using the local available materials including the solar<br/>panel, battery, motor-water pump, water tank, and alkaline water filter together with<br/>metal sheets, automatic pressure switch, tubes, and wires. Similarly, it was tested for<br/>functionality and reliability in terms of energy supply using the solar panel with 250V,<br/>motor capacity for water pumping with 1 HP, and water pH level with 9.18 pH using the<br/>alkaline water filter. Lastly, the prototype was evaluated using a modified questionnaire<br/>with the 30 different evaluators to determine the acceptability of the prototype in terms<br/>of functionality, aesthetic design, durability, workability, economy, and safety and were<br/>given the general weighted average mean of 4.43 and interpreted as Very Acceptable.<br/>Furthermore, it is suggested to add a two or more solar panels to prolong the service of<br/>the prototype with ample amount of energy. The community can also jointly work to<br/>device one same prototype for their community.
