Theme Analysis

Sometimes people forget to close the tap and that results in more wastage of

• water. As water is a precious resource, one can create and design a water tap

that saves water and controls unnecessary wastage of water. Users have the most influence at the household level and can experiment with strategies to develop water saving habits to implement outside of the home. Household water use is a testing ground for creating the strategies and social behaviors necessary for water use reduction outside.

Analysis(contd.)

The water we use for our personal hygiene and for various domestic requirements must be in reasonable quantities according to requirement. Using too much water for our shower or while brushing our teeth can be avoided. Taps must be closed when we are not using them. Likewise, if taps or water pipes are found to be leaking, we must repair them right away. As per the statistics we can save water by optimum usage for specific purpose:

Concept Sketch

Objective

▸ This design will optimize the use of water and thus will help in saving water.

It will also make a person conscious as the monitor screen will show the amount of water used.

▸ Multi-functional tap for different purposes . ▸ It is aesthetic in design, safe to use and will be of low cost. ▸ To make everyone conscious about the depletion of precious natural resources. ▸ In the model, base will be made up of plastic and top will be made up of

stainless steel. It will not rust and thus will increase the life span of the product.

▸ Dimensions will be as follows:

Height->152 cm Bottom radius -> 43 cm Material used - Stain less steel and rubber spray

Model/Design Features

Proposed Design

Water & Soap Button There

are two buttons on the tap which when pressed will release water and Foaming soap. This allows users to only user water for rinsing instead

• f

soaping up and then rinsing.

LCD Screen & Vibratory Beep

There is a LCD screen on top which tell the time duration till which the water is going to come (water usage) and a buzzer which will beep if user chooses extra water option from rotatable dial.

Rotatable Dial:

This features will limit the water flow according to the average usage of water needed for various activities like hand wash, facewash, brushing etc.

Normal & Mist Nozzles

Spray button is used which when pressed, gives water in the form of mist and hence saves a lot of water. Mist nozzles (in centre and 3 in total) will work when the user will press water button. If the user will press soap, then normal water nozzles (right side, 30 in total) will work along with soap nozzles from which soap will come out. It is located at left side of the design (see image, 9 in total).

Sensor

The temperature and heat sensor is designed to make the tap water flow when sensing average human body temperature (37 C). Temperature controller will release the hot or cold water depending upon user input.
