It is the main thing. From your roof, according to the meters that you have, there are tables in which you can measure with that amount of roof that you have, how much water you can capture, right? Yes. So, from your roof, which is your area from which you capture, we build some descents. These descents go through a series of filters.

that attack physical, let's say, physical patterns, such as leaves that stay on the roof, dust, all this part, and then other more sophisticated ones that can be, let's say, increasing the level of purification according to the contamination, right? Because it is also very contextual.

It is not the same rainwater that falls in a rural area, for example, here in the city, or in an industrial area, right? That can be much more contaminated, right? Entonces se le van sumando filtros de hojas, por ejemplo, carbón activado, rayos UV, o sea, según el nivel que tú necesites de purificación.

Y eso cae a tu cisterna y de tu cisterna ya con la bomba lo subes como si fuera el agua que entra de tu, de tu, de la toma pública, ¿no?

Podrías, ¿no? ¿Cuánto dura el agua en una cisterna? Pues digamos que la mitad del año aquí en Ciudad de México tú puedes tener agua de lluvia, vivir de agua de lluvia, ¿no? Es más o menos como que...

Claro. Bueno, justo para empezar con el Tlaloque, ¿no? El Tlaloque justo es como una de nuestras tecnologías estrellas que realmente su función es muy básica, que es la separación de las primeras lluvias. Las primeras lluvias son las más... dirty, right? They are the ones that clean the roof, they are the ones that, well, when it is very contaminated, well, the environment is cleaned, right?

So the Tlaloque what it does is receive and capture all these first rains, let's say it contains them, that first water is discarded, which can be used to water pastures, for example, or to clean the floors. Ya después de esta primera carga, digamos, que es la que ocupa y que tú desechas, el agua ya viene mucho más limpia, ¿no? De por sí, ya después de esta medición que tiene, ¿no?

Ya después cruza a lo largo de unos filtros. From these filters, it goes directly, that is, already filtered, it goes directly to your storage, which can be, well, a tinaco or it can be your cistern, right? And it enters as if it already came directly from the street, right? And from there, with a pump, you pump it to your house and that already enters as if it were entering the street, right?
