The safe and clean water is necessary to the most of rural community. Slow sand system was proven to be sustainable and reliable drinking water treatment The majority of Sambo community using river as a source their daily activity. The water of the river containing a very high degree of contamination. The purpose of this study is to determine the model of Wisolo River Water treatment in order to obtain Clean Water in Sambo Village and then checked whether the physical content of the river water meets the water quality standard. From the results of the study using 3 (three) models of Wisolo River water filter processing layer variations, which are most ideal to use and meet the physical quality standards of clean water based on the Regulation of the Minister of Health of the Republic of Indonesia, the layer variations in model I, namely with successive material composition from bottom to top: gravel = 20 cm, palm fiber = 20 cm, and sand = 50 cm.
