Grey Water Recycling
Grey water recycling is a process in which wash water is taken from sources such as the tub, shower, and optionally the washing machine, filtered and treated, and re-used again for the flushing of toilets. In some areas grey water is also acceptable for use in irrigation for watering of plants and flowers.
Based on statistics about 70% of all water used in the home would be classified as grey water. There are some considerations, however, that should be made when considering using grey water recycling.
