Unlike rainwater or condensate, greywater comes from the sink, shower, process rinse water, or pool backwash. Despite the origins, it can be a practical and helpful resource used to flush toilets, water the grass and plants, or for other non-potable applications. Here are five reasons why you should invest in one:
1. Provides a constant water supply – Greywater can provide a consistent supply of water for flushing toilets, which requires an average of 1.28 to 1.6 gallons of water per flush. With the right system, greywater could meet all of your toilet flushing needs.
2. Reduce reliance on municipal water – Installing a greywater treatment system can reduce the use of potable, municipal water. This not only lowers your water bill, but impacts the burden on the community’s public water supply.
3. Ease the burden on sewage system – A greywater harvesting system can reduce wastewater volume going to on-site treatment systems and sewers. So, those systems could work more efficiently, and flooding can be reduced.
4. Compliant with standards for effectiveness and safety – A high-quality system uses cutting-edge greywater filtration, sanitation and monitoring, treating to a standard that is safe for the public. Then, aesthetic and health concerns are eliminated as you meet regulatory requirements in your community. Consider a greywater harvesting system and filtration skid that are tested on the field and compliant to NSF/ANSI Standard 350.
