Recycle Your Household Waste Water
Gray water is the water that has already gone through your household system, through your washing machine, bathroom sink, showers and tubs. It makes up 50% of the waste water produced in your house. (Water that has toxins or chemicals in it — kitchen sinks, toilets and dishwashers — is not gray water).
Gray water is safe to use on gardens and lawns, and it’s easy to set-up a collection system so that you can recycle it yourself.
Oh, and by easy, I mean you make a phone call to a professional. You don’t want to end up like those guys on that “World’s Worst Handy-man Show” do you?!
According to The Eagle, the proper steps one must make to install a gray water system are:
- Contact your county health department to learn regulations or restrictions on graywater systems.
- Ask your plumber for advice on how to construct a system with your household’s plumbing system.
- Hire a licensed wastewater system professional or build it yourself.
