What is involved in recycling "one of the gray water" from one's home, to use for irrigation?
Gray water is water used and goes down the drain of your kitchen and bathroom, shower, and your dishwasher. I heard that water makes excellent irrigation water for your lawn and gardens, if you can capture. That way, you are not wasting clean, potable water in their gardens. The problem is – my house is set in the traditional way, where all the gray water runs into the sewer. Is it possible / economically viable to adapt, or must I wait until my house just built next door?
just ask a plumber. I think there is a "code", especially in counties and cities and that may or not be allowed to do that through the piping system. I know that in time of my grandparents had a receptacle under the sink like a big bucket that had outdoor plants with water. It would seem extremely heavy outdoor drag, however. Perhaps it is easier to open the kitchen window or a door near the kitchen you can barely swing your bucket of water and grass, without going outdoors. When I was a kid my job was to wash the sidewalks, but would use a mild detergent to wash first, then rinse …. and all that would water the grass on the sides, but the other good thing is that it gets diarrhea soap mistakes and errors kept the house as well. The water returning to the county system is treated and recycled so if it is thought to be lost, so it's not, it is fair that the county is doing instead of you. Then the county or city is sold back to you as recycled water for your lawn. Maybe just using less water in the showers can help you save money you could invest in a water recycling program in the county.
