Water, water, nowhere??

40% of the water we use in our homes goes down the sink, shower and washer drains as "grey water." With a little low-cost on-site treatment, grey water can be made crystal clear (Grade A) and usable to flush toilets, water gardens & vegetables and wash cars. Smart states like Arizona and now Los Angeles, see grey water as a source of water. Here's how...
1. Build homes and other buildings with separate gray and black (toilet) wastewater systems - retrofitting is usually not economical.
2. Use a grey water processsor such as those Perpetual Water need to that turn grey water into crystal clear Grade A water must be installed and maintained for each home or building. The grey water is reprocessed into crystal clear water that is actually drinkable and re-routed back to toilets, garden or greenway watering and hoses.
Gray water reuse cuts residential area water consumption dramatically by recycling the gray water AND cuts the amount of sewage that needs to be processed by 2/3rds. That's smart.
