Description
Grey water from the washing machine, bath and shower are collected in a holding tank placed below ground level. The water is piped to the holding tank and when full the excess water bypasses the tanks and flows into the gully trap in the normal manner.

An aeration device and a flow filter seperate the majority of soaps and lint from the water before it enters the holding tanks.

Excess soaps are directed into the gully trap and solids are held in the filter until cleaned out. The water in the end holding tank is then piped to the toilet system by a 12 volt electric pump which turns on when the toilet is flushed.

A valve allows the toilet water to return to the mains water supply if required. This could be when the filter requires cleaning, excess use of the toilet is required (such as a large number of visitors), or any other emergency.
