Greywater Solutions from Greywater Reuse Systems
Product/Service Name
Partial Greywater Dispersal with GRS SupaFlow System; GRS WaterSave System
Greywater is household wastewater that comes from the bath, shower, bathroom wash basins, washing machines, and laundry trough.
GRS SupaFlow SystemReuse your Laundry and Bathroom water into the garden via sub- strata dripline irrigation.Greywater from the laundry or bathroom is directed to a dual filter. After filtration, the greywater is pumped and then permitted to flow through a dripper system which enables plants to uptake nutrients and water.
Advantages
- No chemicals required
- Low maintenance
- Easily installed in homes (new or existing)
- Efficient use of water by even distribution to plant roots
- Each SupaFlow model comes complete with installation instructions and a maintenance schedule
- The filter bags will need cleaning (typically) every few weeks
- Optional provision for top up from scheme water
Models
- GRS SupaFlow (standard model)
- GRS SupaFlow (monitored model)
GRS WaterSave System - WaterSave Tank Dripper
The system is designed for partial greywater dispersal - such as the reuse of wastewater from a laundry or bathroom
The GRS Watersave Tank Dripper System comprises four parts.
- Greywater is diverted from the normal waste stream
- Passes through a sedimentation tank
- Into a pump chamber
- The wastewater is dispersed throughout an interconnecting substrata dripper system
GRS Tank System
- Greywater passes into a settling or sedimentation tank
- Tanks are usually made from concrete or polyethylene
- A larger tank, typically 1200 x 1200 mm, will need to be used for larger households and greywater volumes
Dripper System
Pump tank
- After the greywater has been allowed to settle in a concrete or polyethylene tank, it passes into a pump chamber or tank
- This has to have at least 250 L capacity
- A sump (submersible) pump with float switch, such as those produced by Pumpmaster, Onga or Grunfos, will be used
- A water level warning device will be fitted to enable an audible and visible signal to be heard and seen if the pump should fail
- A 240V power source may need to be installed nearby to operate the pump
Irrigation System
- The recycled greywater will then be pumped to areas of the garden through standard irrigation pipe to a network of substrata drippers
- Purpose built biomatt filter is also placed before the dripper system to remove any hair or other solids which may be inadvertently pumped from the tank
- A rotary K-Rain distribution valve is used to shift water to different irrigation zones
- Each line (lateral) has either a manual or automatic flushing valve on the end of the line to flush residual solids
- At least one vacuum breaker is installed at the highest point in the irrigation layout to prevent problems with wastewater dispersal.
- A 100 mm layer of mulch is to be placed on top of the irrigation dripper pipe
Currently, the WA Government offers a rebate of up to $500 for any approved greywater system. Please visit our website or contact us for more information on our wide range of water saving solutions.
