Ease the Burden on Your Septic System with the Aqua2use Greywater Filtration System
If you have a septic system in your home, you may already be familiar with some of the problems which can occur. Things like backups and clogged drains can lead to septic system failure, and the hazards associated with a total system collapse can even be fatal. A grey water filtration system from Water Wise Group can relieve some of the strain placed on your septic system, while saving you up to 40,000 gallons of water per year in the process.
What Is a Greywater Filtration System?
Grey water is the water produced during daily household activities like bathing or washing clothes. A greywater system filters the water using a highly effective multi-stage filtration system to remove lint, hair and impurities. Instead of traveling through your septic system, the filtered grey water is diverted to flower beds and gardens, creating an efficient irrigation system.
Greywater Is Safe for Plants and Vegetables
You don' have to worry about grey water systems harming your plants or vegetables. In fact, the soap levels at the dilutions from baths or showers actually add nutrients to your garden's soil. If you're using a washing machine as your grey water source, simply switch to a low or no phosphorous detergent for maximum safety.
Greywater Filtration Systems Are Easy to Install
A licensed plumber or contractor can easily do the job for you, saving you time, effort and possibly multiple trips to the hardware store.
