KEY FINDINGS & CONCLUSIONS
• Feasible and effective way to reduce domestic water demand
• Low energy consumption
• Water quality of “off the shelf” treatment is improving
• Less maintenance than before, but proper maintenance must be performed
• High installation costs greywater reuse is applicable for areas with high water rates
• Generally satisfied users!

FURTHER RESEARCH
• Effects of greywater reuse on flush valves
• Accurate collection & validation of water balance data
• Water consumption of different toilet designs

LESSONS LEARNED
45M. Craig - WSI – October 2015
• 10 day purge cycle seems to be optimum for water quality and water savings
• Recent updates to filter mechanism have eliminated calcium/soap scum fouling
• More frequent / short duration chlorination cycles is better
• 316 Marine Grade Stainless fasteners required where chlorine is present
• Allowing for sedimentation removal solved many flush valve issues

STRESSED SITUATIONS
VACATIONS
• Ideally would have recorded planned vacations before hand
• Only went in to vacation mode 2 of 5 timeso Users turned off watero Program issues
• 6 users = very satisfied• 2 users = somewhat satisfied• 2 users = neutral• 1 user = somewhat unsatisfied
POWER OUTAGE
• Battery in controller, but it never worked
• Generally the system would restart and function when the power came back on….but sometimes required a manual restart

GREYWATER VS. RAINWATER
Greywater• Benefits
– Consistent water supply
• Drawbacks– Requires more treatment
than RW– Potential for more
maintenance– Not seamless WQ yet
Rainwater• Benefits
– Cleaner water than GW (less treatment required)
– More accepted by users (?)
• Drawbacks– Crosses building
interior/exterior– Inconsistent water supply

SINGLE FAMILY VS MULTI-UNIT
• People are more likely to reuse if it’s just their wastewater.
• Less transfer of germs, higher risk for Multi-unit
• Maintenance is on homeowners…good/or bad
• Financially more feasible at a bigger scaleo Apartment buildings can be designed / retrofitted
easier

REDUCED FLOW THROUGH WW PIPES
• Penn et al. (2013)– Modelled reduced flow and low-flush toilets– Not likely that greywater reuse will lead to
blockage in existing sewers– Also allows sewers in new construction to be
built with smaller diameters
