This is the only comprehensive book I know of on the subject, and in this fifth and expanded edition, Art Ludwig explains how to choose, build, and use a variety of simple greywater systems. There are clear drawings for sending washing machine water into the garden (with or without a drum), for putting diversion valves on bathtubs or showers, for creating “mulch basins,” for ultra-simple setups like “Garden Hose Through the Bathroom,” and “Dishpan Dump (Bucketing)” -- the latter of which I've been practicing lately to the great benefit of both septic system and compost piles.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.kk.org/cooltools/archives/003800.php"><div align="center"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/www.kk.org/img/DC9FCC04-3BC2-4BF8-9D56-8BDAF5B83B9A" alt="oasis-greywater2.jpg" /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.kk.org/cooltools/archives/003800.php"><div align="center"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/www.kk.org/img/E1100268-CB64-4A73-A152-7B2F281F3B1E" alt="oasis-greywater5s.jpg" /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.kk.org/cooltools/archives/003800.php"><P><SPAN class="mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-image"><IMG height="429" width="300" class="mt-image-none" src="http://www.kk.org/cooltools/oasis-greywater3sm.jpg" alt="oasis-greywater3sm.jpg" /></SPAN>
