rain water for gray water use
(OP)
hello all,
any opinion in using rain water for gray water use (eg. toilet flush, watering garden) in commercial/office buildings.
does it need treatment first before using (like in STP)?
thanks in advance for all your feedback

For outdoor irrigation, filtration is desirable to protect emitter heads from clogging. I've had jurisdictions require disinfection, although some don't require it for drip irrigation, only for spray irrigation.

my dog drinks rainwater out of the gutter in the street all the time, prefers it to the clean stuff in his bowl...
Probably as it is not loaded with chemicals used in the treatment plants.

We are in property development and support initiatives to conserve electricity and water. So in our current planning we are considering using rain water as "gray water" but so far still undecided on a system to use it.
