Good idea Neil and not one that has not crossed my mind. I've been
eyeing up the waste pipe from the washing machine and the downstairs
sink for a while. Grey water recycling is a definite thing for the
future. The much maligned Millenium Dome used recycled water from the
roof and elsewhere to flush the toilets.
I simply let gravity do it for me. The 15ft head (give or take) from the
bathroom was enough to work just like it was connected to the mains. Pour a
jug of water down the pipe and then quickly immerse in the bath. (Saves a
mouthfull of the kids bathwater Yeeuch!) Had a large rubber band holding
hose to the taps. Dash downstairs to water... or direct it into a butt. Got
LOTS of nasty looks from neighbours whilst happily hosing all round the
garden. ;o)
