Selection and Operation

Congratulations, You’ve taken an important step towards envi- ronmentally friendly living with your purchase of the Grey Flow PS above ground Plug & Play greywater diversion and reuse system.

The Grey Flow PS Plug & Play was developed for above ground / partially buried installations and can be retrofitted into almost any house.

Please note: Water from the kitchen is not considered to be grey water, and is NOT suitable to use with the Grey Flow PS System.

Manual diversion of the greywater to sewer is achieved by turning off the manual valve separating the interceptor from the tank, or by turning off the power supply to the unit.

Requirements

The water discharge should be kept below mulch or soil (check for local state, municipal & council laws and regulations)

• 220 Volts power supply should be available.
• Any PVC plumbing connections should be performed by a license plumber.
• The Grey Flow PS must be turned off during wet conditions and any sign of accumulation or run-off.
• All minimum irrigation areas and set back distances must be in accordance to local regulations.
• Table 1.0 provides an estimated average volume of greywater that is generated in various parts of the house. Refer to your greywater state guidelines to evaluate your minimum requirements.
