A custom designed greywater system by Clivus Mountain is ideal for irrigation and fertilization!
Because of the low level of nutrients greywater contains compared with total wastewater, greywater (water from sinks, showers, laundry, dishwashers) is ideal for irrigation and fertilization of land plants such as turf, trees, and ornamentals.
The Clivus Greywater System consists of a dosing basin and irrigation chambers. Greywater flows to the dosing basin, where it is collected and stored for not more than a day. A level switch activates the dosing basin’s effluent pump or gravity siphon (where sufficient slope is available), and greywater is moved to the irrigation chambers.
The irrigation chamber is a half-round pipe of 8-12” in diameter, placed within the root zone. The number of irrigation chambers and their lengths are determined by greywater volume, soil characteristics, and site design. Because of the high level of soil activity in the root zone, no filtration is necessary before the greywater enters the chambers.
All Clivus Greywater systems are custom-designed based on site conditions. Click "Add to Cart" below and we will send information to get started.
