Using gray water
Our washing machine is near an outside wall. I chiseled through the brick,
cut a hole in the inside wall, and installed a two inch PVC pipe about three feet tall. On the outside, the PVC pipe goes into a 55 gallon plastic barrel which lays on its side. I rigged up an attachment to the bottom of the barrel onto which I attached a hose. I run hose out about 150 feet to water Live Oak trees. The washer uses about 30 gallons per wash load, so rather than waste it in the septic system, I thought it was better to use for watering. We never use bleach in the wash, only Tide. My question is: Is there anything in the water that will damage the trees? Thanks, Bob |
