The simple way to save money and recycle greywater for garden irrigation, (not your vegetable garden) or if you have a tiny home this is the answer to your greywater problem.
Greywater is the wastewater from your washing machine, shower, bath, and basins. If you would like to connect your kitchen sink, you will need to connect our grease trap to remove fats, oils, grease, and food scraps, so the water can then enter your greywater filtration process.
If you wish to send your filtered, cleaned greywater to an irrigation field to feed plants, shrubs, or trees, our irrigation kit is what you need. It provides you all the hose, fittings, and tape you need to complete the project. Greywater cannot be used to water vegetable gardens as the greywater contains bacteria.
The WaterMate comes with washable and replaceable filters and you can purchase new filters. Depending on how much water you use, it is recommended that you wash these filters every 2-3 months.
With the WaterMate you can: save money on watering your garden save your septic system, if you have one, by diverting greywater from it use water twice and return it to the environment, naturally
30 litres (6.8 gallons) of Matala filter media provides 10m2 (108ft2) of specific surface area and 90% void space
Cross-Flow depth filtration: each filter web has a3-dimensional structure, able to trap a high volume of impurities without plugging
Multi-chamber plug flow concept: If the first filter web gets clogged the filtration is done by the 2nd and 3rd filter web. If the 2nd web gets clogged, the filtration is done by the 3rd filter web
Solid removal: up to 75% for pump operated unit, 90% for gravity unit
Submersible pump with integrated Electronic Pump Controller (EPC)
The pump is protected from dry run, clogging and damage with built in overflow safety
Easy to clean
System can be installed above ground, half-submerged in ground, or underground
Water mark approved.
How it works:
Step 1. When the valve is open, greywater flows directly to the mains sewage or septic tank.
Step 2. When the valve is closed, greywater from the house is diverted to the inlet of the filter.
Step 3. The greywater flows through the 1st filter web that retains major and medium particles such as hair, lint, paper detergent clogs and other impurities (The filter web: Matala Black - Low density, Matala Green - Medium density).
Step 4. The greywater flows through the 2nd filter web that retains medium and small particles (The filter web: Matala Green - Medium density, Matala Blue - High density)
Step 5. The greywater flows through the 3rd filter web that retains small and minor particles (The filter web: Matala Blue - High density, Matala Gray - Super high density)
Step 6. Filtered greywater is pumped to the irrigation.
