You know, as much as I love the idea, there’s almost no incentive for people to go through the trouble to use grey water in their homes, if they end up paying the same or more on their bill. Ignoring the $10,000 for the system to get started.
That is probably the biggest issue. The up-front capitol cost.
Not to mention the ongoing maintenance of pumps and valves needed to keep it working.
Unless local water prices are very high (or there is a grant/subsidy program), there is unlikely to be a financial breakeven during that homeowner’s life.
