Grey water is collected from the run off from sinks, showers and laundry machines. It's not meant for drinking.
Check this: Gray Water
Please explain "new water tank"? Hot water heater? Pressure tank on a pump? Water storage tank? Now explain your definition of "gray water"? I know what mine is, (and I wouldn't drink it) but I'm interested in yours. What was your reason for having the tank installed? Back to you! TomQuote:
