Graywater System
- In the Sloan Graywater System, water draining from the sink is captured in a holding tank, where it’s minimally treated with chlorine tablets, and then reused throughout the house in the toilets. When a toilet is flushed in the house, the graywater is pumped from the holding tank to fill up the flush tank.
