Water (catching it, saving it, treating it, using less of it, reusing it)

DIY projects you can build to harvest rainwater, reduce water use, and reuse water.

 

I suppose that the only thing we waste more of than energy is water, and the consequences are probably just as bad -- maybe worse.  Here are some practical ways to get started changing that.

Really good how-to book on rainwater collection systems.

Nice, down-to-earth style.   The authors have installed many systems, and appear to know the subject well.
About the only down side is that the book only covers southern climates, and may need a bit of adjusting for other places.

Design for Water,
Heather Kinkade-Levario

 

A good and up-to-date book on rain water harvesting, stormwater catchment, and water reuse.

Covers passive systems that catch and control storm water as well as active systems that store rain water for later use for drinking or landscape irrigation. 

Sufficient detail to support designing and building your own system.
Last half of book is "case studies", but nearly all are large commercial  systems.  235 pages, 2007.

This very good book covers all aspects of the impressive Earthship water system, including roof water catchment, cisterns, water distribution, grey water and black water treatment, and grey water reuse. 
Earthships are typically have complete water independence -- they capture all of their water needs on the roof, and they don't export sewage -- all in a climate with 8 inches of annual rainfall.  The book covers thirty years worth of lessons learned in designing these systems.

Rainwater Harvesting with Multiple Barrels

A well thought out scheme for adding together any number of barrels for rain water catchment.

Complete with good plumbing diagrams, and even a water level gage.
(if supporting the barrels as shown is a problem, it would probably be possible to make the plumbing connection to each barrel down low on the side)

The WooTank -- Version 2

A nice tank you can build for fish or rainwater...

This is a nice design for tank from Nathan. 
The tank consists of an external frame made from 2 by lumber, and plywood sides lined with EPDM.  The bottom basically sits right on the ground.  Very simple and inexpensive, but likely to be durable.  I think the external frame could be stained and look very nice in a home landscape or garden.
Nathan uses the tank as a fish tank, but it should work fine for rain harvesting.

This is an advanced rainwater and greywater collection system.  The system collects rainwater from the roof, and routes it to two 275 gallon tote type tanks in the crawl space.  Greywater from the shower is also collected and routed to the same two tanks.  A pump is used to extract water from the tanks for landscape watering.  All-in-all a very nice system.
The system is described with quite a bit of construction detail in the YouTube video.

Advanced Toilets -- of many kinds -- $10 and up
High Efficiency Toilets (HET's)
These toilets utilize various techniques to reduce the amount of water per flush to no more than 1.28 gallons -- sometimes as little as 1 gallon.   In order to receive the HET designation, the toilets must pass the same performance test that conventional toilets have to pass. 
Designs include Dual-Flush, Pressure Assisted Flush, and Flushometer.
Since about 30% of household water goes to toilet flushing, these lower flush toilets can result in significant water saving.
Toilet performance tests

Primer on HET's (pdf)

The MAP site under the "Professional" tab has test results for thousands of toilets


EPA on HET's

The Performance Testing link describes the MAP test, which tests toilet flushing performance.  The idea of the testing program is to ensure that past problems with low flush toilets are not repeated.

(my thanks to John Koeller for providing the HET information)

EPA WaterSense Program

http://www.epa.gov/WaterSense/pubs/toilets.html

 

 

This is a program that the EPA is promoting.  Toilets with this label use at least 20% less water than the current federal standard for toilets.

So, ask your supplier why he does not have a bunch of toilets with this label.

irawoodinc.com/du08arsewaur.html

 

Waterless urinals save a great deal of water, and are becoming more popular for home use.

Waterless urinals use a sealant liquid in a trap that is lighter that water and remains in the trap to prevent odors.  More...

On a commercial scale:" A Waterless urinal saves on average 45,000 gallons of water a year . Twenty-two Waterless urinals save approximately 1,000,000 gallons of water per year. It can be estimated that there are 8 million urinals installed in the US alone with approximately 100 million people using these fixtures. Assuming an average 2 gallon flush, the potable water use of urinals in this country per year is approximately 160 billion gallons."

Urine Separation Toilets
These toilets separate out the urine and collect it in a separate container for use as a high value fertilizer.
Separation greatly simplifies sewage treatment, and saves much water.

These toilets turn the waste into compost, and generally do not need water.
The various designs have their strong and weak points -- some research is in order.
I have to be honest here -- The reports I have read on these toilets are very mixed.  A number of people in continuous use situations report having trouble making these composting toilets work  -- so do your homework carefully.

Here is a discussion thread from Homesteading Today that is typical the kind of experience people report for commercial composting toilets...
