Homesteading-Water

When we built out new house - we did a few things - Grey water is a must - it saves so much water, front load washer uses so much less water and a low water dishwasher does wonders. We just used another water tank to use as a grew water tank - a cheap pool filter - and a pump - it works great - no need to waste money on expensive pre packaged systems. Good luck to you bud.

Can you dig a well where your at? Do you know how deep your water table is?

[slmdj]

We cant dig a well cause my county was metroed into Louisville and they banned wells. My water table is only about 50 feet down. I can hook up to city water for $7,500.00.

That really has to be horrible. I mean you can't create more water! Good luck with using what you have and good job on being able to use so litte.

I imagine it is a pain. I hope you have a rain catchement system and re-use grey water. Why no well?

[slmdj]

We collect off the roof but we're in a severe drought right now. No grey water setup yet but if I can find a cheap tank and pump I would catch some shower water to help with the garden.

Pain in the ass.
