The First - and Only - Legally Approved, UPC-Certified Greywater Diverter for Residential Use, GreenSmart Makes a Splash Onto the Market September 2015
This Missing Link in Greywater Technology Enables Households to Significantly Reduce Potable Water Usage Without Sacrificing Their Gardens
SANTA MONICA, Calif., Sept. 22, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- The very first and only practical, legally approved, UPC-certified greywater diverter device for residential use, which helps to save up to 25% or more on household water use (depending on usage habits), will become available for sale September, 2015. GreenSmart Sustainable Concept's wireless remote-controlled greywater diverter makes it easy to take water from showers to flowers with just the touch of a button. It redirects greywater drainage headed to the sewer from showers, bath tubs, washing machines and utility sinks and sends it directly into the garden, or to a greywater collection / irrigation system. When needed, another push of a button diverts the flow back to the sewer system. Prior to GreenSmart's device being awarded UPC certification in March 2015, no legally approved diverter existed for contractors to use to meet building mandates for residential greywater-ready systems, which since 2010 have been required in Tucson, Arizona and are on the books to become law in California in 2018.The GreenSmart Greywater Diverter is now available online at Greensmartsc.com and coming soon to leading plumbing retailers, such as Ferguson.

The current drought has forced many municipalities to begin fining residents and mandating usage cuts which are almost impossible to meet - even for the water conscious. "The degree of seriousness this drought portends means that California can't really wait until 2018 for laws to require greywater-ready systems," said GreenSmart founder Garry Sato. "I don't think consumers realize how extreme a 25% water cut will impact their lives. An average shower and each load of laundry uses approximately 25 gallons of water, and a bath as much as 50. This device allows one to reuse the water that runs while your shower is getting hot, while brushing your teeth, or wasted after a bath soothes an aching body. It makes it easy for residents to heavily contribute to solving this crisis pretty darned fast. Reusing greywater is an eons-old practice and today is used extensively in the Middle East. Reuse of greywater is really the only practical solution that offers an immediate and significant impact on residential water consumption."
