Title: "Greywater" diverter vessel assembly without "greywater" storage or external power source
Inventor: BERTRAM JAMES EDWARD
IPC: E03C1/12
Filed: 2004-07-28
Abstract: A "greywater" diverter assembly comprises a cylindrical side vessel 4 and valve3 diversion assembly 1, 2, 16. The device fits onto a vertical wasterwater pipe 9, wherein a user can by closing the valve 1, divert "greywater" to flow up into the cylindrical side vessel 4 and pass through the vessel's removable mesh filter 5 and outflow point 7 for reuse, or alternatively by opening the valve permit "greywater" to flow downward through the valve diversion assembly and sewer or onsite wastewater system. The cylindrical side vessel has an over-flow outlet 8 so "greywater" can overflow and bypass the closed valve and flow directly to the sewer or onsite wastewater system in the event that the free outflow of "greywater" is restricted from either clogging of the mesh filter or other blockage, without restricting or limiting the continued normal free outflow of "greywater" from the building's plumbing fixtures.
