Patent ID: 8308937

Claim:
A grey water diversion system, comprising: an interceptor that comprises a grey water inlet, a filter, a sewer outlet, and an interceptor orifice, wherein the filter is located along a bottom of a water flow path from the grey water inlet to the sewer outlet and delivers grey water to the interceptor orifice as filtered grey water; a gas pump connected to a filter stem, wherein the gas pump delivers gas to the filter via the filter stem in response to the grey water diversion system detecting the presence of the grey water, wherein the gas rises through the filter to raise debris from the filter to the water flow path, and wherein a grey water overflow delivers the debris to the sewer outlet; a suction manifold that comprises a sensor, wherein the suction manifold receives the filtered grey water from the interceptor orifice, and wherein the sensor detects the presence of the filtered grey water; a water pump that receives the filtered grey water from the suction manifold, wherein the water pump activates in response to the sensor detecting the presence of the filtered grey water and delivers the filtered grey water into a water usage system.
