Anyone considered just sending the brine to the yard as gray water?
- jonhohle 3y agoPremiere H2O has a system that dumped the water into the hot water line, similar to a hot water loop, but in reverse. There’s a lot of caveats with that arrangement (doesn’t really work with a tankless water heater, for example).
- r00fus 3y agoWait, they push the waste/brine into the hot water line? Wouldn't that defeat the purpose of filtration? I was thinking more of using it typical gray water usage like watering plants.
- tacitusarc 3y agoI imagine despite the term brine it is still incredibly clean water

- evancox100 3y ago... you’ve never used hot water to fill up, say, a pot of water for cooking?
- TsiCClawOfLight 3y agoit's gross. Don't do that.
- soperj 3y agoYou still absorb an astounding amount of chemicals through your skin.
- infecto 3y agoWhen you say brine is that in seawater desalination RO or are you using that to include non-seawater RO reject water? You could definitely use it as gray water but if you are filtering for contaminants, that water would have a higher concentration and if you were pushing it out as gray water, would those areas of the yard have higher levels potentially of contaminants?
