Shower to Landscape
Divert 10-20 gallons of water per shower/bath, directly into your landscape!
How it Works
The Shower to Landscape system diverts water from your shower or bath, directly into nearby mulch basins in the landscape. These basins are installed strategically throughout your garden, especially to plants that need a lot of water, like young fruit trees.
These systems rely on gravity for water flow and are therefore more intricate than some of our other systems; pump systems are also an option. The Shower to Landscape system will supply plenty of greywater to your landscape all year-around!
Benefits to Shower/Bath to Landscape systems
The average American uses approximately 17 gallons of water per 8 minute shower. A household of three people will therefore use ~51 gallons of water from their showers per day. By installing the Shower to Landscape system, 100% of the water from your shower will be diverted directly into your landscape.
By installing a Shower to Landscape system you are helping divert over 18,800+ gallons of water per year (based on a household of 3) from local water treatment facilities, waterways and ultimately to the Bay and Ocean.
You will see immediate savings on your water bill after the installation of a Shower to Landscape system.
Your landscape will instantly become drought proof, and you can avoid drought tolerant designs if so desired.
The Shower to Landscape system will not drastically change your current landscape as it is designed to be discrete.
It takes our staff two days to install this system. Our staff will help you with permits required by your city.
Feel great knowing you are using water twice and saving money on your water bill!
Water that is not consumed by your landscape flora will flow into the local aquifer with supports creek flows.
