We Manufacturer and Sell Three Levels of Water Recycling Systems
Photos of Each are Shown Below.
The "Ever Green" System
The Commercial "Clearly Green" System
Another "Ever Green" System
The Affordable "Go Green" System
"From Shower to Garden"
This sequence follows the water on it's journey through our Ever Green and Clearly Green Systems.
Gravity Sump Tanks
This sump is located in the crawl space underneath the house
This one is outside in a cinder block vault
In the corner of a basement
At the Yamashiro Restaurant, a 200 gallon sump is used to handle the huge inflow of water being recycled.
The Filter Array
The five stage Filter Array removes debris particles
The array is versatile in mounting location. Here's our proto type system tucked under a backyard deck
Ed Begley, Jr., proud owner of System No. 5. Ed's filters are mounted on his garage (man cave) wall.

The Yamashiro System, No. 9, processes over 800 gallons daily
System No. 1 for Steve and Beth Welch, true Gray Water Recycling Pioneers
Inside the Filter Housings
Reusable micron bags trap debris particles
Anthracite removes smaller particles
Activated Coconut Carbon Filters give clarity and remove odor
Ultra Violet Disinfection
Ultimate state of the art chemical free bacteria disinfection
Like the filter array, the UV chamber is versatile in it's mounting location
To better illustrate function, this lamp is illuminated outside the chamber

Storage Tanks
Tanks come in all styles and configurations

Pressure Tank and "On Demand" Delivery Pump
On demand pump delivers water to irrigation system
How's it Work?
The pump fills the delivery pipe system with water. When the pressure reaches 50 psi a regulator turns off the pump. The system is now "pressurized" and ready to deliver water on demand. Inside the pressure tank is a large air bladder, now fully compressed by the water.
When water is needed the air bladder expands pushing the water to supply the demand. If the demand is short term (filling a toilet tank) the bladder has adequate push to supply the need without the pump turning on. If the demand is long term (irrigation) the pressure regulator 'reads' the pressure drop, when it reaches 30 psi the pump turns on to re-pressurize the system back up to 50 psi.

Filter Housing Interior

Anthracite and Carbon Filter Housings Under Pressure 
When pressure gages reach pre-determined differential readings, service may be required.
Stainless Steel Liquid Filled Pressure Gage
Only the most durable, highest quality components are used.
When the storage tank is low, a float switch activates an inflow of municipal water to maintain automatic operation
Underground Connection to Irrigation System
Below ground there's a maze of irrigation pipes connecting watering zones. While it may look confusing, it's relatively simple to "cap off" the municipal water supply and connect the recycled water delivery line.
