Sloan AQUS: Puts Sink Water To Good Use

Sloan Valve Company's innovative, new Sloan AQUS Reclaimed Water System captures greywater from bathroom lavatory drains and reuses it in toilets, saving thousands of gallons of water annually. Installation of a Sloan AQUS Greywater System contributes to points for LEED certification.

Sloan's system funnels water that flows down lavatory sinks and routes it through a sanitizing device that cleans and filters the water. The water then goes to a storage reservoir under the sink. When a toilet that is connected to the system flushes, it pumps water from the reservoir to the flush tank. This system significantly reduces the amount of clean, potable water needed for toilets by reusing greywater, which is perfectly suitable for flushing.

The Sloan AQUS Reclaimed Water System is ideal for hotels, schools, commercial buildings, government structures and single- and multi-family residences that have restrooms with regular, tank-type toilets. The system is based on technology from WaterSaver Technologies.

The AQUS System

The Sloan AQUS is based upon the premise that using fresh water to flush a toilet is unnecessary and wasteful. Our system takes the water that goes down the bathroom sink, filters and disinfects it, and uses it to flush the toilet. It does not cross connect to the fresh water system nor does it inhibit the backflow prevention. It simply uses reused water as the primary source for flushing the toilet then supplements it with fresh water, as needed. The system can save up to 6,000 gallons of fresh water per year and requires only annual maintenance.
