Grey water recycling is increasingly adopted by residential, commercial, and industrial properties to reduce water bills and improve sustainability. By reusing lightly-used water from baths, showers, and sinks for non-potable purposes like toilet flushing or irrigation, buildings can dramatically cut fresh water demand.
However, effective grey water recycling requires precise monitoring and control. Poorly managed systems risk contamination, blockages, leaks, and inefficient operation – all of which undermine sustainability goals and raise maintenance costs. SmartSenser™ solves these challenges by providing intelligent, automated monitoring and protection for your grey water system, ensuring safe, efficient, and reliable recycling.
The Challenge: Risks and Inefficiencies in Grey Water Systems
Whether installed in homes, hotels, or commercial buildings, grey water systems can pose challenges if left unchecked:
System Leaks: Undetected leaks in collection tanks or distribution pipes lead to water waste, higher bills, and potential structural damage.
Pressure Drops: Inconsistent water pressure can reduce recycling system performance, causing supply interruptions or poor toilet flushing.
Contamination Risks: Without constant monitoring, stagnant or contaminated grey water can pose health risks or cause foul odours.
Manual Inspections: Many systems require frequent human checks to catch issues, which can be time-consuming and unreliable.
Hidden Running Costs: Unnoticed faults lead to wasted water, wasted energy for pumping, and unnecessary maintenance call-outs.
The Solution: SmartSenser™ for Grey Water Recycling
SmartSenser™ acts as an intelligent guardian for your grey water system, working around the clock to monitor, detect, and respond to problems – before they escalate.
Here’s how SmartSenser™ supports grey water recycling:
Continuous Pressure Monitoring: SmartSenser™ ensures your grey water system maintains optimal flow and pressure, preventing supply interruptions to toilets, irrigation systems, or industrial processes.
Leak Detection: It spots pressure anomalies and unusual flow patterns that indicate leaks in tanks or pipes — and can automatically isolate sections of the system to prevent damage or contamination.
Water Quality Alerts: SmartSenser™ can be integrated with water quality sensors to detect irregularities like unexpected temperature changes or flow stagnation, providing early warnings of potential contamination.
Remote Monitoring: Facility managers and homeowners can check the system status in real time via app or dashboard, receiving instant alerts if action is needed.
Automatic Shut-Off: If a serious fault occurs, SmartSenser™ can trigger an automatic shut-off to contain leaks or prevent contaminated grey water from circulating.
Advantages for Sustainable Building Management
Maximises Reuse Efficiency: By ensuring consistent flow and pressure, SmartSenser™ helps deliver reliable grey water supply for non-potable uses, maximising your water savings.
Protects Building Infrastructure: Early detection of leaks or faults prevents costly structural damage and reduces insurance claims.
Reduces Utility Costs: Less wasted water and energy translate directly into lower bills – delivering fast ROI on your grey water recycling investment.
Minimises Maintenance Costs: Fewer emergency call-outs and reduced manual inspections save time and cut maintenance spending.
Supports Green Building Goals: SmartSenser™ helps properties achieve higher sustainability ratings and meet water efficiency targets with confidence.
