GROW 2
Following the success (and bronze medal) of the GROW system at the Chelsea Flower Show in 2005, WWUK have now responded to public demand by creating 'GROW2', a smaller version for individual households.
This 5 trough version measures 2m x 1m x 1m (high at the back) and sits neatly outside the kitchen window at the back of the house looking just as pretty as a raised garden. With a 'grey' water tank and a 'green' water tank both in the shade underneath there is always sufficient treated clean water for the garden and/or the toilets.

The 'grey water' is derived from the bath, shower and hand basins and requires separate plumbing down to ground floor level. There is a normal drain diverting the grey water to the gully which can be controlled by a simple valve if, for example, the GROW 2 filter needs to be cleaned. The GROW 2 system meets all current building regulations.
GROW 2 will be available in Spring 2007 in kit form and will cost in the region of £800 plus installation.
Be prepared for this summer's drought!
