Abstract
A water conservation apparatus for recycling and reusing water from non-solid discharges in which rinse water discharged from washing machines and dishwashers is captured and reused in subsequent washing operations. The apparatus also includes storage tank in which water discharged from tubs, showers and sinks is captured, stored and then automatically reused at most appropriate times for irrigation purposes. Wastewater from the dishwasher and washing machine, when not recycled, can also be routed to the storage tank, or, alternatively, can be routed directly to a sprinkler system for irrigation purposes.
