Reuse Waste Water from Water Filter - spigot

We installed our reverse osmosis water filter ourselves and instead of having the waste water drain down into the sink and be a complete waste, we route the outlet waste pipe into a bucket/cooler to collect the waste water.

What do we use the waste water for?

- Water plants
- wash/clean car
- cleaning floors
- and so forth.

Genius!! Another idea is to keep a well marked jug in your car for the radiator. I don't like wasting anything. This is a great idea.

That is a good idea too! We re-use the galloon jugs and put an X on the cap to bring to the beach since they shut off water at some beaches we go to (to save water).
