Default Water saving................

Watts Premier
Zero-waste
Reverse Osmosis System

$379.99

Item # 751465
Shipping & Handling included


Just noticed this on Costco site seems like a good way to conserve water . ( sorry could not seem to be able to copy and paste picture !)
Seems like the waste gets recycled into the hot water system.
Watts also offer a kit to convert existing systems .
Always worried about all that water going down the sink for a few gallons of R.O. .......................

Its zero waste because it puts the waste water into your hotwater supply.

Opps, just noticed you already said how its gets zero waste.. really big deal.. you don't have to drain it as it is.. you can use it for washing or whatever. They just make more convenient for you. But it looks to be that it is just a pump and a solinoid. Probably by the parts cheaper on Ebay and make it yourself.

Sorry Dave,

Don't mean to come off like that.. I mean "big deal" to their zero waste claim when really its nothing special. If it was zero rejection then I would be jumping up and down .. as for the washing their socks. Most people don't care, and look at waste water as a commodity to throw away, while others use it for watering their garden, washing etc etc..
