Re-routing plumbing to catch grey water


So we moved to a new townhouse and the double storey posed a problem for my shower water saving efforts. A little plumbing will save all my shower water to do my washing with. Cost only a few bucks and half an hour of my effort. Well done, me!

Updated: I have ditched the downpipe nozzle at the end of the drainpipe and replaced it with an old panty hose foot that dangles in the container .. Now all the hair from the shower water gets trapped and doesn't land in my laundry water....
