I really got a sense for what my options are! So glad to hear it's legal in CA now, and definitely interested in learning more about what the ROI would be for an installation. With water prices skyrocketing in SoCal, I'm sure it would be a very quick payback. Also, with the water shortages and restrictions in place, installing a system is crucial!

I only know about slightly filtered rain water, for the toilet and the washingmachine. in CA there might be too little rain, but here there is enough. If there is too little rain one should think about not having a big lawn or have resistant trees give shade. Some houses don't even have a connection to the sewagetreatmentplant why are they legal? there is plenty of stuff in our waste that doesn't break down and that is harmful. here in germany I don’t know of using gray-water.

They do currently have an incentive that discounts the purchase of rain barrels through 2010. Santa Rosa and North Marin do offer greywater incentives like this and more will follow so it's worth contacting you local utility. Thanks for the question, Greg @rennea
