INTRODUCTION
The importance of reusing water around the world has increased and many countries are taking steps to efficient water
use, recycling it to irrigate plants, parks and agricultural crops.
People around the world are becoming aware of the importance of taking care of water and of proper ways in which it can be recycled.
HOW DOES A FILTER WORK? A filter works removing contaminants, it has a membrane of carbon which attracts the contaminants, when the water passes through it; it activates the carbon and gets the particles. However, there are many filters depending on the use that we give.
PROPOSAL
I propose another use to this kind of water, but this water will come out from the washing machine and the one used in the shower when we bath.
This water will flow toward a deposit and wait until it is used in the toilet or in the garden hose.
CAPTURE THE WATER FROM THE RAIN, SHOWER AND WASHING MACHINE
installing systems that draw water from rain and reuse water in house you can avoid using the main water supply up to 50%. While rain water is not for human use, it is suitable for domestic use.The water consumption in a home is an average of 150 liters per person a day, and more than half goes to the toilet, washing machine, general cleaning activities therefore you do not need treated water.

DISADVANTAGES
We accept that many people may feel and express disgust at the idea of close contact with wastewater recycled.
treatment improvements alone will not be enough to guarantee the success of future water reuse efforts
