Butch,

Can you do this legally in your state?  In New York this is called grey water
and a system using grey water is regulated by the health department.  One
needs filters and must regulate what is put down drains.

In the rural areas where water is scarce people do "invent" grey water
systems.  My son who is an HVAC/Plumbing contractor  cannot use his license to
install such a system.

If you have more info on this, tell us.
