Water filtration/recycling apparatus and method
A water recycling apparatus and method for a pool filtration system. A holding tank receives backwashed water containing water-borne particles, and is configured to allow for settling of particles into regions of clear water, and lower regions of sediment. Performing a backwash of the filter directs the backwash into the holding tank for settling for at least 24 hours. A recycling outlet in the tank is coupled through the pool filtration system and its valves to allow redirecting this filtered (or recycled/refiltered) water back to the pool, or for other uses, so that it is not directed down a drain, or otherwise wasted. In addition, the liquid portion of the sedimentary regions can be recycled as desired, such as to garden beds, and the lower sedimentary solids disposed of through a sewer connection or manually collected for disposal.
