We are having our home built with two 1,000 gallon septic tanks; one for the toilet and the other for gray water.
The gray water tank won't have leach lines, simply a filtered overflow for a living
pond.
The gray water in the tank will be pumped out to primarily water the orchard and wild flower meadow the wife calls her secret garden. She has some wild plans for it, including big stumps pulled from the ground, cleaned of dirt and rocks, and displayed at certain points in the "garden". Guess who'll be doing all THAT work!
Anyway, that's the plan. If your house has a crawlspace you can retrofit a gray water catchment system to your plumbing. I'd seek the advice of a licensed plumber before cutting anything loose. There are codes one must follow. In some places you might have to get a permit and pass milestone inspections.
