GEN3 PLUMBING & DRAINAGE
Water
In a dry and drought-prone climate like Australia’s, it is crucial that water is used in a sensible and sustainable way. To avoid wasting water and to make the most of all available water sources, we work with clients to install and manage systems for water reuse, recycled water, and above and below ground reticulation.

Water Reuse Systems
Many people don’t realise how easy it is to reuse water in residential and commercial settings.
Household wastewater, including water from showers, basins, washing machines, dishwashers and kitchen sinks, can be reused in the home instead of using potable, or drinking water, for uses such as gardens or flushing the toilet. Reusing water can save money on water bills, reduce the demand on the water system, and is a more sustainable and environmentally friendly option.
Gen 3 Plumbing & Drainage work with clients to alter their plumbing systems so that wastewater is channelled into different household usages, rather than being treated as a waste product. Depending on your needs, you can utilise grey water with minimal treatment, or choose to treat and use blackwater (or water that has the potential for contamination by food waste, pathogens and grease).
Recycled Water
Recycled water systems provide a perfect solution for those wanting to use alternative water for watering gardens, driveways and other household purposes. Especially if you are in a dry area or lack the infrastructure for consistent drinking water supply, recycled water allows you to save water using appropriate filtration and sanitation systems.
Our team can install water tanks and recycled water systems, and are available for repairs and maintenance as needed. We provide tailored advice to your unique circumstances so you know you are always receiving the best recycled water solution for your property.
Above Ground Reticulation
Above ground irrigation offers the advantage of saving time and providing an efficient way of watering large areas, such as farmland, sports grounds, golf courses and more. They distribute water in a consistent way and can be installed to operate in line with water restrictions during times of drought.
We ensure that above ground reticulation systems have optimal water pressure and avoid common issues, such as overspray and puddling. Our carefully designed systems reduce water consumption, eliminate run off and wind drift, reduce evaporation and deliver water directly to the root of the plant.
Below Ground Reticulation
Gen 3 Plumbing & Drainage can install below ground reticulation solutions to both new and existing gardens, lawns and paddocks. Our experienced team have expert knowledge of soil types and the ideal distance between driplines so we can provide optimum watering solutions for you. We can also advise on planting and garden bed arrangement to make the most of available water.
