Devices and Polishers:
8 x H300
Yearly Water Saving:
37,500 liter | 9,905 gallons

In the newly built neighborhood Blitsaerd in Leeuwarden, the Netherlands, eight homes have been constructed according to the Recycle Ready principles and outfitted with H300 devices. Recycle Ready building means that the homes’ piping network is prepared for greywater recycling. When constructing new homes, this is a relatively cost-effective procedure, making the home future-proof. This project was the first pilot project on a larger scale to field test the initial version of the device and further develop the product. The amount of water saved per year is an average per home and highly depends on the household composition and behavior. The municipality of Leeuwarden awarded Hydraloop and its partners a subsidy to finance the project for innovation and product development purposes.
