I have been told that Chlorine is bad for the environment. Why do you use chlorine in the Brac system?
When handled properly, chlorine is the most effective way to treat greywater, and is the most cost-effective as well. Our latest generation of tanks includes a programmable chlorination system, which allows the user to fine-tune the water treatment, so that only as much chlorine as is needed to keep the water sterile is added to the greywater. Other treatment methods could be utilized, but the result would be a larger system footprint, and a much more expensive price tag. In addition, Health Canada is in the process of instituting national guidelines that will require that recycled greywater be treated with a form of chlorine, regardless of what other methods are utilized. For more information about the uses, benefits, and hazards of chlorine, see our list of chlorine resources.
