Install a laundry-to-landscape greywater line.

Every laundry load at this Sonora home sends 15 to 40 gallons of reusable water down the drain in a dry West Texas county. A simple no-permit laundry-to-landscape system sends that water to trees and beds instead. One afternoon of work turns the washing machine into an irrigation source.

This packet is not funded yet, so this figure is a proposed price and not money waiting in escrow. If a buyer funds it, approved proof settles that price onchain. If nobody funds it, approved proof earns provable credit toward the work instead of cash. You see which before you claim, never after.

Proof

photos of valve, line run, mulch-basin outlets, flow test with GPS and date

This is exactly what gets it approved. Nothing settles without it.

The creator wallet. Its signature is what approves proof and settles the wage.

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.

Steps

1. Plan the mulch-basin outlets with the host for trees and beds downhill of the machine.
2. Install the three-way valve on the washer standpipe so the host can always divert back to drain.
3. Run one-inch line out through the agreed wall or vent path to the landscape.
4. Set valved outlets into mulch basins at each tree or bed, covered per code.
5. Run a load on the landscape setting, confirm flow at each outlet, and photograph the system, recording with GPS and date.

What counts as done

• Written or recorded permission from the resident
• Photo of the three-way valve installed and labeled
• Photo of the line run to landscape
• Photos of covered mulch-basin outlets
• Photo of flow during the test load

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.

The standard this serves

Water Efficiency. Water efficiency is the quiet discipline of wasting nothing indoors. The EPA's WaterSense program sets the marks: how many gallons a minute a faucet should pass, how to find the leak that runs a toilet all night, how a household's water bill tells a story. Mastery looks like an auditor who can walk a home in an hour and find every hidden gallon. The skill is built one fixture at a time, which is exactly what this packet asks: measure one flow, find one leak, record one truth about where the water goes.
