    Build Smarter Water Systems- Residential & Commercial Graywater Design (Installer Class)

    With water supply challenges on the rise, smart conservation is no longer optional- it’s essential. This hands-on bootcamp teaches you how to design and build residential and commercial graywater systems that meet Denver and Colorado’s latest regulations.

    Designed for those with basic plumbing, landscaping, or irrigation experience, this course dives into the practical and regulatory knowledge needed to install graywater systems that reuse water from sinks, showers, and laundry machines to irrigate landscapes and reduce waste.

    You’ll learn:

    • Colorado’s graywater codes, including Regulation 86 and local ordinances

    • System design and sizing for residential and commercial applications

    • How to select appropriate plants and irrigation methods

    • Installation techniques and safety considerations

    • Overview of commercially available packaged systems

    The course includes a site visit to a working graywater system and introduces you to real-world applications. An optional exam and installation opportunity are available for those seeking QWEL Certification and listing as a Qualified Water Efficient Landscaper.
