Thanks GT , however how do you achieve this, i.e. do you employ a settlement tank with filter socks for example, how do you deal with sludge and the like? cheers.

Vac pre filters, large vortex removes heavy particles drain valve for 'sludge' bagged and removed from site, incorporate various socks in the setup.
As for settlement filter tank 'sort of', in a filter tank, but there is simply not time for the volume of water we displace, we run upto 21lpm, unless you incorporate a huge additional tank (1000+) or your feed tank is huge... simply not pratical. You obviously need time for the settlement to occur. If you leave a vortex overnight the discharged water will be crystal clear.

Thanks GT,

those vortex filters are they those WaterCo type ones, don't these clean  the water with one pass through ready for reuse? Are they really that good?

I imagine some sort of large solid pre separator or settlement tank, then vortex/ hydrocyclone water filter then polish off with socks down to required size for reuse. This seems quite simple but does it work in practice? dickie
