Greywater Irrigation Systems – Drippers are the subsurface land-application systems used with greywater diversion devices (GWDD) and, in some cases, treated greywater from GTS units. These systems are often called dripper fields or ETS (evapotranspiration systems) and are designed to distribute greywater evenly into the soil below the surface.
Dripper fields typically receive greywater within 24 hours of production from a GWDD, minimising storage time while using pressurised dripperline to spread flows across the land-application area. This subsurface approach supports plant growth, protects public health and is consistent with council and standards requirements for greywater reuse.
See Greywater Diversion Systems (GWDD Units) for compatible diversion devices.
