Summary: Another amazing book by Art Ludwig
Comment: I recommend that you get the 3 companion books on greywater treatment "Create an Oasis", "Branched Drain Greywater Systems" and "Builder's Greywater Guide". The information in these volumes will keep most of us far more informed than most of the regulators, the system builders, and the experts-in-theory. These volumes are real-world gems.
Art Ludwig has cut to the core of wastewater issues. He's obviously done all of his homework, mulled-over the variables, and come up with a common sense, economically reasonable, environmentally responsible approach to wastewater. I expect to save money that I would have spent on a post-septic tank, aerobic unit that would seemingly have been ecologically responsible; but because of the technological overkill, ultimately that system would have defeated my altruistic environmental concerns.
The sheer volume of information in each of his greywater books puts other sources to shame. Each volume is very well written, being clear, amusing, and concise. I can't imagine improving these books, other than keeping the information updated with future editions.
These books talk the talk and walk the walk better than anything else that I've seen. Buy a set for yourself, a set for your neighbors, and a set for the regulators.

Summary: For a Better Designed Dwelling
Comment: As with Art Ludwig's previous two books on the subject of greywater system designs, Create an Oasis with Greywater and Branched Drain Greywater Systems, Builder's Greywater Guide is an indispensable resource for anyone, regardless of budget or skill, who recognises the need to make better, more sustainable, and ecologically-sound dwellings, to design a greywater recycling system for domestic buildings that is perfectly suited to their needs. With brilliantly described, and illustrated, details and data on choosing a system, system options, estimating irrigation demand, as well as legal and health issues, Builder's Greywater Guide is not only a must for designers and builders of greywater systems but a perfect complement to the other two of Art Ludwig's books on the subject.

Summary: Builder's Greywater Guide
Comment: If you are interested in greywater and are contemplating new construction or remodeling you need this book. It explains how to adapt the round peg of sensible greywater reuse to the square hole of bureaucratic regulations. Art Ludwig is straight-forward and fun, covering relations with inspectors, and even featuring a complete copy of the greywater model code, with a discussion of the significance of every important passage and specific suggestions for improving greywater laws.
