Method for recycling water and a water recycling device
The present inventive concept relates to a water recycling device comprising: an outlet configured to output treated water; a drain for collecting used water output from said outlet; a return/evacuation path in liquid communication with said drain, wherein said return/evacuation path comprises an inlet for receiving water collected by said drain; a return path in liquid communication with said return/evacuation path; a treatment path in liquid communication with said return path and said outlet; an external water path in liquid communication with said treatment path, said external water path being connected to an external water outlet; a valve arrangement configured to accept as inputs used water from said return path and/or external water from said external water path, said valve arrangement being placed between said return path and said treatment path, said valve arrangement being configured to direct said inputs to said treatment path, said valve arrangement being configured to mix said external water with said used water from said return path; a circulation pump for providing a flow in said water recycling device; and a water treatment arrangement placed downstream to said valve arrangement.
RECIRCULATING SHOWER SYSTEM
The present disclosure relates to a recirculating shower system. The recirculating shower system may include a first shower outlet and a second shower outlet. The recirculating shower system may include a fresh water conduit fluidly coupled to the first shower outlet and a recirculated fluid conduit fluidly coupled to the second shower outlet. The fresh water conduit and the recirculated fluid conduit may be arranged such that warmer fresh water flowing through the fresh water conduit may heat cooler recirculated fluid flowing through the recirculated fluid conduit.
