Described is a method for installing a gray water reclamation system in an existing plumbing infrastructure. A flexible conduit 26 is connected to the drain of a gray water source by moving the flexible conduit through an access 36 in the plumbing infrastructure and through the drainage conduit 41 to the drain where one end of the flexible conduit is coupled thereto. The other end of the flexible conduit is located adjacent the access and is in fluid communication with a filtration apparatus 27 and a storage vessel 28 so that the gray water may be filtered and then stored. A plumbing snake may be used to move the flexible conduit through the existing plumbing infrastructure.

[ Having fully described the invention in such clear and concise terms as to enable those skilled in the art to understand and practice the same, the invention claimed is:] [1.]1. In a system including a source of gray water having a drain, a drainage conduit coupled with the drain in fluid communication and an access to the drainage conduit remote from the source, a method of installing a gray water reclamation system, the method comprising the steps of:providing an elongated flexible conduit having a proximal end and a distal end;moving the proximal end of the elongate flexible conduit into and through the access and the drainage conduit;locating the proximal end of the elongate flexible conduit adjacent the drain;locating the distal end of the elongate flexible conduit adjacent the access;coupling the proximal end of the elongate flexible conduit with the drain in gray water communication, the elongate flexible conduit for receiving and conducting gray water from the drain to the distal end;providing a filtration apparatus in fluid communication with said elongate flexible conduit to produce filtered gray water; andproviding a storage vessel in fluid communication with said filtration apparatus for storing the filtered gray water.
