Three filter cartridges
The cartridges purify the recycled water down to 5 microns and allow a UV system to be added (sold separately).

What the Spareau Family kit does for you
The Spareau Family kit turns your home into a genuine grey-water recovery station. Installed at the lowest point of the drainage network, it automatically collects unpolluted wastewater, filters it and prepares it for a second use.
Grey-water collection
The Spareau Family kit captures up to 100 % of the water from your wash-basins, showers, baths and washing machine. A dedicated collector diverts this flow to a self-cleaning pre-filter that traps hair, fibres and suspended particles. You recover pre-cleaned water, free of the main residues and ready for treatment.
Grey-water treatment
Once pre-filtered, the water passes through a compact treatment module: activated-carbon adsorption, multi-cartridge fine filtration and UV disinfection. This process effectively removes bacteria, micro-pollutants and soap traces, providing a hygienic quality suitable for non-potable domestic uses.
Grey-water reuse
After treatment, the recycled water can irrigate lawns and vegetable plots, supply toilet cisterns and floor washers, and even wash your car. By connecting a simple secondary distribution network, you can replace up to 40 % of your drinking-water consumption with upgraded grey water.
Save 40 % + on your bills
By reducing drinking-water use by up to 50 %, the Spareau Family kit typically cuts quarterly bills by around 40 %. The investment pays for itself in three to five years (depending on local tariffs) and may qualify for local grants or tax credits for water-saving equipment.
Save 40 % + of drinking water
By intelligently reusing grey water, you preserve tens of cubic metres of drinking water each year. This simple action eases pressure on aquifers, shrinks your household water footprint and actively contributes to tackling water stress and meeting sustainable-development goals.

Who is the Spareau Family kit for?
Designed for any premises accommodating up to six people, the Spareau Family comes as a ready-to-install kit that is simple to put in place. Ideally positioned at the lowest point of the drainage network so it can recover grey water by gravity, it can be paired with a second tank (XL version) to double its capacity, making it suitable for small collectives of up to 12 people (holiday cottages, site cabins, offices, etc.). Cut your drinking-water use by at least 40 % with the Spareau Family!
Individual dwelling
In a single-family house the Spareau Family can be tucked away in the cellar, garage or crawl space. You gain a fully autonomous grey-water recycling system, with no major alterations to your pipework, for watering the garden and lawn or flushing the toilet.
Tiny house
Compact and lightweight, the Spareau Family kit is perfect for tiny houses and other micro-homes. Its straightforward connections make for a quick installation, even on minimal foundations, ensuring every litre of water is put to good use in your minimalist living space.
Bungalow
Whether it is a second home or a holiday let, the Spareau Family adds value to your bungalow. Give occupants an eco-friendly experience by reusing their grey water for non-potable purposes.
Site cabin
On a building site or in a base camp, temporary cabins can now be fitted with effective grey-water treatment. Quick to install and needing no extra power supply, the Spareau Family provides a supply of non-potable water wherever you need it.
Garden outbuilding
Your pool house, workshop or garden studio can benefit from grey-water recycling: irrigation, equipment cleaning or filling non-potable water points become possible without drawing on the mains. Install the Spareau Family where drinking water is at a premium.
Mobile Home
Compatible with static mobile homes and caravans, the Spareau Family connects to your waste-water outlets in no time. Light and designed for minimal maintenance, it can significantly cut your water bills even in tourist areas or on the move.

I was looking for a way to recycle my wastewater when I discovered this young company offering an innovative and cost-effective solution. The concept is really well thought-out and the team gave me excellent advice and support. Installation was very straightforward and I’m delighted with the result. Highly recommended.

We installed the SPAREAU module while building our home, and it has been running since February 2021. It’s a real source of pride to see our shower water being recycled to flush the toilets.

A bit more detail: in our house SPAREAU collects only the shower water and supplies both toilet cisterns. There are two of us living here, and the module works completely autonomously. In fact, it provides more than enough water; we disconnected the mains top-up from day one to test the system’s independence and have never needed to turn it back on.

An ingenious idea with an implementation that isn’t too complicated – exactly what was needed to stop wasting drinking water. Thank you to the inventor! (And it’s made in France, which is even better.)
