A water treatment system, for example for treating grey water from domestic appliances (12, 14, 16) comprises a water treatment device 4 containing a filter media through which the water passes to remove particulates and bio-matter. The device (4) has a lid (78) provided with a spraying device (80). The spraying device (80) may, for example, receive treated water along a line (128), possibly with the addition of an anti- foaming agent. Operating of the spraying device thus serves to collapse any foam generated within the water treatment device (4). Filter media can be cleaned periodically in a cyclone (116), after being drawn up through a pipe (114) by means of a jet pump (98), receiving treated water along a line (102). Treated water is stored in a storage tank (24) for subsequent use in, for example, a WC (28). |
