There are many uses of RO reject water, including mopping floors and cleaning cars. Etc. However, you should not use the waste water to wash your hair or cook. RO reject water can be collected for different uses, but users in Delhi, where supply is scarce, should ask the brand about the water recovery rate.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">RO reject water is impossible to ignore in Delhi because of groundwater depletion and irregular water supply. Usually, an RO water purifier can reject 60-80% of the input water. If you are on borewell water, a reverse osmosis system is necessary to manage high TDS levels. That\u2019s why many families wonder how to save RO waste water. There are a few things you can do with the RO reject water, but you should also learn about the size of an RO waster water storage tank, how to save the water, and when you should not use the waste water. Here\u2019s a complete guide to RO reject water and what you should do with it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentomojo.com\/blog\/tds-level-in-water-purifier\/\">TDS Levels In Water Purifier: What Is The Ideal Range?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_68_1 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-custom ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title \" >Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #302d55;color:#302d55\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #302d55;color:#302d55\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"#\" data-href=\"https:\/\/www.rentomojo.com\/blog\/how-to-save-ro-water-in-delhi\/#What_is_RO_Reject_Water\" title=\"What is RO Reject Water?\u00a0\">What is RO Reject Water?\u00a0<\/a><ul class='ez-toc-list-level-3' ><li class='ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"#\" data-href=\"https:\/\/www.rentomojo.com\/blog\/how-to-save-ro-water-in-delhi\/#TDS_Levels_of_RO_Reject_Water\" title=\"TDS Levels of RO Reject Water\u00a0\">TDS Levels of RO Reject Water\u00a0<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"#\" data-href=\"https:\/\/www.rentomojo.com\/blog\/how-to-save-ro-water-in-delhi\/#Why_Consider_RO_Waste_Water_for_Delhi\" title=\"Why Consider RO Waste Water for Delhi?\u00a0\">Why Consider RO Waste Water for Delhi?\u00a0<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"#\" data-href=\"https:\/\/www.rentomojo.com\/blog\/how-to-save-ro-water-in-delhi\/#How_to_Save_RO_Waste_Water_in_Delhi\" title=\"How to Save RO Waste Water in Delhi\u00a0\">How to Save RO Waste Water in Delhi\u00a0<\/a><ul class='ez-toc-list-level-3' ><li class='ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"#\" data-href=\"https:\/\/www.rentomojo.com\/blog\/how-to-save-ro-water-in-delhi\/#1_Check_the_RO_Recovery_Rate\" title=\"1.

For Toilet Flushing\u00a0<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, the RO waste water can be used for flushing regardless of its TDS level. IS 1172 allows 45L per person per day for flushing. A family of four needs about 180 L a day for flushing alone. 30L from an RO waste water storage tank can cover 5 full flushes of 6 L on an IS 774 dual-flush cistern. You need to pour the bucket straight into the low because high TDS can scale the flush valve.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_For_Mopping_Floors\"><\/span><b>2. For Mopping Floors<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes. Mopping is the only use on all three official lists. Fill the mop bucket from the RO waste water storage tank tap and add floor cleaner as usual. On dark granite or polished marble, dry the floor afterwards, since evaporating reject water leaves white marks.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_For_Washing_Utensils\"><\/span><b>3. For Washing Utensils<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For soaking and scrubbing, yes; the NGT&#8217;s 2019 list includes utensil washing. Keep a basin filled with RO wastewater from the RO waste water storage tank for greasy pans and steel vessels, then give everything a final rinse in tap water to avoid a chalky film.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_For_Cleaning_Cars\"><\/span><b>4. For Cleaning Cars\u00a0<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes. CPCB and the NGT both include vehicle washing. Carry a bucket from the RO waste water storage tank to the parking area instead of running a hose. Wipe cars and two-wheelers dry so dissolved salts don&#8217;t leave spots on the paint.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_For_Watering_Plants\"><\/span><b>5. For Watering Plants\u00a0<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It depends on TDS. CPCB&#8217;s 2026 list leaves out gardening, while the NGT and DJB include it. FAO Irrigation and Drainage Paper 29 classifies irrigation water by salinity:<\/span><\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><b>TDS of water<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>FAO Restriction on use<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Below 450 mg\/L<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">None<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">450\u20132,000 mg\/L<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Slight to moderate<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Above 2,000 mg\/L<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Severe<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You should check the RO waste water with a TDS meter if you want to water your plants. If the TDS level is between 450 and 2,000 mg\/L, you should mix the waste water with tap water for ornamental plants. When the TDS is above 2,000 mg\/L, it is better to avoid it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentomojo.com\/blog\/ro-water-for-hair-wash\/\">RO Water For Hair Wash: Is It A Good Idea?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"When_to_Avoid_RO_Waste_Water_for_Daily_Use\"><\/span><b>When to Avoid RO Waste Water for Daily Use\u00a0<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">RO waste water can be used for many things but not for drinking, cooking, or bathing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Is_RO_Waste_Water_Good_or_Bad_for_Bathing\"><\/span><b>1. Is RO Waste Water Good or Bad for Bathing?\u00a0<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No, you should not use RO reject water for bathing or washing your hair. Its high TDS level can dry out your skin and cause rashes or itching. RO waste water can also damage hair, leading to breakage. It contains minerals, salts, and impurities at high concentrations.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Is_RO_Waste_Water_Good_for_an_Air_Cooler\"><\/span><b>2. Is RO Waste Water Good for an Air Cooler?\u00a0<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can use it, but it is better to avoid it for two reasons. High TDS and salt concentrations lead to faster scaling and white crust deposits on the cooling pads. It reduces cooling efficiency over time. Additionally, stagnant, high-salinity water can lead to algae or bad odour if you leave it in the tank too long.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Can_You_Use_RO_Reject_Water_for_an_Inverter_Battery\"><\/span><b>3.
