For fourteen years the back wash and waste water from cleaning the pool have been pumped through my garden wall onto a field , For some reason the owner of the field[ which has never been used for crops or any other purposes ] has decided to block the pipe with cement . What are my options now and how do other pool owners cope with waste water ??.
Would be grateful for any replies .Lefkes.

Re: Pool back wash and waste water
Not sure how big your property is but our waste goes directly into our garden, it soaks into the ground overnight.lefkes wrote: ↑Wed Jun 10, 2020 1:03 pm For fourteen years the back wash and waste water from cleaning the pool have been pumped through my garden wall onto a field , For some reason the owner of the field[ which has never been used for crops or any other purposes ] has decided to block the pipe with cement .

Yes we used to do the same, it never harmed our plants. Our shower water in the en-suite used to run onto our garden too.

Thanks Jackie, as long as the Chlorine levels aren't too high it should be harmless

Re: Pool back wash and waste water
My backwash water goes into a large white plastic tank and is pumped from there up to smaller barrels more conveniently located for filling watering cans so I can readily water my potted plants, by which time any chlorine has long dissipated.

I agree, heaven forbid that someone has a stomach bug and follows through in the pool, the whole complex will be ill
