Default re washing machine to toilet flushing

Hello what filtration are you using?

Im thinking of using sand and gravel filtration together with mesh .
Did you do anything for the odour? Attached is my planned set up.

I pulled the filter cartridge out, and it did look all linted up.

Mostly, I just was too keep anything from going through that will gunk up my pressure tank, shut off valve, or toilet valve.

I put the filter unit back together, WITHOUT, the actual filter, and everything runs great again!

Maybe I just need to replace the stock filter with a course one so that it only filters out the big stuff.
