I started off using water from the tap and running it into the drain - but it uses a lot of water so I bought a submersible pump (350W Ozito dirty water pump - $89). I am recirculating water from our swimming pool now. When we move next year and don't have a pool I plan to run the still in the bathroom and fill the bath with water instead - unless I need to water the garden.
The coloured bands of tape on both ends of the hoses are so I don't get confused with which one is meant to go where. For the Boka I use the left hand side for water input and the right hand side for water output. Hoses are longer than I need for the pool as they are the ones I used with the tap and drain. I will probably reorganise the system with shorter hoses later.
