laundry water

Fabric cleaning liquid

Laundry water is the water used for or left over from washing clothes.

It may refer to the water going into a wash cycle or the dirty water drained out afterward.

Gray water recycling systems often capture laundry water for reuse in irrigation: We redirect our laundry water to the garden.
