A collection valve for use in a water reclamation system, the collection valve comprising:

• a drain pipe having an inlet port connectable to a drain line in which gray water flows, a collection inlet, and an outlet port;
• and
• a collection port assembly, comprising:
• a collection port disposed to receive gray water flowing into the collection inlet, the collection port connectable to a gray water drain line;
• a collection port sensor operable to detect water flow into or out of the collection port;
• and
• a cap operable to (i) close the collection inlet to permit water flow from the inlet port to the outlet port, or (ii) open the collection inlet to permit water flow from the inlet port to the collection port,
• wherein the cap does not physically obstruct water flow within the drain pipe between the inlet port to the outlet port in either operational condition (i) or (ii).
