So Hi :D
I have read the documents and FAQ at Saniflo but can't find any 'why' to the given directions, that seem to imply that if you go Vertically with the waste, you must do that first.
I have a diagram of...
As soon as you turn it on at the mains the motor kicks-in. I have stripped the motor casing and cleaned it thoroughly. Can I fix it or do I need a new unit?!
Thanks

Can anyone tell me how the basic Saniflo macerator works.
Should the motor run continuously until the unit is emptied?
My one pumps for approx. a few seconds stops and repeats once or twice more. My previous unit pumped until empty.
Thanks

Hi All,

It is currently connected to a toilet and washbasin.

Hello all. Just wondering if any one can help. I stripped out a masserator in the saniflow that was blocked. The pump does not work to push away the waste as i believe it has burnt out. The client would now like me to strip the room out and use it as a box room. I replaced the trap with clean...
