TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE
PROBLEM
Motor turns normally but the water 
evacuates slowly from the bowl, 
(flush incomplete).
Waste build up in bowl.
The macerating unit does not start 
up. Water does not evacuate.
The motor hums but does not turn 
the water does not evacuate.
Water goes down slowly and motor 
works intermittently.
The water evacuates from the toilet 
but the motor runs for a very long 
time, thermal overload activates.
After evacuation the motor engages 
several times in succession before it 
stops completely.
Motor turns noisily without stopping 
or pumping.
After evacuation the motor starts, 
stops, and re-engages indefinitely.
For Saniplus, the motor turns with a 
rattling noise.
Water backs up into shower tray or 
bathtub.
CAUSE
Discharge pipe blocked or valve not 
vented properly.
Inadequate water supply from 
reservoir.
Power supply off. Thermal overload 
cut out.
Foreign body blocking the macera-
ting blades. Defective capacitor.
Clogged up (sanitary napkin, news-
paper, plugged breather hole etc.).
Kinked/blocked discharge pipe, 
damaged membrane, defective 
impeller, and partially blocked pump.
Water siphons back into the 
macerating unit. Check valve 
is not functioning properly.
Siphonage or insufficient back 
pressure in discharge pipe, causing 
airlock. Foreign object.
Water leaking from reservoir into 
bowl. Faulty non-return check valve.
Solid item has fallen into the grille of 
the macerating unit.
Inadequategravity-fallintomacera-
tingunit or blockage in drain piping.
Faulty inlet control flap.
REMEDY
Clean out the piping and air breather 
hole.
Check and/or adjust water level in 
reservoir.
Wait for thermal overload to engage 
(approx. 20 min).
See “dismantling”.
Flush 3 or 4 times to clear. Cleaning 
or dismantling may be required.
Clean out the breather hole.
Check installation.
Flush once or twice with clean water 
to clear valve or remove valve to 
clean.
Modify discharge pipe run to 
eliminate siphonage and/or increase 
backpressure. E.g. reduce pipe size, 
put extra bend in run. Remove 
foreign object.
Check flush valve. Check and clean 
non-return check valve.
Clear object from grille area.
1
/4” per foot gravity fall minimum 
into macerating unit from other sani-
tary fixtures.
Clean out the flap.
