XTENSION PIPE

The macerating pumps can

be installed stand alone or

ehind the wall with the use of

an extension pipe (maximum

length 18"). The bowl must

be raised by

⁄8". Can only

be used with the Sanitop, Saniplus and Sanibest.

PIPE SUPPORTS

All sanitary pipe work must be supported in accordance

with the pipe manufacturers recommendations to avoid

dipping which may cause the build up of residual waste

and subsequent blockage.

BENDS

It is recommended to have the least amount of bends in

the discharge pipe work. These bends should not be 90˚

elbows as they restrict the flow. Use two 45˚ bends

back-to-back as this would create a smoother flow.

VERTICAL INSTALLATION

All vertical lifts should begin as closely as possible to

the discharge elbow. Therefore any horizontal run from

the discharge elbow should not exceed 12–18 inches.

(Except for Saniswift and Sanicubic as their discharge

is directly up and not across.)

EASY ACCESS

The macerating and gray water pump units should be

accessible and removable in the event that maintenance

is required. During installation, a “full-port” ball valve

may be fitted at the lowest portion of the vertical pipe.

This would facilitate the process if the discharge pipe

needs to be drained for any reason.

GRAVITY FALL

Gray water from other sanitary fixtures may drain into

the pump units by gravity. Therefore, all pipe work

connected into our unit must have a positive gravity fall

of at least 1/4 Inch per foot. Horizontal discharge pipe

work must also have a positive gravity fall to allow for

free drainage when the pump stops its cycle.

DIRECT FALL

When the point of discharge into the soil stack is

significantly lower than the macerating pump unit, as in

one or two stories, an anti-siphon valve may need to be

fitted at the highest point in the pipe run to avoid

siphoning of the water seal.

INIMUM SIZE DISCHARGE PIPE

All the pump units must have a minimum of three feet of

the required size of discharge pipe before transitioning

o a larger pipe size. This transition can only be

implemented in the last horizontal pitched discharge

line. This will allow the pump to operate for an

adequate period of time to ensure efficient waste

reduction.

SOIL STACK CONNECTION

The discharge pipe must be connected to the soil stack

by an appropriate and approved connection.

PIPE WORK MATERIAL

All discharge pipe work should be made out of ridged

copper or PVC/CPVC (schedule 40). Do not use flexible

or semi-flexible pipe.

FLUSHING

The Saniflush System requires a minimum of 1.6 gallons

(6 liters) of water to clean the pump satisfactorily. Our

self contained units require a minimum of 1 gallon

(4 liters) of water.

DISCHARGE

It is illegal to discharge into an open drain, ditch or

manhole. The waste needs to be pumped into a sewer

system, septic or holding tank.

FREEZING

Ensure all discharge pipe work susceptible to freezing is

adequately insulated. The toilet and pump units must be

properly winterized in un-heated buildings.

ELECTRICAL

All pumps are recommended to be connected to a

ground fault circuit interrupter. Before attempting any

servicing or maintenance the unit must be disconnected

from the power supply.

UPHILL PIPE RUNS

All “horizontal” pipe runs should be self-draining. Uphill

or sloped pipe runs are not recommended as the solids

(no matter how small) will settle in the lowest portion of the

pipe run and may eventually block the pipe.
