Discrete and practical. This is the best solution to use if your new toilet in the en-suite shower room is too far away from that black 4″ pipe called a soil pipe and is normally located near your existing bathroom on the out side wall.The word macerate means to soften, break and pump the excrement from your new toilet to the soil pipe. This is done under pressure a bit like an airplane toilet and if you buy a cheap macerater it will sound like that too.

Saniflo’s system liquefies the waste along with the toilet paper and chops it all into a fine slush whilst pumping it through a new 22mm pipe untill it reaches the soil stack.

This system now allows consumers/architects to design the lofts however they want without the hassle of maximum distances between the soil pipe and proposed toilet/shower room.

There not perfect though, the sound of a macerater isn’t pleasant and it is always best to try and avoid them if possible.
