As the function of the units is to pump waste and water away, it should not usually be necessary to dig up the floor to lay the discharge pipework. It is possible to run the pipework from low level to a higher level e.g. from a basement to ground floor level, or from 1st floor up into a roofspace and then join to a soil stack
Correctly used and installed Saniflo units should not emit any smells. The latest models also have a carbon filter incorporated into the air inlet valve.
We also recommend a regular cleaning routine to keep your Saniflo in optimum condition.
Follow the procedure below:
1. Remove fuse or switch off power to unit
2. Fill a bucket with about 8 - 9 litres of water, pour a strong dose of dissinfectant, spirit of salts, or Saniflo Ltd descaler into the bucket of water. (ask your local Saniflo supplier for details of the descaler).
3. Pour into WC pan.
4.Leave for about 1-2 hours
5. Switch power on, allowing unit to pump out, flush WC
