    Hi

    These have to be your last option,

    For:-

    - ideal for basement conversions
    - cheap alternative to drain modifications
    - easy to install anywhere
    - pumped to vertical discharge

    Against:-

    - noisy
    - high maintenance
    - if it blocks, poo comes out of every plug hole
    - poor life expectancy
    - easy way out
    - asking for trouble
    - renowned to block with over flow pipe use
    - no one want to clean them they are filth

    the advantages are, you can have a toilet almost anywhere, saniflo have their dedicated team who will sort out any problems in the in guarantee period, they will come to your house and fix it providing its not because somebodies stuck a toy/paper cup or any other forbidden fruit down there, the disadvantage is, after the guarrantee period if it goes wrong its a dirty job and don't call me :(

    nay nay nay and thrice nay KIAB, when i was born we had middins, they were a hole in the ground where you did the business and the council emptied then every month, the lads doing that job would have never have dreamed about a little box doing their job,

    Only time I would even consider using a **** shredder would perhaps be to service a shower cubical or basin that had an impossible run.
    I was told the concept is French, just another way to get back at us for Agincourt!:eek:
