Saniflo or Sanicompact, which one to choose?
There are two types of macerators that can meet different layout problems:
Saniflo range: a macerator placed behind a toilet with a horizontal outlet. Some models accept waste water from several sanitary facilities (toilet, sink, shower, bidet) to install a complete bathroom. (Requires a power outlet).
Sanicompact: ceramic bowl with an integrated macerator, designed for small spaces (installation without water tank). A sink connection can be supplied as standard or as an option to create proper cloakroom. The sanicompact requires an electrical outlet and a water supply system.

How to maintain a macerator toilet?
It is advisable to regularly clean and descale your macerator.
Saniflo descaler is especially designed to clean the inside of the appliance without damaging the internal components. This formula is also suitable for septic tanks.
It is recommended to descale monthly when the water is very hard, every 3 months when the water is hard or every 6 months when the water is very soft. Pour ½ container of Saniflo descaler into the toilet bowl, flush once and leave for 2 hours or overnight. Then flush through twice more and your macerator will be clean and working more efficiently.
