SANITARY INLETS
In addition to the large inlet on the front of the unit that's designed for a toilet, the
macerating unit is equipped with two additional 2" inlets, one on either side of the
case. The macerating unit is connected to the drainpipes of sanitary fittings in the
toilet and bathroom via two inlets. These inlets are designed with an internal check
valve and located one on each side of the unit. If one of the inlets is not being used at
the moment, ensure you seal it off via the plugs provided in the product’s packaging.
These inlets, which incorporate an internal check valve, are used to connect the
drainpipe of other sanitary fixtures to the macerating unit.
Before connecting your sanitary fixture to the macerating unit via any of these inlets, a
suitable platform height must be established for the fixture. This height serves to
ensure that the minimum gravity flow required for the macerating unit to effectively
function can be achieved. The platform height is simply the distance between the P-
trap of the sanitary fixture and the macerating unit. Once this height is obtained, a
platform for the fixture can be built and its P-trap installed.
BATHTUB
Any regular bathtub can be used, as only the drainpipe connects to the macerating
unit. When installing a bathtub. a platform can be constructed from 2 X 8-inch
lumber, and the tub placed on the platform. This provides the required clearance for
the tub’s P-trap and aids the connection of its drainpipe to the macerating unit via
the sanitary inlet.
SHOWER STALL
For a regular shower, the same applies, as a 2 x 8-inch lumber platform can be
constructed for the shower stall. However, if the shower purchased is not the regular
type, a specially-raised base can be installed to achieve the same purpose.
Note: Platform height. The actual distance between the p-trap of the additional fixture
and the macerating unit determines the necessary clearance to install the p-trap and
elevation required to ensure a minimum gravity flow of 1/4-inch per foot.
Caution: The bottom of your shower stall must be at a height of at least 7 inches from
the ground before connecting the shower to the macerating unit.
