Hi guys, just joined up, always end up reading on here when i google search problems i have but this one didnt come up. Im planning on fitting a Saniplus Saniflo system in my loft conversion to add in another bathroom. I dont have access to a soil pipe so using the Saniflo to pump it to the one on the other side of the house. Problem is the saniflo instructions say it must sit on the floor, behind the toilet, or less than 6 inches away at the same level meaning i would have to raise the shower approx 150mm off the ground to get a run into the side of the unit from the show but with it being a loft conversion, i only have 2m headroom as it is.
I tried to phone saniflo but the guy was less than helpful when i asked why it is that i couldnt lower the saniflo 2 inches below the floor level and run the toilet waste down into it behind the wall the toilets on, meaning i wouldnt have to build the shower up but he didnt answer me and was just cheeky saying because my warrantys void and its in the instructions. Whats the mechanical reason behind it? Only other thought was to run the shower waste into the gutter downpipe at the back, and only pump the sink and toilet waste across to the stack at the other side?
Sorry for the long post but im a joiner to trade, so its all fairly new to me. Cheers, Euan
