Opel Fruit<P><BR>Opel Fruit, Dept. 53<P> Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 Macerator toilets (pan, cistern and macerator combined), and the stand-alone units which will also take sink/shower waste are available form most Bricos and Merchants. Prices vary from circa 200 Euros for the basic standalone units to upwards of 500 Euro for top-end combined units with enclosures and accessories. Shop around for deals.SFA, who make the "Saniflo" range are French. There are other makes, of course.Make sure the guidance provided with the unit on the outlet pipe limitations are taken seriously..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moulin Neuf Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 We have just bought one at Castorama - €279 and since seen one at Bricomarche €259. It was very easy to install ourselves and works well. Jan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opalienne Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 We got ours in Leroy Merlin. They are called 'sani broyeur'. I think we paid around €250. However, ours went wrong a few times and eventually we called a plumber who fitted a new one - don't know where he got it from - that cost rather more and looked more substantial (I think it was about €450 including the fitting) and we have had no trouble since.

Jc Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 We considered using one in our house in the UK but our builder said not to;he said they keep him in employment and it's an unpleasant and can be awkward job taking them apart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No macerator is quiet - remember that, if someone flushes the loo at 3 in the morning, it could wake the dead.Don't use stand-alone macerators with cheap loos, the chasse d'eau (the siphon, if they siphoned) will leak a small amount of water & cause the macerator to go off at odd times.We have recently removed 2 macerators, as we got sick of them - running a "proper" waste was difficult but not impossible.

Opel Fruit<P><BR>Opel Fruit, Dept. 53<P> Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 Small-minded builder.Provided, as I mentioned above, the thing is fitted correctly, there are normally no problems. And stick to known brands.Which rather suggests something about certain "builders". Wide berth coming up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
