Saniflo toilets How does it work and how much space do you need?

Saniflo toilets function basically the same way a "normal" toilet works - you flush, but then the waste goes into a pump where it's macerated or grinded and then pumped up or over to your sewer line. These are great for basement bathrooms where you would normally have to either break the concrete or build a platform. Saniflo systems allow you to place the toilet right on the floor and you don't have to break concrete! As far as space goes, that depends on what type of bathroom you are planning - full bath with a shower/tub or a half bath with just a sink and a toilet. The pump itself doesn't take up any room as it sits behind the toilet, so if you have room for a toilet you have room for a Saniflo! www.SanifloStore.com

When adding another toilet 6 feet from an existing toilet do you need a new vent and would 3-inch pipe be sufficient?

where one toilet is draining to its own unshared line, the line can be 3" but once both toilets are draining to the same line, it needs to be 4". in other words, from the first toilet to the second toilet can be 3" but past the second toilet needs to be 4". there needs to be a vent downstream of the second toilet in the direction of flow if there is another fixture of any kind downstream of the two toilets.


Why would a toilet that has been working properly just stop flushing even though the tank and the bowl both fill up?

there can be many reasons and I will say my thoughts on just a few. 1. your toilet trap of the bowl is clogged with debris (toys, balls, etc) to fix = snake out toilet bowl or if necessary pull toilet bowl and snake backwards threw trap. 2. your tank flush flapper is closing to soon or your tank water level is not at right height to fix = change flapper or adjust water level height 3. your toilet arm before the vent is plugged because of back grade or debris clinging to the side of the drain pipe to test = pull toilet and run toilet water supply full on down threw toilet flange and see if any back flow. 4. your toilet main line is clogged from backgrade,roots,damaged pipe,etc but will let other fixtures slowly drain to test = camera toilet line from toilet flange out to street or septic or if no camera available then fill tub full and lav full and drain both at the same time and look at your lowest fixture trap to see if any back flow exists or open clean outs and if possible to see water flow .

Ace high flush in the board and two players have the same suited cards does they split the pot?

Nope, Ace is the highest form of flush, and its impossible for two players to have ace flushes on two different suits. So if you had an ace flush and somebody had a King flush or whatever, you'd get the whole pot. Or if the ace flush was out on the table, the person who got the pot would be the one with the highest card of the same suit

When taking shower and someone flushes toilet at same time the water in shower is scalding hot?

When you take a shower, you're mixing a combination of hot and cold water to make a comfortable temperature for the shower water. A toilet draws only off the cold water system. In older or poorly designed plumbing systems, when you flush the toilet, the cold water is pulled by toilet, so the water coming through the shower is only drawing from the hot water tank.

When you flush the first floor toilet it has an air bubble like a belch before it flushes It also sucks the water down twice like two flushes?

Hello, I cannot believe this is happening to another person. Our toilet has been doing this since we purchased and installed it. Ours spits out onto the floor with such great force and then flushes 3X's before it finishes. My husband blames me because it was a designer toilet and get this, it's been like this for 12 years. I think that there is an air-pocket because our floor isn't level (our house is over 50 years old) if that is or isn't the case ... please I would like to know if this toilet is ready for a trade in or can we fix it? Thank you and sorry about not being able to answer you question, but I would like to know the answer too. Perhaps now that there are 2 people that have the same problem, ... someone will answer our plea! Thank you OK i think that it's time to get a new toilet
