What Do Macerators Do?

Macerators are designed to pump away waste materials from toilets, as well as other waste waters without depending on a regular drainage system. They are often used in bathrooms which are far away from mains drainage systems.

What are the benefits of a macerator?

Environmentally Friendly. Pulpmatic macerators break down recycled paper products into tiny particles and disposes of them directly into the waste system reducing the need for landfill. Short cycle times resulting in low water and electricity consumption also help to reduce the environmental impact.

Can you poop in a macerator toilet?

The simple answer is that yes you can poop in a Saniflo toilet. As with normal toilet systems you can put any organic waste into the toilet bowl and use the flush mechanism to remove it—which includes toilet paper—although like a standard toilet too much toilet paper can lead to blockages occurring.
