However, as a major player in the industry, we recognise that our social and ecological responsibility is important and we proudly display our colours in this by compliance with ISO9001 and ISO1001 standards. One of the great advantages of Saniflo macerators and pumps is being able to discharge at a very small diameter (22-32 mm for the vast majority of products, with some large pumps like the Sanicubic or the Sanifos line using DN50 and DN100), thereby avoiding major remodelling. This unit has been designed with a vent connection on the lid. All plumbing codes require connection to a vent system. Please note that the vent system should be a two-way air vent. The use of mechanical vents, air admittance valves or similar devices are not permitted as these are considered one-way air vent systems.A Saniflo macerator may indeed be installed, even if you have a septic tank. The macerator's action on waste materials is mechanical (maceration and pumping) only, with no chemicals involved whatsoever. It can therefore be used with a septic tank.
