Buy a SFA Saniflo toilet

The SFA Saniflo toilet allows one to place an appliance in a location where there is no direct connection to drainage or sewage. Think of a toilet or an entire bathroom. The SFA Saniflo toilet can be used both in basements and on higher floors for transferring your waste water to the sewage system.

What is the origin of the Saniflo pump?

The Saniflo macerator pump is a product from French manufacturer SFA Group. Since 1958, the company's goal is to simplify the installation of toilets and bathrooms, avoiding any major works. Within a short period of time, Saniflo has become a household name when it comes to sanitary facilities. The company has even become one of the global market leaders. All SFA Saniflos toilets are produced in the Saniflo factory in Brégy, France. By doing so, the company is in control of the entire production process and quality can be safeguarded.

How does a Saniflo macerator pump work?

The Saniflo macerator is placed directly behind a toilet. Moreover, some models also allow connection to multiple water-consuming applications. The SFA Saniflo toilet is a simple plastic drain tray, containing a waste water pump resistant to faecal matter and toilet paper. 

As soon as a certain water level in the drain tray is reached, the Saniflo pump automatically starts processing and draining the contents of the tray. The contents is transferred through the drainage pipe, towards the connected sewage system. As soon as the tray is empty, the Saniflo macerator pump automatically turns itself off. As soon as the SFA Saniflo toilet fills up again, the Saniflo pump starts and the process repeats itself.

What makes a SFA Saniflo toilet useful?

Are you planning on installing an (additional) toilet, bathroom, washing machine or other water-consuming appliance in your home?
