If you do not follow the instructions supplied with your macerator then don’t expect the machine to perform in the way it was designed for, if installed correctly and used what it was designed for you can get many years of use from your machine 10 years or more depending on usage.
We recommend having your Saniflo Serviced or cleaned out once a year to keep it running smoothly especially a Sanivite, Sanipro and Saniplus as they can accumulate a lot of gunge and can start to smell like sewage after a few years.
