SANIFLO 021 SANISWIFT

For me, I use this under a sink in my wet bar, I do not have floor drain lines, as, mine are located 3 feet off the floor. My Saniflo pumps the “waste Water” from the sink through 40’ of 3/4” PVC pipe. It works excellent. This is my third unit in the past 6 years. What I have learned from past experiences and why I’ve been through 3 of them, is, this pump is NOT a grinder pump, don’t expect it to chew up food, it’s not a garbage disposal. 2nd, since it does not just flow downward to a gravity drain like the rest of your home, it actually needs to PUMP the fluid, so don’t keep pouring sugary type drinks into it(like soda) or other, even beer and alcohol WITHOUT running water with it. If you do, the sugar base will foul the internal float and prevent it from turning on and the fluids will back up in your sink. YOU MUST RUN WATER WHEN POURING ANYTHING IN THE DRAIN OTHER THAN WATER ITSELF. Trust me, I’ve replaced 2 of these already. If you watch what goes into it, your good to go. I do now. I have no issues with cold water. I have no issues with hot water. I have no issues with the “Pumping” noise it makes. The Saniflo works great. Buy it, you won’t be disappointed.

easy installation, good performance

Works great but noisy. I use it for the sink and washing machine.

Installed quickly and easily, works great to drain my washing machine. I even use the sink to wash out work things and its still going strong. Loud, but it only runs when water is going into it so its not a big deal. Can't wait to see how long it lasts. Anyone with common sense should be able to plumb it in, and with a little know how, you can use 1 inch PEX for the drain line, makes it a lot easier than having to plumb PVC in.

Works well and as intended. It is a bit noisier than anticipated, but otherwise does the job.
