Sanigrind, based on the best-selling Sanibest

The Sanigrind is a grinder unit only and is designed to work with a standard bottom outlet toilet. The beauty of the Sanigrind is the opportunity for the contractor or homeowner to select any model or color of toilet they wish.The Sanigrind is based on the best selling Sanibest unit and it will also dispose of waste water from a handbasin, bathtub and a laundry washer as well. (Note: washing machine must drain to a laundry sink or tub first).

The Sanigrind unit discharges the effluent through a 3/4-inch diameter pipe into a sanitary gravity drain. The unit is installed on the floor, while the toilet, bath or shower, and handbasin must be situated on a raised platform. The toilet uses only 6 liters (1.6 USG) of water per flush.

The Sanigrind macerating system is comprised of a pressure chamber, which starts and stops the unit, and the motor, which drives the stainless steel macerator blades and pump. To learn more about the macerating process please refer to What is a macerator? A normal operating cycle for Sanibest takes about 10–20 seconds depending upon the discharge pipe run configuration; power consumption is therefore minimal.

Use Sanigrind for additional fixtures or appliances


In addition to the toilet waste, Sanigrind will also discharge gray wastewater from a variety of other sanitary fixtures, such as: a hand basin, a bath, a bidet, a urinal and even a clothes washer (Note: washing machine must drain to a laundry sink or tub first).

Wastewater from other fixtures is discharged into Sanigrind via two 1½-inch inlets, on either side of the housing. Either one or both inlets can be used as required. The discharge elbow on top of the Sanigrind can be turned either to the left or to the right, depending on the discharge installation.

The Sanigrind must only be used for human waste and toilet tissue. It is however designed to grind up other items that may accidentally be flushed down the toilet such as strands of wool, sanitary napkins, condoms, but not dental floss, cat litter or disposable diapers, nor is the Sanigrind to be used as a pump for the kitchen sink.

The Sanigrind is designed to provide vertical pumping up to 18 feet as well as a horizontal discharge, therefore a simple ball non-return valve is incorporated. This allows you to install a complete bathroom where previously this would have been impossible or where considerable capital equipment and structural work would have been necessary.
