Sanipack creates a European style bathroom

The Sanipack is built into a wall cavity provided by a concealed frame system. The reservoir is also built into the wall and all the user sees is a large push button that activates the flush. The Sanipack is a system that is used to install a complete bathroom up to 9 feet below the sewer line, or even up to 100 feet away from a soil stack.

Note: the toilet bowl and wall carrier are supplied by other manufacturers. Sanipack can be used with any North American wall-hung toilet system, for example the Glenwall Toilet from American Standard, the Rexmont Toilet from Crane or the Walford Toilet, Model 091-7925 from Eljer, and the carrier from Zurn.

Since the reservoir, the macerating pump and the pipes are hidden from view, this type of installation gives you the lean and clean look of a European bathroom or powder room. The toilet uses only 6 liters (1.6 USG) of water per flush. The Sanipack is simplicity itself to install; there are just four connections:

• The macerating pump is connected to the discharge pipe coming from the wall hung toilet.
• The toilet tank is connected to the water supply.
• The macerating pump is connected to small diameter discharge pipe work.
• The macerating pump is connected to electrical supply.

The Sanipack 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 Sanipack takes about 10–20 seconds depending upon the discharge pipe run configuration; power consumption is therefore minimal.

Use Sanipack for additional bathroom fixtures

In addition to the toilet waste, Sanipack will also discharge gray wastewater from a variety of other sanitary fixtures, such as: a hand basin, shower, a bidet or a urinal. When adding a shower, a base will have to be constructed made out of 2" x 6" on edge (or 2" x 8" is recommended, if you have sufficient headroom). This allows for the installation of a P-trap and some gravity flow towards the pump unit.

Wastewater from other fixtures is discharged into Sanipack 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 Sanipack can be turned either to the left or to the right, depending on the discharge installation.

The Sanipack is designed to provide vertical pumping up to 9 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.
