What is a macerating toilet
-
A toilet with pump is a toilet equipped with an inbuilt pump capable of lifting wastewater by pumping it higher up the drain. This type of toilet is designed to break through the constraints of traditional toilets that must rely on gravity to drain, so it can be installed and operate efficiently regardless of the design space of the bathroom.
💡 Save water and the environment: the resource-saving benefits of pumped toilets
-
Compared to some older toilets, which require large amounts of water for flushing, pump toilets usually require only a small amount of water for a good flush. This means that not only is there a saving in the amount of water used on a daily basis, but it also reduces the burden on the sewage system, further improving the environmental performance of the home.
-
In addition, many toilets with pumps are equipped with a dual-flush system that allows the user to choose whether to use less or more water, depending on actual needs. This design not only enhances the convenience of life, but also effectively reduces the waste of water, responding to the global concern about the increasing water stress.
💡 Flexible installation: the pumped toilet breaks through traditional installation limitations.
-
The flexible installation of a pumped toilet makes it particularly suitable for older homes or in environments where space is limited. Conventional toilets usually need to be aligned with the main drainage system on the floor, but a pumped toilet can pump sewage to a drain further away or higher up.
- Example: If you want to add a bathroom in the basement, attic or away from existing drains, a toilet with a pump can easily do so. You don't have to do any major remodelling or digging up the ground, you just need to connect the toilet to the pump system and then to the plumbing system.
💡 Efficient drainage: modern technology for a better quality of life
-
The pump system of a toilet with pump not only drains water efficiently, but also reduces the possibility of clogging. Thanks to the pump, waste water and solids are quickly broken up and discharged, reducing the risk of clogging that can easily occur in conventional toilets. This makes routine cleaning and maintenance much easier.
- In addition, some high-end toilets with pumps are equipped with devices to prevent the spread of odours, further enhancing the comfort of the bathroom.
💡 Noise control: a quieter home living environment
-
Many people may be concerned that a pumped system will add to the noise problem, but in fact, modern pumped toilet technology has greatly improved the noise control system. Today's toilets are often equipped with a silent pump design, so that the sound of the pump's work is barely audible during operation, and does not interfere with the rest of the family's normal routine.
