Easier and cost-effective solution to creating a spare bathroom(NC)-There comes a time in every household when having additional bathrooms makes sense. Yet, the thought of costly and messy renovations is enough to discourage even the most committed. "Our household is chaotic, with our teenagers and their friends coming and going," says Fred Smith "We needed a spare bathroom in the basement TV and games room which had become their hang out. But space was tight, and without plumbing in place we were nervous about renovation costs."
In an effort to find a solution that was not going to lead to
major and costly renovations, they began a search on the Internet. There
they learned about Saniflo a macerating toilet system.
"The flexibility of the macerating toilet meant we could turn the unused space under the stairs into a powder room" he says, adding, "My wife also thought to turn the closet in the guest room into a powder room. It made sense as my elderly mother comes to stay with us, and having access to a powder room so close gave her comfort, while also providing her with privacy. Incredible. We went to a three bathroom house in just one day." Macerating technology is relatively new to North America yet it was developed over 50 years ago by the France based SFA Saniflo. Today, the company markets its macerating systems through more than 500 distributor locations throughout the United States and Canada. The Saniflo product looks like a conventional toilet but can be installed virtually anywhere with access to water and electricity. Its "above-floor" technology with no need to damage floors or walls, uses a rotating cutting blade to convert waste and toilet paper into a slurry that is flushed through narrow diameter piping into the sewer or septic system. The macerator pump is fully enclosed, sealed for life and requires no maintenance. In addition, a macerating system can handle just a toilet or all the fixtures, including sink, shower and tub. It is also easily installed. In many homes, the plumbing makes it impractical or impossible to add a spare bathroom. In others, a lack of space is an obstacle. In either case, a macerating toilet system is the ideal solution. It can be added anywhere from basement to garage, to the attic or even to a closet or nook under a stairway.
