SaniCOMPACT: Self-Contained Upflush Toilet


SaniCOMPACT Upflush Kit Includes

  1. SaniCOMPACT self-contained toilet bowl and macerating system

SaniCOMPACT Benefits

The SaniCOMPACT is a system that is used to install a half bathroom up to 9 feet below the sewer line, or even up to 100 feet away from a soil stack. The SaniCOMPACT is designed to connect with:

  1. This SaniCOMPACT Uplush Toilet
  2. Any Sink
The SaniCOMPACT is a combination of a vitreous china toilet bowl and macerator/pump built into one compact unit.  This modern shaped self-contained china toilet is especially designed with several ideas in mind:

  • For situations where there is not enough space.
  • As a toilet that uses a minimum amount of water.
  • As a toilet for use with people that have physical limitations.

SaniCOMPACT Installation

The SaniCOMPACT is the simplest of all upflush toilets to install; there are just three connections.

  1. The toilet tank is connected to the water supply. 
  2. The macerating/pump is connected to the small diameter discharge pipe work. 
  3. The macerating/pump is connected to the electrical supply. 
Then optionally connect the discharge pipes from the sink.

SaniCOMPACT Function

The SaniCOMPACT needs no gravity flow tank as the flushing action and macerating pump cycle is automatic after pressing a push button on top of the bowl.  The flushing mechanism is electrically timed to allow water to pass through the toilet.

By pressing the push button, this activates a timer and a solenoid valve in order to fill and wash the sides of the bowl.  The motor starts and the waste and paper are sucked inside where it is macerated and pumped away.  The motor stops after approximately 10-15 seconds and the timer programs the refill of the bowl with fresh water.

The inside of the SaniCOMPACT comprises of a pressure switch and circuit board assembly, which starts and stops the unit, and the motor, which drives the blade and the pump.  The motor is sealed for life in an oil filled enclosure.  A common spindle/shaft drives the impeller and the macerator blades.  The moving parts therefore are kept to an absolute minimum.  Water and organic waste matter, enter the chamber and are reduced to slurry as the macerator blades rotate at 3600 RPM.  The reduced solids are picked up and the impeller mounted beneath the motor ejects the waste.  The unit pumps the effluent upward to 9 feet and/or 100 feet horizontally (with gravity fall).

The discharge elbow on the back of the SaniCOMPACT can be rotated 360 degrees to fit any type of installation required.  A non-return valve, which comes already assembled on the discharge elbow, prevents back flow into the unit. 

The SaniCOMPACT is a forced main and does not need to vented and connected to a vent stack.  Other fixtures may need to be vented as per local plumbing codes. It is also highly recommended for the macerator/pump to be connected to a Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI) circuit.

The SaniCOMPACT has been certified to American and Canadian Standards.  Macerating standard; US: CSA Certified - ASME A112.3.4, CA: Macerating Standard CSA B45.9. 

SaniCOMPACT Water Conservation

The SaniCOMPACT uses much less water than a regular toilet. The standard dual flush version uses 1.28 gpf (4.8 lpf) and 1 gpf (3.8 lpf).  To choose either option, the unit is provided with a dual push button.  This option allows using less water than any regular toilet but with the same efficiency.

    Totally agree with David. I read your first review and I didn't realize this unit did NOT NEED VENTING (its self-venting!). That’s what sold me because the vent hook up was always my problem. Defintiley why I think this unit is better than all the other options. And if you need to add a bath or shower down the line, get one of the smaller pumps (sanishower or vite) in additon to this sanicompact. I think thats the best combo.

    I installed this unit in Nov. 2012, and the unit if functioning well for me. I have it installed in my basement. In adding to a previous review regarding the discharge pipe, at the time of my installation i was told a 1" sweep or long elbow was not available in regular white schedule 40 pvc. by a Home Depot salesperson. I had to go to a 1-1/2" sweep elbow and use 1-1/2" to 1" reducers. Not being happy with this configuration using reducers which cause turbulance, i was at a Ace Hardware telling the salesman of my situation. He told me to use schedule 40 gray electrical conduit, which is made in a sweep or long elbow, and the same material. I removed the 1-1/2" and replaced it with the 1" gray electrical pvc sweep elbow, coupling it with regular white pvc couplings. The operation is much quieter and smoother now. I also added a pvc shutoff valve to the line above the elbow for easier servicing. No one seems to know why a sweep elbow in 1" white pvc is not made. Hope this information will help someone making a similar installation.

    I replaced an old Hi Lo Upflush unit with a SaniCompact. This unit is much quieter and doesn't require venting as some others do. Installation was pretty simple as i already had the plumbing in from the old unit, just had to reduce the discharge size from 2" to 1". The only problems i had was getting the clamps to seal on the discharge piping. I replaced the clamps with a better quality and applied silicone sealant to the inside and outside of the mating surfaces, and this seemed to solve the leak problems.
