Hi all, I'm trying to add a toilet at the bottom of the garden, it will have a fall for 13 meters and then go up 400mm then into underground soil pipe. What saniflo do I need or has someone done this before that can help

I have this in my garden office.
But I did it with no fall for 20m and then into gravity soil pipe which I ran up the garden, underground, as far as I could whilst still remaining subsurface.

You need to look at the macerator MI's to see what distances they can cope with. Usually, they quote a vertical rise and then a horizontal run, I don't think it would work the other way as the pump pressure would diminish before the vertical rise.

You may be able to use gravity soil pipe for the 13m run then use a lifting station at the end of that to get it up the 400mm.

@just pumps may know more about suitability.

A very expensive Saniflo is the immediate answer as the everage model will not cope with the lift after 13m but it is an over kill for your project. best is a small lifting station buried underground.

Might be over kill but this would do the job for you. We had one in the previous house
