With ours, we were putting in a Corning basement finishing system and the plumber put the box behind the wall in the unfinished space and you don't see it. In the picture on the page I sent, the macerator box is right behind the toilet. I can only share my experience, but it's been a great one. However, there have been weekends when there have been 12 kids sleeping down there and I was sure it was going to explode from being overwhelmed. It is definitely a basement powder room and does not get used as heavily as our upstairs bath. We have not had one issue with it.no leaks, no clogs, no odor, nothing. I have a great plumber and when we wanted to add a powder room in our basement, with the sewage line higher, he recommended this type of toilet.

On the vertical waste line from the ejector pit you are required to install a "backflow preventer" and slightly above that you are required to install a Manually operated gate valve, which could be closed to prevent back flow while servicing the backflow preventer or pump unit.

When installing the sewage ejection pump code requires that the receiver vessel MUST BE fitted with a removable air tight lid and a vent line from the vessel should be connected to the vent that is labeled for the sewage ejector. Or am I way off?Īlso - should I run a vent from the bathroom sink and combine with the vent from the S.E., and then connect to vent out of house?Ĭode requires that all the fixtures must be vented in the conventional manner and a sewage ejection pump assembly must have a separate dedicated vent through the roof, which may not be connected to any other vents in the structure.įrom your description it would appear that your rough-in was initially installed during the build, in which case the fixture venting would have been inspected and i would assume that it is good to go.īased upon your description the only thing you would need to do is install the fixtures and the sewage ejection pump assembly. vent drain as that would put the waste water into the pit. So how can I tap into the line that will be pumping up to the main drain, It seems I should be able to install a Y connector into the S.E. which I wonder how this could be possible.

The only place to drain is either up to the basement ceiling where all the waste lines run - which I don't think is possible w/o pump, or down to the sewage E.J.

Again - the wet bar is next to the wall where the room is for the S.E. and I know that is correct.Īfter reading your reply - I can say that I am pretty confused. the drawing I believe is pretty accurate - I poured the concrete basement - so I know where all the plumbing was (it was buried in pea stone, so the order of the 3 piece may be off) - however the long line I show is the waste pipe in the concrete going to the S.E.
