What is RV Sani con?
As the name suggests, Sani-Con® Turbo 600S is a waste disposal system that permanently mounts in your RV storage compartment. If you have a camper with enough pump clearance and easy access to gray and black water valve pulls, this is the right product for you.
How does SaniCon dump system work?
Both are equipped with a built-in macerator that liquefies the sewage and a pump that propels it out through the discharge hose. The SaniCon has the ability to pump the sewage further and to a higher elevation. To reach an extended distance dump, screw a ¾” garden hose where the 1” output cap fits.
What is a macerator pump?
A Macerator Pump is a kind of pump that is connected to a toilet (or in some cases included in the toilet itself if you buy a macerator toilet) that grinds up solid waste so that it can be pumped against gravity more effectively.
Why would I need a macerator?
Essentially, a macerator pumping station is a mechanical device used to remove foul water, sewage, and other wastewater – particularly when the force of gravity cannot be relied upon to do the job or where a connection to the property’s main sewage line is either difficult or impossible.
Are macerator pumps worth it?
This is where having an RV macerator pump can really be useful. Once the waste is liquified, the pump helps push the waste through the hose, making for a faster and more efficient dump. Many newer rigs come with a macerator pump built-in to the water system.
What is the advantage of a macerator pump?
Pros: Ability to pump waste up an incline or over a distance (as compared to a gravity drain hose) Lower potential for mess and less smell (this is because of the smaller diameter hose) More options for dumping locations because you can reach further and you can dump into sewer connections or even a toilet.
What is a black tank macerator?
Like a garbage disposal in a sticks-and-bricks home, the RV macerator will grind the waste from your black tank into a slurry that can more easily move through a sewer hose. Once the waste is liquified, the pump helps push the waste through the hose, making for a faster and more efficient dump.
Is a macerator necessary?
From my experience, you don’t need a macerator pump. The pump that pumps your tank overboard is often a macerator pump, but sometimes a diaphram pump. We had a $100 jabsco head on our previous boat. It worked great the three years we had it.
