Why a Macerator Pump for the Basement?

In a basement bathroom, plumbing options are limited. Not only is adding new plumbing expensive, but getting basement plumbing to work with gravity can be a major challenge. Luckily - there’s another option: a macerator pump for the basement bathroom.

Macerator pumps work by collecting waste from sinks, toilets, and showers, grinding them into a fine slurry, and pumping them up, against gravity, to your home’s main plumbing stack. Because they sit on top your concrete floors, macerator pumps don’t require any major construction to install and are inexpensive and easy to use.
