SFA SANIFLO - Saniswift - Gray Water Drain Pump - Efficient Indoor/Outdoor Solution - Powerful 1/3 HP Design - 4 Years Warranty - Certified CSA (IPC, NSPC) - Made In France

For me, I use this under a sink in my wet bar, I do not have floor drain lines, as, mine are located 3 feet off the floor. My Saniflo pumps the “waste Water” from the sink through 40’ of 3/4” PVC pipe. It works excellent. This is my third unit in the past 6 years. What I have learned from past experiences and why I’ve been through 3 of them, is, this pump is NOT a grinder pump, don’t expect it to chew up food, it’s not a garbage disposal. 2nd, since it does not just flow downward to a gravity drain like the rest of your home, it actually needs to PUMP the fluid, so don’t keep pouring sugary type drinks into it(like soda) or other, even beer and alcohol WITHOUT running water with it. If you do, the sugar base will foul the internal float and prevent it from turning on and the fluids will back up in your sink. YOU MUST RUN WATER WHEN POURING ANYTHING IN THE DRAIN OTHER THAN WATER ITSELF. Trust me, I’ve replaced 2 of these already. If you watch what goes into it, your good to go. I do now. I have no issues with cold water. I have no issues with hot water. I have no issues with the “Pumping” noise it makes. The Saniflo works great. Buy it, you won’t be disappointed.

Works just like described. Using it to drain my laundry tub, washing machine and shower in my basement. The only thing I wish it had was some adjustment on how soon it kicks in as it turns on and off quite often due to the fact that it keeps way ahead of anything draining into it.

Great pump but came with a defective back flow valve that kept letting water back in it, so it kept pumping over and over, so I put my own valve in.

This is a great little pump if it worked. It wouldn't trip on with water and just leaked from the top. After calling tech support.... open the top by removing the two Torx 20 screws and pressing out the four tabs, starting with the front. This will take a large flat screw driver unless you have fingers of steel. My gasket was laying in the bottom of the tank. (explains leaking around the top) and the bottom was off the impeller housing. The gasket goes on the lid. Great! ... but assembled, still wouldn't trigger on. Apparently the electronic board was damaged because of not having a gasket in place. I could get it to fire by plugging it in and out, but only for seconds. I think this is a good device, and am going to reorder. Wish me luck. Check out my pictures. Reuse grey water. The fittings are irregular because it deals with drain pipe as opposed to water delivery sizes (inside or outside pipe dimensions. No problem, the fittings are available, look for rubber couplings with clamps. The big box building stores have them. Use pvc reducing adapters and Teflon tape to make a good transition, even on slip fittings to rubber. It will prevent leaks. Be sure to use a two way vent pipe or (aka open stack) on top left or top right opening. Outlet in top middle only. Be sure to insert the 1" rubber washer that comes with it. Use solid pipe on the outlet for good reason. Lots of torque. Empty your washing machine into a sink, connect to the drain and into the side inlet with the provided adapter. (Teflon tape and clamp)

Installed quickly and easily, works great to drain my washing machine. I even use the sink to wash out work things and its still going strong. Loud, but it only runs when water is going into it so its not a big deal. Can't wait to see how long it lasts. Anyone with common sense should be able to plumb it in, and with a little know how, you can use 1 inch PEX for the drain line, makes it a lot easier than having to plumb PVC in.

Replaced an old sump pump based system supporting a washing machine and slop sink with this Sanliflow SANISWIFT. The unit has been operating flawlessly for a couple of months now. It does have a smaller tank so it cycles more often than what I replaced but it is not too loud and I hardly notice it now. I have it pumping up to a sewer line around 5' from the floor with no issues. July 2021 - Just wanted to provide a quick update. Unit is still going strong after years of multiple loads of wash per week.

Amazing. My air conditioning unit required a hose to run across the middle of my basement floor to the drain. My basement is now finished, and I was able to run a hose around the perimeter of the basement, behind the walls, from the air conditioner to the drain. The pump pushes the water through the hose, uphill and around corners. No more ugly hose down the middle of my living space. It was VERY easy to install, just need an outlet nearby.

The pump itself works really well. Two issues bring the review down. First, the check valve is really low quality (we are concerned about failure) and is prone to leaking around the clamps. The second problem is that the cord is really short. We would have preferred to pug it in further away from the sink. Yes, we put this on a outlet that will trip off it it gets wet, but I would rather have installed thae outlet well away from where it could get wet from the sink and far from the crappy check valve. In both cases, these issues are simply an issue of cutting corners with quality.

Works excellent, well worth the money. Used for basement bar sink- quiet as well

Installer sous-sol sous évier cuisine, facile à installer. Je le recommande

Solves the below grade drain problem for my laundry. Working without problems for over six months

Bought this pump to use for a shower and it keeps up with no issues. It does operate a little louder than expected but this could easily be remedied by isolating it in a sound deadening enclosure since the size is quite small. Installation was pretty straight forward with a good set of instructions.

It works very well for a sink or a garden hose on full but unable to keep up with the clothes washing machine drain.
