My mates asked me to swap a saniflo
They're not cheap to buy
It could be messy. He'll pay good money to do it.
Never fitted one. Hopefully straight swap, fingers crossed.

Used to take apart and clean out a Saniflo at my last place of work. Messy, smelly job, but someone had to do it. Usually got blocked by an unknown person/s putting wet wipes down the bloody toilet. Only happened about twice a year at most, but a thoroughly disgusting job all the same. At least you're only swapping like for like, so shouldn't be that difficult a job Rocky.  |

Woooahhhhhh...
Just been to the job, water, piss & shit everywhere.
Took toilet out, macerstor accessible, toilet, bath & basin connections. Pipe work has 90 bends which I'm sure isn't great. Nice little job for £300 labour
My mates ordering the unit.
Jubilee clip fastenings
Bingo
I'll take pics & post how it goes

It's what he offered me! It's rude to refuse. I need to buy a mop & bucket though. That's draining my profit but I'll put it through the books as expenditure!!
Yeahahhhh
Have you booked show tickets?

Ugggh! That's an awful job.
The last one I did went straight into a strong double thick bin linner !
Take some disinfectant mixed in a bucket with hot water with you (would be my tip).

I poured bleach all over the floor before I entered
Mopped it up. At least the smell was better.
When I undid the bath hose it flooded the bathroom with stinking water.
Seems easy to replace, toilet, bath & basin connections plus 3 wires.
£480 for a 400w that'll fit in.
Not my problem
The tenants are in a hotel for 3 days. Flats a shithole. DSS council cats.

Yep, I reckon if it was a clean swap I'd want £250
This is nasty so a £50 nasty charge has been levied!
More pics tomorrow after it's in and tested

Looks a shithole rocky must agree.
Inside that elbow on top of the saniflow will be a non return valve you'll have to put it back on the new one cause it won't clear the waste water completely without it.
Just thinking (it could save you a bit of head scratching tomorrow) ahead.

Cheers CF
I'm hoping the hoses will all go back on as they came off, that's my hope!
