Every plumber has a story regarding a failed sewage pump. No customer likes to deal with backed-up sewage in their home to start with, and replacing a faulty pump often leads to an additional mess. However, with the launch of the Sanipit 24GR retrofit pump kit, Saniflo believes it has a reliable and hassle-free sewage pump replacement solution.
This retrofit pump kit offers a built-in 1 hp grinder motor and air pressure mechanism that fits most 24-inch basins. With the ability to retrofit into 24-inch basins from Liberty Pumps, Zoeller, and Myers, the pump kit offers versatility and compatibility with existing pump systems. The current basin stays in place while the Sanipit 24GR retrofit cover easily adapts to it.
“The U.S. retrofit pump market, particularly the cast iron pump segment, has lacked reliable options for installers,” says Regis Saragosti, CEO of SFA Saniflo North America. “Saniflo identified this opportunity and leveraged our innovative design team, extensive research and development capabilities, and vertical integration as a manufacturer to create a game-changing solution. The result is a complete preassembled pump design that delivers the same high level of reliability and performance as our macerator and grinder pumps.”
One of the key differentiators of the Sanipit 24GR is its ability to create a dry cavity within the pit. Its design keeps the components and the motor separate, ensuring a hassle-free and mess-free experience for plumbing installers and service technicians. It includes a 2-inch discharge rubber adapter with a built-in check valve and a 2-inch vent rubber connection, direct access points for motor and air pressure switch inspection and replacement, as well as inspection and cleaning of pressure drip tubes. Its failproof wastewater-sensing mechanism with triple redundancy provides added reliability. A gasket that protects against odor and sewer gas ensures a sanitary and worry-free operation. It allows for easy access for maintaining all major internal components, including motor, grinder blade and pressure switches. A built-in grinder motor and an efficient air pressure mechanism ensures smooth and uninterrupted wastewater flow, eliminating the hassle of frequent clogs and costly repairs. It offers pumping distance up to 25 feet.
“The U.S. market lacks a product that creates a dry cavity within the pit, one that delivers unparalleled cleanliness and ease of maintenance,” says Saragosti. “Our pump design embodies a failsafe, reliable and easy-to-use replacement solution for existing sewage pits.” 800-571-8191; www.saniflo.com
