APPLICATIONS

Example of installation. Follow local plumbing codes for actual install.

The Sanivite drain pump is used to pump gray water away from a variety of fixtures in
commercial and residential applications. The system is able to discharge the waste up
RESIDENTIAL COMMERCIAL to 16 feet vertical and/or 150 feet horizontal. This model was designed to sustain the
residential and commercial applications as it is capable of handling hot water and grease.

Discharges the waste through a 1”, 1-1/4” or 1-1/2” rigid pipe. A non-return valve is
included on the discharge elbow assembly provided with the system. This elbow can be
rotated 360 degrees depending on the discharge installation.
Has been designed with a 1–1/2” vent connection on top of the lid. All plumbing codes
require connection to a vent system. Either inlet located on top of the housing can be
used for the vent or as an inlet. Please note that the vent system should be a two-way
air vent as air needs to freely flow both ways. Note: The use of mechanical vents, air
admittance valves or similar devices is not permitted.
Discharges gray water from a kitchen sink, bath/shower, dishwasher, washing machine
(indirect connection via laundry sink). The gray water will drain into the system via three
inlets, two 2” inlets (with built-in check valves) on either side of the housing and one
1–1/2” inlet on top of the enclosure.
