Has Anyone Used An Upflush Toilet System?

SuperiorBuilt

I have a customer who wants to install an Upflush Toilet system in his basement. It is not a sewage injector pump which is buried in the floor. It is a pump located behind the toilet which also pumps the waste up to the main drain. The difference is there is no concrete slab to break up. Does anyone have any experience with this system?
Thanks for the info

I've installed 3 or 4 of the "Saniplus" units from Saniflo: I tried to post a link, but apparently I'm not allowed since I haven't made 15 total posts yet?!?!?

I haven't gotten a single service call on any of them. So...they seem to work well enough, but they're kind of ugly, and they are fairly loud. As long as the HO is aware of those things, then they'll probably be happy with it.

Just finished installing the Quik Jon from zoeller in my basement and it works great. Really isn't that loud and only runs after 4 or 5 flushes. Need to allow access to the back for the pump but can build up floor with 2x6's and with flange extensions and the floor/wall treatment of your choice, unit is not even visible at the toilet.

I've wired a good many. All of the models that I've come across so far require GFCI protection, so just a head's up on that.
