Basement bathroom's challenge: It will have to flush UP
Dear Glenn: We are installing a bathroom in the basement and the sewer line is above the basement floor. How do I get the waste discharge to go up to the sewer line?
-- Jon, Romeo
Dear Jon: All you need to do is flush up hill. The Saniflo -- www.saniflo.com, (800) 363-5874 -- toilet uses a pump mechanism to transport the waste up to the sewer line.
