What are macerators, and what do they do?

Macerators are sanitation devices that work as wastewater grinders. They’re often used in bathroom plumbing, such as toilets and sinks, to break down solid waste. The wastewater is then pumped to the sewage drainage system. Macerators are relatively easy to install on an existing toilet. They are compatible with all sewage drainage systems, including septic tanks.

A macerator pump can be used in bathrooms with no connection to the drainage system. That means they’re useful in basements or outbuildings, which may not have been built to house a toilet or sink. They’re often installed in boats and motorhomes too, where there is no gravitational pull to move waste along.
