Blocked Drains York

Are you experiencing issues with your macerator toilet in York? A blocked macerator toilet can be a frustrating and unpleasant problem to deal with. At Blocked Drains York, we specialize in providing professional drain unblocking and relining services to help you protect your property.

A macerator toilet, also known as a Saniflo toilet, is a type of toilet that uses a grinding system to break down waste into a fine slurry. This slurry is then pumped through a pipe to the main sewer system. Macerator toilets are commonly used in homes and businesses where a traditional toilet cannot be installed due to plumbing constraints.

A blocked macerator toilet can occur due to a variety of reasons, including:

• Misfiring microswitch: The microswitch is a sensor that detects when the toilet is flushed and triggers the pump to activate. If the microswitch is faulty, the pump may not activate, causing the toilet to become blocked.
• Blockages in the pipe: Hair, toilet paper, and other debris can accumulate in the pipe and cause a blockage.
• Pump failure: The pump is responsible for pumping the waste through the pipe. If the pump fails, the toilet will become blocked.
• Incorrect installation: If the macerator toilet is not installed correctly, it can lead to blockages and other issues.

If you are experiencing issues with your macerator toilet, there are a few steps you can take to try and clear the blockage:

1. Check the microswitch: Ensure that the microswitch is functioning correctly. If it is faulty, replace it with a new one.
2. Check the pipe: Use a drain snake or plumber's auger to check for blockages in the pipe.
3. Check the pump: Ensure that the pump is working correctly. If it is faulty, replace it with a new one.
4. Check the system: Check the entire system for any blockages or issues.
