Hi,
A visitor used the saniflow loo and turned of the pump by mistake. I guess they thought it was a light switch. I imagine they flushed and while no water came over the bowl the neighbour downstairs told me there was water flooding through the landing ceiling. I rushed back to my flat, saw the pump had been switched off and I turned it back on again. The flooding then slowly ceased but not after doing considerable damage.
My question is: Should a saniflow flood if the power is switched off or should their be an outlet / overflow like on an ordinary toilet.
