Hi guys,

I'm building a man cave at the end of the garden, it will have a toilet and shower in and the waste needs to be pumped up the garden to the main drain in a straight line.
The fall from the drain to the cave is about 1m 1.5m. and its about 30-40 metres.

does anyone have any suggestions on the best way to pump the waste up hill ?

Thanks, Lee
 
Ive always wondered does this need planning permisson and will it affect council tax etc?
 
No idea. But would be worth checking. I presume somebody would have to be notified?
 
You need a waste pump. Saniflo are the best of a bad bunch. One of the trusted advisors on here (member name RPM) is an expert on these pumps and will be the best person to advise you on them. Might be worth dropping him a message.
