I live in a rented house with a Saniflo system in the upstairs bathroom. Currently we have been having some problems with the upstairs toilet running all the time and reflushing itself, so we've turned off the water to it. However, the Saniflo pump is still turning on, every 9 minutes. Does anyone know how I can stop this? The toilet tank has drained itself and is sitting empty, there is water in the toilet bowl, so I don't know what the pump is pumping or why it is running. I've checked and none of the taps in that bathroom are running or dripping.
The second problem we have (because Saniflos are an endless source of problems) is that, when we are able to use that bathroom and flush the toilet, 'water' wells up in the shower base. We can't use the shower because it leaks badly through the floor into the lounge below. The landlord is not really interested because we have a second bathroom downstairs. There is no evidence of sewage leaking anywhere. Anyone have any suggestions about this? I know the obvious answer is to get the Saniflo engineer back in, but he's expensive and I feel the landlord should be fixing it.
