When Nasser Benjamin needed a plumbing solution for his new early learning centre, Saniflo SFA was the obvious choice.
“The first time I used Saniflo was for my first childcare centre in 2012. There, we faced the same problem; we couldn’t go through the concrete slab. I spoke to my hardware guy, who recommended Saniflo, and the rest is history," says Nasser Benjamin, Owner.
In each instance, Nasser was faced with the issue of installing plumbing in an area located on a concrete slab. Traditional plumbing was ruled out as digging through the post-tension concrete slab to the tenancies below was not an option. This is where Saniflo SFA came in. To achieve the space that Nasser wanted to create for the early learning centre, Saniflo SFA recommended Sanispeed for the kitchenette, Sanicom for the main kitchen and Saniaccess 2 for the children’s toilets.
The Sanispeed was discreetly installed inside the cupboard under the sink. “The Sanispeed is our largest seller, our smallest commercial grey water pump and it’s used a lot for commercial office kitchens and small cafes," explains Greg Waters, Technical Manager, SFA Australia. "It handles higher temperatures than the domestic range, which is often needed in these situations.”
The Saniaccess 2 was installed behind the existing wall to minimise the visibility of the pump. “The beauty of the Saniaccess 2 macerator pump is the ease of access for serviceability. The access is via panels on top of the unit, which give you direct access to the blades and the electrical chamber," says Greg. "It’s ideal for childcare centres, commercial applications, or anywhere where blockages are a potential."
“And the Sanicom was chosen for the kitchen because of its ability to handle higher volumes of incoming waste, higher temperatures along with the greasy waste,” says Greg.
