Pity we don't have basements in the UK for boiler, washer, etc.

Well yes and no. My sisters previous designer built German house did.
Which was FINE, until the sewage pump the council had installed,
failed, and everyone's basement ended up 3 foot deep in sewage.

Saniflo is one thing, but when you have a German Municipal saniflo,
boy, its a bit more serious.

Yes, seen the same problem in a US basement. Took weeks to refurbish.

Surely one way valves and alarms and redundant pumps could avoid such a thing. Very poor design.
