Upward-flushing toilets?
My basement, which I plan to finish off into several rooms has no
sewer connect. The upstairs sewer line comes down into the basement, runs along a side wall and then out to the street about half-way up the basement wall. I'd like to put a toilet and vanity in the finished basement. Is there such a thing as an upward-flushing toilet? I suspect it would have to sit atop a raised area with some kind of pump underneath. Never heard of one though. Thanks. |

under the tank, it also takes sink water in and pumps it out too. works great for him. sorry dont have a name and just remember it was pricey and of course you need a electrical outlet |

Years ago magazines such as Mechanics Illustrated and Popular Mechanics had
adds for up flushing toilets in every issue. Haven't seen them lately but a Google search might turn them up. As I understand it, they had a built in waste pump. Walt Conner Is there such a thing as an upward-flushing toilet? I |

I had one installed in my basement last year. Just warn any females not
to flush sanitary napkins- the fibers can tangle in the blades, I was warned. |
