Just in case you havn't looked at my pics yet, you may want to, to get some
ideas to do it differently as I'm not completely happy with my setup. It's
functional and easy to use, but leaves a little too much in the tank.
The difficulty is to get a low point so as to empty the holding tank
completely. I'm currently on the trail of an adapter to accomodate that, but
still waiting for a call-back.
I got the macerator with th 3" adapter, i.e. it just slips into the pipe.
Perhaps that's were I made my mistake.
