Over time, many families develop the need to add an extra toilet in areas that were not originally planned during construction. Renovation often comes with concerns about floor breaking, long construction time, and disruption to living space. Mr. Huy’s case is a typical example.


Key Highlights

  • Context: The homeowner wanted to add a ground-floor toilet for greater convenience.

  • Challenge: Traditional installation would require floor breaking, increasing time and cost.

  • Solution: Install the wall-mounted Sanipack to collect and discharge wastewater without floor intervention.

  • Result: The toilet was completed quickly, neatly, and enhanced family comfort.


Problem

Mr. Huy wanted to install an additional toilet on the ground floor to make daily living more convenient for his family and guests. However, when the house was originally built, this area was not equipped with a drainage system for a WC.

This is also a common situation for many families today. As property prices continue to rise, optimizing existing living space becomes essential. However, renovation—especially adding a toilet—is often the most challenging upgrade due to drainage constraints.

With traditional construction methods, Mr. Huy would have needed to:

  • Break the floor to install drainage pipes
  • Affect the floor structure and aesthetics
  • Spend more time and incur additional costs

This led him to look for a more flexible solution that would not require major floor intervention.

 

Solution

After researching options, Mr. Huy chose the Sanitoilet solution with the Sanipack model.

Sanipack is compactly installed behind the toilet, allowing wastewater collection and discharge to the main drainage system without floor breaking. The unit integrates a cutting system, enabling the use of small-diameter discharge pipes and flexible pipe routing.

 

Advantages of Sanipack

  • Compact, concealed installation for improved aesthetics
  • No floor breaking required
  • Efficient wastewater collection and discharge
