Free Standing Lifting Stations (Sanicubic & Sanicom)

Whether for low gravity areas or basement installations, Sanicubic ensures optimal operation thanks to its powerful pump and its ability to handle wastewater and charged particles. If you are looking for a practical and economical solution for your sanitary installations, discover how Sanicubic can meet your needs.

What is a Sanicubic?

• Sanicubic is a free standing lifting station with autonomous system designed to elevate wastewater and charged water when they cannot flow naturally to the sewage network. It is equipped with one or more lifting pumps that suction the wastewater and push it up to the sewage system. This type of station is particularly useful for basements, garages, or homes located in low-slope areas, where gravity drainage is insufficient.

• Sanicubic can handle several types of liquids, including clear water, wastewater, and water charged with solid particles. It consists of a tank that temporarily stores the water, one or more pumps, and a control device that automatically activates the pump when the water level reaches a defined threshold.

   

Advantages of a Sanicubic

Choosing a free standing lifting station (Sanicubic) offers numerous advantages for managing your wastewater. It easily integrates into any installation and is available in various types, allowing for the selection of a model that meets your specific needs.

1. Ease of Installation: Unlike buried stations, Sanicubic can be directly installed in your bathroom, basement, or technical room. This greatly simplifies the setup while reducing associated costs.
2. Adaptability: Sanicubic is a versatile solution capable of handling different types of water, whether from toilets, kitchens, or bathrooms. It can efficiently lift wastewater, clear water, or charged water.
3. Pump Performance: The lifting pumps are designed for autonomous and continuous operation, ensuring quick evacuation of water even during heavy use. These systems provide high flow rates, ensuring smooth and unobstructed drainage.
4. Affordable Price: While Sanicubic is available at competitive prices, they remain extremely reliable. Additionally, their ease of installation can lead to savings by avoiding heavy and costly renovations.

5. Fast and Complete Delivery: Most manufacturers offer quick delivery of the lifting station, often accompanied by all necessary accessories for installation and proper operation, including pipes, check valves, and pump control devices.

    

How Does a Sanicubic Work?

• The operation of a Sanicubic is based on the use of one or more pumps submerged in a tank. When wastewater accumulates in this tank, a float or electronic sensor detects the water level. Once a predefined threshold is reached, the pump automatically activates to evacuate the water to the sewage network or a higher discharge point.
• Most Sanicubic are designed to operate continuously, requiring minimal maintenance. Depending on the type of station you choose, it can handle more or less charged wastewater, which influences the choice of pump.
• Some free standing lifting stations are equipped with a safety system to prevent overflow in case of failure. Moreover, modern systems are generally quiet, ensuring optimal comfort during use.

How to Choose Your Sanicubic?

The choice of the lifting station depends on several technical criteria that you should consider to ensure that your equipment meets your needs perfectly.

1. Identify the Issue: Before selecting a pumping station model, you need to clearly identify your requirement. Generally, there are two scenarios:

• You need to evacuate water from one or more rooms located below your main discharge (e.g., a basement laundry room) or outside your building (e.g., summer kitchen, pool house). A free standing lifting station is the best option.
• Your building is below or at a considerable distance from your municipality's discharge network. You would then need to install a buried lifting station.

2. Type of Station and Water to Be Elevated: There are different models of lifting stations designed to handle wastewater or charged water containing solid particles. If you need to lift water from toilets or a washing machine, ensure that the station you choose is suitable for this type of use.
3. Pump Power: The power of the pump determines the station's ability to lift water over a certain height and distance. If you have a basement or facilities far from the discharge point, it is advisable to choose a station with a powerful pump that offers sufficient flow.
4. Volume Capacity of the Lifting Station: Volume capacity refers to the tank size of the lifting station. It is important to size it based on your needs to avoid having the pump activate more than fifteen times per hour. In a five-room home, it is common to choose a 100-liter tank. Each additional room adds a supplementary volume of 25 liters. Note that the system's capacity is proportional to the power of the lifting pump.
5. Price and Value for Money: The price of a lifting station varies based on pump power, tank volume, and the types of water it can handle. It is advisable to compare available options based on your budget while considering the performance offered.
6. Ease of Maintenance: Another criterion to consider is the ease of maintenance of the station. Opt for a station equipped with an easy drainage system and removable filters for quicker and more efficient upkeep.

Do not hesitate to request multiple quotes before making your choice. If you urgently need a lifting station, ensure to check the stock availability and delivery time before deciding, as stock can vary from product to product, which can affect your project's timelines.
