The Saniplus works on a float switch which is a rubber membrane in the pressure chamber (where electrical components are) water pressure pushes up in the membrane and the unit kicks on and pumps the waste out. Once the pressure releases, the membrane goes back down and shuts off. If the membrane is warped or solids are build up at the bottom, it will not allow it to kick on and off as it should. You might want to inspect that membrane and have it cleaned or replaced.

SOURCE: Our Saniflo - Saniplus works fine and efficiently

Sounds like a restriction in the outlet pipe, the 2 galls from a flush are OK but the bath or shower is more, especiallly if you have flushed before you shower, try drain unblocking chemicals or flushing the outlet pipe with mains water from a hose

The bath water won't pump out. Seems like there's too much water left in the Saniplus itself to allow the bath inlet valve to open. Can this be adjusted? The toilet and wash basin are working OK.

This is a bit of a puzzle, if theres water in the Suniplus then the float valve will operate and the water will pumped out as it does for the toilet and wash basin.
I can only think that the bath discharge none return valve is stuck and needs removing and cleaning.

Hope that solves the problem.

When we flush machine runs and waste goes properly but waterlevel goes high . during flush time the toiletbowl filled with water

Sounds like your external pipe may have a blockage tap the pipe to see if your hear a thud if it sounds clear check the toilet outflow pipe the same.. You may need to have your external pipes rodded.

The water level is too high in my tank and goes over the over flow and in styrofoam on the inside of the tank.

Adjust the float attached to the fill valve. Some simply slide up and down on a racheted adjustment bar. Others screw up and down for adjustment. Flush after each adjustment until the proper fill level is acheived. Make sure there is still a sufficient amount of water at a given level to flush the toilet properly.

We had that problem but the unit was built in and I could not get at it, the outlet pipe sounds like it is blocked, I cleared mine by connecting a pipe from the cold tap to the outlet pipe and flushing.

Saniplus motor (flushing noise) keeps repeating

I believe you have a problem with a leak. The pump is filling back up. See is the water is leaking out somewhere. Hopefully, you don't have a leak under the house. The water coming into the pump is going somewhere when it comes on.
