Got a basement shower room to do.

Its ta going to need a macerator. The customer wants a low level tray, and to do this they have left out a channel 6 inch below the back of the toilet. The macerator will go in that and the shower waste can run to it.
Can this be done, so that the macerator is lower than the toilet? If so which one do I need.

Shouldn`t really be done that way but can be done and doubt any manufacture will honour the warranty as for which one the killer point is the vertical lift limit of the chosen macerator and the customers depth of pocket.

Was looking at a side entry macerator for the soil connection, this would be lower than the wc. The discharge is only going 2m vertical and about 1m horizontal, before it meets the stack.
 
In a unit 2ft to the right of the wc.

On behalf of the guy that will follow you one day can I ask that you support the pipe from pan to pump so that it wont fall off the pan when the pump is removed one day and can you allow another +50% height above the pump to allow the pump/motor to be withdrawn from the tank.

Will do. Thanks for the advice .
