Best Answer

A macerator is a device used to breakdown waste from the toilet into a slurry form so that it can be pumped against gravity into a holding tank or other sewage system.

not widely used in UK

One of the main uses of the Macerator early game is doubling mining profit. Every ore block placed into the Macerator creates two ore dust. If macerating Redstone Ore, it outputs 6 redstone dust, instead of the usual 4-5. Each piece of dust can be smelted into a single ingot, yielding two ingots for each ore, if macerated.

Will bleach damage rubber seals in the sink basket strainer if left to stand for soaking items?

No it shouldn't, unless it's undiluted, but even then it shouldn't cause damage. The lining of my macerator is black rubber (like tyre rubber) and it is still fine after some 8 years of constant use and exposure to bleach.


Do you need a P trap in a garbage disposal?

That or a U bend. Its a balance between stopping the odors of the foul drain coming back up the disposal whilst maintaining a good macerator outflow. The disposal manufacturer instructions will normally name the preferred device. I chose to use a wide bottle trap. A bit more expensive but the maintenance is so easy.


Why dont your waste tank on boat pump out?

I assume you are referring to the holding tank for the head. The two most likely culprits that come to mind are a blockage in the line, or a defective macerator pump. The switch that operates the pump may also be at fault, as well as the wiring to the pump and or the switch itself. To start off, check to see that you can hear the pump operate when turned on. If so, then there most likely is a blockage somewhere. This should get you started in the right direction.
