Macerator:
We needed to figure a way to dump our sewage tanks at home, so we purchased a 12 volt Macerator to chew up solids, and pump it up hill to our house. The clear plastic pipe with it's own dump valve is a flush king, which we already had.
The red hose on the left is the hose that goes to the sewer, or in our case the septic tank. The green hose on the right is to back flush the tanks and rinse them out.

We decided since our septic tank is on the other side of the house from where we park our RV to pipe it into the sewer pipes under the house. It is pumped 175ft thru a 3/4 inch hose. I found various pvc pipe fittings to do the step up to the larger size pipe under the house. Works great!!
