Macerator vs Sewer Solution
Just thinking after reading the macerator post in this section. I too considered a macerator system, as we had a odd short connection to the usual slinky style hose that caused a sharp bend, and wouldn't allow for a complete sloped drain to the sewer as we can't fit the hose cradle under the MH. I was tired of having to raise the slinky hose to empty it as there was always a flat spot.
So we ended up getting the Sewer Solution as compared to a macerator. I did research the two. I just didnt want a hard wired system to the MH to dump and had worries about the blades plugging up. As many have indicated here, that's a possibility, along with other mechanical issues.
If your familiar with the Sewer Solution it just works off water pressure. Nothing electrical or moving parts to wear out. We used it last year for the season and it worked fine. It does drain slow , but will pump uphill and wash the hose clean and back flush if needed.
I had one time where it almost clogged from a wad of toilet paper. But after reversing the water back and forth it dislodged it. You can see what is going down the chute, it looks like it'll never work, but it has for us.
Are there others with success with the Sewer Solution or failures I haven't had yet? Of course this systems downfall is you need a water connection.
