We had a built in Macerator on a previous MH and frankly I miss it. It had pretty heavy duty hose and was hard wired. The downside to a permanently installed macerator is that despite leaving the valve open, nothing happens unless you activate the pump. So I installed a remote control with a key fob so I could dump remotely. If I was in the camper and on a extended stay, I would remain hooked up and dump the tanks from inside the RV if I noticed they were full. The other advantage was that my septic clean out at the house was about 50' away from the driveway and it allowed me to clean and flush my tanks in the RV at home without driving through the grass.
