HUMANITARIAN ORGANIZATION SHOWERING LOVE UPDATES MODULAR OFFICE TO INCLUDE
HALF-BATHROOM FOR ITS EMPLOYEES

Case Studies 12/12/2022



SANIFLO’S SANIBEST PRO GRINDER PUMP OVERCOMES GRAVITY CHALLENGE IN STAFF
WASHROOM.

PROBLEM

DAVIE, FLORIDA — Showering Love is a non-profit organization that provides
mobile showers and other supportive services to Florida’s homeless community.
The organization does this in collaboration with partners and volunteers to
encourage a healthy lifestyle, foster community and inspire the desire for
self-sufficiency.

Since 2016, Saniflo has supported Showering Love’s efforts to help provide the
homeless community with access to personal hygiene. Saniflo’s previous product
donations have helped convert two buses to self-contained mobile shower
platforms equipped with private showers, restrooms, and a laundry facility. Read
more about the Showering Love buses and their impact on the Florida homeless
community here.

Critical to Showering Love’s success are its employees that serve behind the
scenes. The 8 full-time staffers currently work within a 20-foot x 10-foot
modular office space. According to Showering Love Founder Jeanne Albaugh, they
have an existing powder bathroom, but it is designed for a gravity-type drainage
system. “Unfortunately, we can’t tie the fixtures to the drain field due to
elevation constraints,” she explains.

The Showering Love employees needed a new, creative solution, so they could
continue working comfortably within the space.

SOLUTION

As an additional donation to the organization, Saniflo contributed a Sanibest
Pro unit to handle the effluent drainage and discharge of the office bathroom.
Given Showering Love’s success with Saniflo products, Jeanne Albaugh was
confident in installing the unit.

The renovation process has been seamless with the help of licensed plumber
Robbie Abruscati, owner of Paramount Plumbing (Orlando). Abruscati was familiar
with the product because he assisted in installing other Saniflo products on the
two mobile buses. There was no issue with handling the installation himself.

Ideal for public facilities, such as office or warehouse restrooms, the
heavy-duty Sanibest Pro grinder is engineered to quickly dispose of larger
objects that might well clog a conventional toilet. Water and organic waste
matter entering the chamber of the grinding unit are reduced to slurry by the
cutting blades rotating at 3,600 RPM.

The reduced fluids and solids are picked up at the bottom, and the pump impeller
mounted beneath the one-horsepower motor ejects the waste upward 25 feet and/or
horizontally 150 feet. Once the water level inside the container goes down, a
micro switch deactivates the system until the next flush. A normal operating
cycle for the Sanibest Pro takes about 10 to 12 seconds, depending upon the
discharge-pipe configuration.

The Sanibest Pro can not only discharge black-water from a toilet, but also
handle gray water drainage from two other fixtures. In Showering Love’s
application, the wastewater from the toilet and a lavatory drain into the
Sanibest Pro grinder. The unit then pumps the wastewater into a 1.5-inch
discharge pipe over 30 feet into a drain field.

“After we installed the pump, we tied the sink in to complete the bathroom,”
notes Abruscati. “They’ve been in there using it daily and haven’t had an
issue.”

RESULTS

Thanks to Saniflo’s simple above-floor plumbing solution, the Sanibest Pro unit
could withstand the elevation pressure and pump the effluent up and out to the
drain field.

“The system has been running great for us in the office,” says Albaugh. “We are
grateful for Saniflo’s support, generosity, and partnership.”
