Saniflo / Saniflo macerator / BR1
The unit starts by itself repeatedly
Stop using connected fixtures and describe the gaps between the unexpected starts. Say whether any toilet or tap was in use beforehand. Leave discharge and non-return connections assembled. Repeated operation needs assessment of the unit and existing arrangement; it does not establish which control or valve is responsible.
Compare this observation: water backs up at a connected fixture
Stop using all fixtures connected to the unit if waste backs up. Identify the first affected fixture and whether use elsewhere triggered the problem. Do not add drain chemicals or open contaminated fittings. Keep people clear and provide the model and visible arrangement when requesting assessment of the existing system.
The fitting is behind a furniture panel.
Describe the panel, plinth and visible surroundings. Leave the appliance fitted; photographs and an access description are enough to begin.
For the Bromley address
For a Bromley address, include the full BR1 postcode and entry arrangements. The district alone does not identify the property or confirm the visit.
Read the identity, not just the badge.
Quote the complete model and serial or service number from a safely visible label. Similar product names can hide different components. If the label is concealed, leave the appliance in place and tell us the model is unknown.

A useful question for the enquiry
Does “the unit starts by itself repeatedly” establish the failed part?
No. Describe that observation separately from “water backs up at a connected fixture”. Explain whether they began together or at different times, and include the fitting detail: the fitting is behind a furniture panel. The inspection can then consider the symptoms and safe access together.
