Saniflo undersink macerator keeps trying to pump every 10 seconds or so.

if the pump is working correctly, it can either be, need more water to prime it, or something in the well, such as low water, plugged filter, etc....sometimes when you have a system that is intermittently used, it can take 20 or 30 minutes of continuous priming to get it to pull, enough water to maintain the prime.

David,

I am not directly familiar with this unit but have worked with others. The bubbling sound at the end of the run does sound odd. My thoughts go towards venting of this discharge pipe; is this properly vented?

The float switch will be the problem.
We do not replace the switch, just change the unit as labour to strip and replace switch makes it un economical.
