Question Sewage Pump for basement apartment???

Hi I am new to this group but not to DIY. I would like to make an apartment out of a basement area--the sewer goes out of the house at about 4 ft above the basement floor--a sewage pump is my only option? What is the best choices--I want a full bath and kitchen. I have checked out saniflow--has anyone used this before and the feed back?

saniflow

saniflow is not something that I'm familiar with. Your pictures are great, but they don't seem to pertain to the plumbing prob. Ball park idea is that you need a sewage ejector installed in the floor that can handle the flow of the fixtures that you plan to install. Without more info. thats the best that I can do. Sorry.

No I do not have an album of this basement I want to make an apartment ---it is the basement to my WOW before and after house we redid--it has it's own entrance---the Saniflow system, here is the web site http://www.saniflo.com/products.asp
seems to be a big thing in France but but not sure if all is true lol---I do have a local distributer and have checked them out in person and the cost will be @800 --but I hate to put out that much to have to replace it witha more standard system and with renters you never know what they might put in it lol-for the thing to grind it all including Toilet paper and go out a 3/4 inch pipe ---seams unreal lol I know I have new plumbing and a 6 inch pipe and we have to plunger the toilet once in a while lol---I have over 15 kids in my house too lol --I have tried a few other DIY forums to see if anyone uses them or have installed them and the feed back-
