Frequently Asked Questions
How long does garbage disposal installation take?
Most garbage disposal installations are completed in under two hours, including testing and cleanup. The timeline varies depending on the type of garbage disposal and kitchen space.
Do I need special plumbing or electrical wiring for a new garbage disposal?
In most cases, standard kitchen plumbing and a nearby electrical outlet are sufficient for installing a new garbage disposal. However, older homes may need minor plumbing adjustments or the addition of a dedicated electrical connection for safe operation.
Can a garbage disposal be installed in any kitchen sink?
Most kitchen sinks can accommodate a garbage disposal, especially if they have a standard drain opening and enough space underneath. However, very shallow sinks or sinks made from certain materials may require adjustments or reinforcement.
Can I install a garbage disposal if I have a septic system?
Yes, you can install a garbage disposal with a septic system, but it’s best to choose a septic-safe model designed to minimize strain on the system. Regular maintenance and mindful usage are also important to prevent issues.
What size garbage disposal is suitable for my household?
For most households, a 1/2 to 3/4 horsepower disposal is sufficient, while larger families or frequent cooks may benefit from a 1 HP model for better performance and durability.
