Sink waste disposer: an overview of popular models + connection instructions

Important Model Selection Options

When deciding whether to purchase a useful kitchen appliance, you should pay attention to the following characteristics of the model:

Dimensions, shape. The parameters of the chopper are important for its installation in a certain place in the kitchen. In some cases, the shape of the model may also have some influence.

When choosing a model, you should pay attention to its dimensions: it must match the compartment where it is planned to be placed, as well as the dimensions of the sink and drain

Power. The indicator is important for electric disposers, since it depends on it what types of garbage the utilizer will process, as well as the speed of its operation.

It is important to remember that especially powerful shredders (from 1300 W) consume a large amount of electricity. For a family of 4, it is enough that the device has a power of 550-1200 W

Rotational speed. This characteristic is important for electric shredders, in which it is incorporated into the design. For mechanical models, the rotation speed depends solely on the pressure of the water.

The volume of the chamber for crushing waste. The size of the capacity is largely determined by the needs of a particular family. For two people, a small tank is fine, while a large family needs larger options.

When buying a large tank, it is important to ensure that it fits under the sink. It is also important to consider that cells that are too small have a hard time handling a lot of waste, which can cause them to become clogged.

The use of stainless steel. Parts made of this durable and reliable material do not corrode.

Thanks to the steel elements, the devices can function in difficult conditions.The best option is a model made exclusively of stainless steel, which, however, affects the cost.

To reduce costs, some manufacturers use this material to finish the inner surface or individual parts of the dispenser.

When choosing such a model, it is important to ensure that elements made of other materials are coated with an anti-corrosion coating.

Not bad if the model will have such features as:

• automatic protection system against overloads, voltage surges in the network, ingress of foreign objects;
• the possibility of reverse rotation of the disk;
• the presence of several speeds for setting various operating modes;
• reinforcement in the drain shale, which guarantees reliable operation with no leakage;
• the ability to connect to the filter;
• the availability of spare parts (some manufacturers add them to the kit) and the availability of service centers where repairs can be made.

Although these factors usually affect the cost of the product, they can significantly improve the quality of work.

Possible additional features

Many manufacturers equip their products with a number of additional features. The most common include:

Silver Guard is a protective system that prevents accidental contact with spoons, forks and other metal objects, which allows you to extend the life of the dispenser.

Bio Shield is a technology that prevents the development of microorganisms, as well as suppresses possible unpleasant odors.

Torque Master - laser balancing of the moving elements of the electric dispenser mechanism. The system allows you to increase the number of revolutions and smoothness, which improves noise isolation during operation of the device and reduces its vibration.

Master Mounting System - a well-thought-out design of the device, thanks to which even a novice master will be able to install or dismantle the grinder.

The dispenser package may also include a variety of nozzles that are used to process various types of household waste.

A number of models of modern utilizers also include additional pushers that facilitate operation and improve work efficiency.

Instructions for connecting the grinder

Installing a disposer does not require specific knowledge or a special level of skill: almost everyone can do it. Washing of old models can cause some difficulty, since the utilizers are designed for modern sinks with a European drain with a diameter of 89-90 mm. In this case, use models with special nozzles or carefully expand the size of the drain hole.

Before starting installation, preliminary work should be carried out.

Preliminary step: size check

Before installing the heat exchanger, you should check the parameters of the installed equipment, since the disposer must fit freely into the intended space. It is advisable to check the following parameters:

• height and width of the installed device;
• distance from the bottom of the sink to the center line of the outlet;
• distance from the center of the drain hole to the end of the pipe;
• distance from the center line of the instrument to the center line of the instrument connection.

To organize the drain and prevent the accumulation of water in the working chamber of the utilizer, it is also necessary to monitor the level of the drain pipe extending from the outlet. It should drop towards the wall.

We provide power for the device

When using electric heat recovery units, it is important to run electrical wiring under the kitchen sink, creating an isolated current supply system. You can do it yourself, but it is better to invite professional electricians

It is important that the switch is located under the sink in a convenient location within reach. In this case, the parameters of the electrical network must correspond to the power of the grinder.

Installation of an electric dispenser

Having finished with the preliminary stage, you can proceed directly with the installation of the device.

Procedure:

In the countertop or on the sink, you need to make a hole for the pneumatic button, which should be treated with silicone

Then measure the distance and cut the air hose to the desired length.
Next, you need to turn off the water supply and dismantle the water seal, as well as disconnect the vertical and horizontal pipes (the latter may require cleaning).
Then carefully remove the sink outlet and disassemble the upper part of the grinder, separating the upper unit of the disposer and disassemble it. After cleaning the sink drain, put the rubber gasket on the flange and fit it tightly into place, ensuring a tight fit.
To mount the upper part of the unit, put a rubber gasket and a lock support ring on the flange

After that, put on it a fixing ring with bolts, as well as a snap ring (it should lock in place).
Tighten the bolts so that the lock fits snugly and evenly against the sink. Connect it to the dispenser tank, securing the connection well. Connect the nozzle to the waste shredder.
Connect the water trap first to the dispenser and then to the sewer drain.A smooth-walled siphon must be used for connection. Bottled and corrugated do not have sufficient rigidity, and are also prone to blockages, especially in the “knee” area.
Install a push-button switch in the drilled hole in the sink or countertop.
Connect the air hose to the nose of the air switch.

The last step is to restore the water supply.

If the appliance works, the installation is completed successfully, and the grinder can be used for household chores.

The right food waste disposer for the kitchen: how to choose equipment based on real needs

When studying different models, pay attention to the following features:

1. Disposers with batch loading are designed for intermittent operation. More convenient is a technique that performs its functions continuously when turned on.
2. If you plan to pre-clean dishes, choose a sink food waste disposer with a 400-500 watt drive.
3. When it is planned to grind bones, other solid waste, models from 500 to 1100 watts are purchased.
4. Sufficiently high performance is obtained at 1200 rpm and above.
5. The inlet must correspond to the parameters of the sink drain.
6. It is necessary to make sure that there is enough space in the cabinet furniture for installation.
7. Adjusting the rotation speed will allow you to choose the optimal mode of waste processing.
8. Motor protection against overheating and automatic shutdown in case of overloads will prevent breakdowns.
9. In difficult situations, the reverse function is useful.

How does a dispenser work?

The principle of operation of a household waste shredder for the kitchen can be compared with an electric blender, with the only difference being that it is much more powerful. The knives in its body rotate, grinding any food waste. For them, even chicken bones do not become an obstacle. As a result, a mushy mass is obtained, which, together with the water entering the sink drain, goes into the sewer drain. Due to the fact that the waste is ground very finely, they cannot clog the drain. As a result, the hostess gets rid of more than half of all garbage, besides, the remaining, non-food, does not spread unpleasant odors around.

Waste disposers can be both large and quite compact.

Modern dispensers operate almost silently, while providing maximum safety to the user. In addition, most of them have protective automatics that turn off the power to the device when a foreign solid object, such as a knife, spoon or fork, enters it. In this case, the kitchen grinder cannot be turned on until the item is removed.

How to choose a sink waste disposer?

In most cases, cooking is accompanied by the appearance of food waste that needs to be disposed of. Today, the trash can has been replaced by modern equipment that can grind and send waste along with domestic waste into the sewer system.

The recycling device will quickly and easily cope with fruits and vegetables, small fish and chicken bones, watermelon peels, paper napkins and towels, seeds, egg shells, bread crumbs, etc.With the advent of a chopper or, as it is also called, a sink dispenser in the kitchen, the hygiene of the room increases significantly, and unpleasant odors disappear. At the same time, there is no risk of clogging of sewer pipes, because the utilizer grinds waste to particles measuring 3 millimeters in diameter.

Sink Waste Disposer

where 1 is a plug, 2 is a drain funnel, 3 is a fixing nut for draining, 4 is a locking screw, 5 is a splash guard, 6 is a working tank, 7 is a knife, 8 is an outlet gasket, 9 is a pressure pad, 10 - drain pipe, 11 - return button, 12 - electric cord, 13 - outlet fitting, 14 engine housing, 15 - rotary cam cutter, 16 - disk, 17 - clamp, 18 - fiber gasket, 19 - rubber gasket.

Today you can buy both electrical and mechanical devices. Mechanical devices are equipped with cutting blades, with the help of which fibrous and hard waste is crushed, clogging of the sewage system is prevented.

Varieties of electronic waste shredders:

• with continuous loading. The principle of operation of the device is as follows - first the utilizer itself is turned on and only then waste is loaded into it;
• with portion loading of waste. First, a portion of food waste is placed in the working chamber, after which the equipment is turned on.

As far as the cost of using a kitchen recycler, it will cost you no more than running a 100W light bulb. At the same time, it is worth noting the indisputable advantage that the disposer can provide you with - cleaning the walls of sewer pipes from greasy deposits. And this suggests that it will be possible to save on cleaning the sewer system.

The principle of operation of the device

The dispenser is extremely easy to use. Consider the principle of operation of the device on the example of a utilizer with continuous loading. All that is required of you is to turn on cold water, press the device button, throw waste into the drain hole of the sink and, after the sound of the engine running “idle”, turn off the device. Next, you need to flush the sewer for 10 seconds and you can repeat the operation again.

It is not recommended to load large bones, onion husks, corn cobs, polyethylene products, threads into the garbage chopper located in the sink.

If prohibited waste enters the appliance, a safety device will operate to turn it off. In this case, only the master will be able to return the device to working condition.

Installing the grinder in the sink - the main steps

• We turn off the water and disconnect the sewer pipes from the sink.
• We place a rubber gasket on the flange.
• We connect the chopper mount to the sink and then connect the device itself.
• We connect one end of the drain pipe to the dispenser, the other to the sewer pipe. We connect the electrical cord to the outlet (the outlet must be grounded). Some dispenser manufacturers recommend using a separate line.
• We test the equipment. We turn on the cold water and press the button, put the waste in the sink and make sure that the device is working correctly.

There are models of waste disposal for the sink, the design of which does not provide a separate switch. They are designed for batch loading. After the tank is filled with waste, the neck cap is turned. This cover is inserted into the drain hole of the sink and acts as a switch.

Principle of operation, device, selection criteria

In the food waste grinder for the sink, crushing takes place, then grinding the organic matter to a paste-like state (fraction 5 - 3 mm).

Type of ground food waste

To move the resulting mass through the sewer, it is necessary to turn on the water from the tap, maintaining a small stream until the waste is completely ground.

The dispenser will do its job well with the water turned on.

Mechanical (hydraulic) grinder

Mechanical dispensers start working from the pressure of water every time the tap is turned on. Instead of rubbing the waste against the walls of the chamber with fists, cutting of bones takes place here, cleaning with several knives. The device is non-volatile, however, it will not turn on at a low pressure of less than 2.5 atmospheres. But the hydraulic equipment works almost silently.

hydraulic shredder

A food waste hydrochopper is more expensive than its electric counterparts. This is due to a more complex device, expensive components. The operation of these devices in families with small children is not recommended due to the increased risk of injury. Knives are blocked only when metal objects or glass penetrate into the chamber. If the pressure in the water supply is not stable, the built-in appliances will be useless.

Household Hydraulic Food Waste Disposer

Electric dispenser

The food waste electric disposer is cheaper (household models only), but you will need a waterproof outlet to connect. Most manufacturers produce only volatile household appliances, so the range is much wider.

Varieties of electric dispensers

When choosing, they are mainly guided by the drive power.The volume of the crushing chamber is not so important - peak loads traditionally fall on anniversaries, weddings, the pickle season. In principle, a 0.5 kW engine is enough for a small family. Moreover, an increase in loads cannot cause burnt windings - thermal protection will work, the drive will turn off.

Electrical dispenser piping

The maintainability of electric, hydraulic models is approximately the same. However, the operating budget of the latest options is much lower - rewinding the engine is more expensive than replacing knives, and no electricity is consumed. Water as a drive is the cheapest energy carrier.

Chopper repair

Finally, for suburban dwellings, the grinder is not relevant in principle. The family either keeps livestock/poultry or uses the organics in the compost heaps.

Connection Features

Before purchasing a disposer, it is important to choose the right grinder based on the amount of work, the availability of additional equipment (dishwasher), and the state of the sewer. The following dimensions must also be taken into account.

• Chopper width and height. The most powerful models are often large and may not fit under standard sinks.

• Sink drain diameter (optimally 90 mm). If the diameter is smaller, then you need to flare the drain. First, a hole of a larger diameter is cut out with a special knife, then the edges are rolled under the dispenser flange.

• The existing configuration of sewer pipes. The system can be assembled compactly, excluding the possibility of reassembly, replacement of elements. In this case, new pipes should be purchased.

It is better to have a socket for connection at some distance from the sink. This will eliminate the possibility of moisture ingress and, as a result, a short circuit. For draining, smooth pipes should be chosen. Remains of ground waste do not accumulate on their walls. For dispensers with a pneumatic button, you must first select the place for its removal.

How to install the chopper

When installing the shredder, follow these steps:

First you need to pay attention to some installation details: what should be purchased additionally to connect the dispenser. Rigid smooth-walled vent pipes will be required, since when waste is removed, their residues can accumulate on the surface of ordinary corrugated plastic siphon pipes

As a result, the removal of waste is difficult, as they gradually narrow the hole in the pipe. Because of this, an unpleasant odor may appear, from which even the presence of a siphon does not save.
You may also need a circuit breaker or socket located under the sink, with additional protection against moisture. Otherwise, the risk of damaging the device on the first day of operation increases.
In rare cases, additional measures can be taken, such as increasing the drain in the sink if it is made of stainless steel. As for enamelled sinks and products made of artificial stone, it is impossible to change their design for a disposer.

1. After finishing the preparatory work, place a rubber gasket on the outside of the sink, it will help to avoid leaks. A flange is installed on top of it, its narrow part is placed in the drain. Under the sink, a noise-splash insulator made of rubber or cardboard is attached to it.The flange is attached to the sink with a mounting bracket. To continue working, you need to remove the protective metal ring, and then fix the lock.
2. After finishing the flange mounting and installing the lock, you can proceed to connecting the chopper. At this stage, additional tools may be needed, for example, a hexagon, with which the device is hung on a lock.
3. Upon completion of connecting the device to the sink, it is connected to the sewer. You will need a siphon with pipes and a mount from the kit (plastic or rubber). If the kitchen has a dishwasher, it should be connected to a dispenser. It may have a special hole with a plug. When connected, it will need to be removed with a screwdriver.
4. After the assembly of the siphon is completed, a trap (if any) and a plug are installed in the hole in the sink. At the final stage, the device is connected to the mains, water is drawn into the sink, the plug is removed and the presence of leaks is checked. If they are not, then the connection is made correctly. After that, you can start testing the operability of the dispenser.

Do not forget that the chopper is an electrical appliance. It requires power. At the same time, it must match the voltage with the technical characteristics of the device, have grounding and protection against moisture. If not, contact a professional electrician to help arrange it.

Highlights

Types of dispensers

There are two types of dispensers, which we will briefly discuss below.

1. Mechanical. A common type of design that starts its work due to the flow of water. Due to the too far location of the knives, it is considered safe for humans.Does not require electricity.
2. Electric. A less common option that requires electricity to operate. There are no knives in the design, there are crushing elements. Noisy, less effective than mechanical.

How does a food waste disposer work?

Let's move on to the characteristics of food waste disposers, which are considered when choosing them.

Characteristics

1. Volume. Everything here is simple: the larger the value, the larger the dispenser chamber. Minimum - 700 ml, maximum - one and a half liters.
2. Download type. Waste can be loaded into the disposer continuously or in batches. The first option requires only turning on the device, and then give it waste. The second option is somewhat more difficult. First you need to load the disposer with residues, then grind them, then turn off the device and put the next batch of waste on crushing.
3. Power. This indicator directly affects two parameters - the speed of grinding waste, as well as energy consumption. Devices with a power of up to 300 W are classified as home, more powerful (up to 800 W) are classified as professional. Indirectly, power also affects the price of the device.
4. Rotational speed. This parameter is revealed differently depending on the type of grinder. If we consider the mechanical version, then its speed depends on the flow of water: the stronger it is, the faster it rotates. The electric variant has a minimum show of 1400 rpm, but it can go up.
5. Material. The best option would be stainless steel.
6. Noise level. The maximum noise level is comparable to grinding coffee in a coffee grinder.
7. Dimensions and weight. In terms of dimensions, the dispenser must fit in the place under the sink, and the weight must be at least 7 kg.
8. The presence of a reverse. With reverse, the device will last longer.

Consideration of characteristics helps to choose the best option

What is usually included with the purchase of a dispenser:

• the body itself;
• fixing lock;
• pneumatic hose and pneumatic button;
• branch with an exhaust pipe;
• rubber seals;
• hex service wrench.

The most necessary accessory for the user of the grinder is the pneumatic button. Installed on the countertop, it is convenient to turn on the dispenser.

The grinder is quite extensive.

Look at the dimensions!

Before you start choosing a grinder, you need to find out exactly what size device is right for you. It will need to be placed in a limited space under the sink, so be sure to look under the kitchen sink and measure the amount of free space available there. It is possible that the grinder simply does not fit. Also measure the distance in height from the drain hole to the exit of the sewer pipe from the wall. This value must be at least 20 cm, otherwise the installation of the grinder will not be possible.

The shredder must be installed in such a way that the device can be easily disassembled and cleaned if necessary.

There are also requirements for the size of the sink. Rather, to the diameter of the drain hole, which should be equal to 90 mm. If the hole is a couple of millimeters smaller, then the grinder installers can expand it, but, say, an outdated cast-iron enameled sink with a drain hole diameter of 50 mm will no longer be able to put a grinder.

Shredders allow you to process a large amount of waste. Indeed, in developed countries, up to 95–115 kg of food waste per person per year.

4 Best Sink Food Waste Disposers

Decided to get rid of nasty smells from the trash can and put a disposer in the kitchen? Then get acquainted: the best food waste disposers for mounting under the sink. In this review, we will look at the most powerful and efficient models of household utilizers that grind both vegetable peelings and small bones with equal ease.

In Sink Erator Evolution 250 - large dispenser with a capacious chamber

This utilizer easily deals not only with soft cleanings, but also with fish bones, nut shells, fruit seeds.

The grinder has a chamber size increased to 23 cm (volume 1.18 l) and runs at a good speed of 1425 rpm. The model comes with a button and two trims finished in chrome and stainless steel - you can choose the option that best suits the design of the kitchen.

• Efficient three-stage grinding turns any waste into a fine slurry.
• Quiet, but powerful induction motor, plus good sound insulation.
• All major components are made of stainless steel.
• When hard waste enters the neck, the machine automatically increases the torque.
• Reverse function and overload protection in case something gets stuck inside.
• Excellent equipment: there is a protective curtain, and a grate for the drain hole, as well as all the necessary mounting hardware and seals.
• Can be installed on sinks made of stone and composite thanks to vibration damping pads.
• Extension of the warranty period up to 8 years.

• Large weight - almost 12 kg.
• Very expensive (29-30 thousand rubles).
• The pneumatic button here is rather weak and may soon require repair or replacement.

Status Premium 400 - quiet and reliable heat exchanger

Another rather big disposer with a width of 22.5 cm has a capacious chamber of 1.2 liters. The utilizer develops a good rotation speed of 1480 rpm and easily copes even with small bones.

Despite these characteristics, it runs even quieter than the previous model thanks to the brushless motor. Such a solution simultaneously increases the resource of the motor and provides the chopper with a long service life.

• Stainless steel chamber.
• Three-stage grinding.
• Automatic reduction of speed in the absence of waste and complete shutdown after 8 minutes of "idle" work.
• The working bodies change the direction of rotation at each start - their wear occurs more evenly and without disturbing the balance.
• Full set of engine protections (against overload, jamming and overheating).
• Soundproofing in the grinding chamber, which made it possible to reduce the overall noise of the operating disposer to a comfortable 45 dB.
• 5 years warranty.

A rather large cost - 25 thousand rubles.

Zorg ZR-75D - inexpensive shredder with good power

The powerful 750-watt disposer with a high speed of 2600 rpm and noise reduction is able to quickly grind any leftover dinner (unless you send large bones down the drain).

The model from the Czech manufacturer turned out to be compact, but roomy - the useful volume of the crushing chamber is 1.07 liters with a relatively small width of 19 mm.

• Sufficient space for a family of 3-4 people.
• Reliable and durable stainless steel components.
• Built-in motor overload protection.
• Possibility of inclusion from the DU panel.

• Low price compared to other models - 11-13 thousand rubles.

• Double drain, and for the second outlet there is not even a plug in the kit, which can seriously complicate installation.
• The declared noise reduction is not a full-fledged sound insulation, and a working dispenser will still be audible (50-60 dB).
• Composite tank.

Bone Crusher 910 Delux - Antimicrobial Speed ​​Disposer

This model has the highest rotation speed - 2700 rpm, instantly cracking down on a large amount of waste.

The main mechanisms here are made of stainless steel, but the crushing chamber is made of more fragile polycarbonate, which may not have the best effect on the service life of the utilizer.

• The patented Bio Shield technology prevents bacteria from multiplying inside the dispenser.
• Minimum noise and vibration during operation due to ultra-precise balancing mechanisms.
• The magnetic ring keeps the cutlery from falling into the chopper.
• Weight slightly less than 7 kg.
• The kit comes with a universal pusher that can be used both as a plate scraper and as a plug for the dispenser hole.
• Five-year manufacturer's warranty.

• The price is 26 thousand.
• The presence of not too reliable polymer nodes.

The principle of operation of the trash shredder

The mechanism of action of the electric utilizer is quite simple. The unit is a small container equipped with a built-in electric motor. A special compartment is provided inside the tank, where the grinding of the incoming waste takes place. In the upper part of the device there is a metal disk, which, depending on the design solution, can rotate at a speed of 1500-3000 rpm.

The durable element is equipped with special devices - freely rotating cams designed for the initial crushing of solid waste. Some modern models have a special advanced feature - a reverse crushing jaw system. They are able to spin alternately in different directions, which ensures even more efficient grinding of food debris.

Under the influence of centrifugal force caused by the rotation of the disc, the waste is thrown to the walls of the compartment, where there are self-sharpening graters that grind large enough pieces into fine crumbs.

Ultimately, the garbage is processed to particles no larger than 3-4 millimeters in size, which are easily washed off with water into the sewer. The food waste processed by the disposer does not cause clogging of sewer systems, but, on the contrary, cleans the pipes.

Why you should buy a chopper, and why you might not like it

First, we would like to talk about the main reasons why you should buy a dispenser.

1. Grinding waste in this device with their further discharge into the sewer system significantly speeds up dishwashing. And activation has never been so easy - you just need to press the pneumatic button or even let the water flow.
2. By grinding food leftovers, you reduce the amount of organic debris, which means you protect nature. In addition, you will get rid of the unpleasant odor.
3. Grinding garbage eliminates the appearance of blockages in the pipe, leading to the failure of the sewer.
4. As your grinder grinds waste, you deprive sewer animals of food and worsen their living conditions.
5. Modern dispensers are so safe that even a child cannot be hurt by them.
6. Do you have a private sewerage system with a septic tank? Then your grinder, by grinding the waste, helps the septic tank in their easier processing.

The advantages of the dispenser are many.

Now we will pay attention to what can tear away from the purchase of a disposer

1. An increase in water consumption (as a rule, an increase of three liters per day). As we already remember, water is the basis of the operation of both types of the unit.
2. Growth in energy consumption. This applies more to the electric version of the dispenser. As a rule, the maximum value is 0.8 kWh.
3. Since the disposer will grind food waste, it is necessary to install not corrugated, but smooth pipes. If this is not done, the remnants of food will get stuck in the corrugation.
4. Not all products can be immediately sent for grinding. Slippery, hard - they can not be ground in a grinder.
5. The device is too sensitive. It needs proper care if you want it to serve you for a long time and faithfully.

There are also many disadvantages to this device.
