A garbage disposal can be either installed from scratch or instead of an older disposal.
First of all you need to shop for the disposal that best matches your needs.
For example you should consider whether a noisy disposal would be a problem in your household, what kind of plumbing you have, or if you have kids or not.
Here are some guidelines:
- Choose a motor suitable for your household. There are models with lower or higher horsepower, for smaller households with small amounts of food waste, or larger households with more food waste.
- Consider the features that you need. Like a quieter disposal, or one made of stainless steel, or one that connects to the dishwasher. There is a vast variety of options and prices.
- If you have kids you might want to consider getting a batch feed disposal rather than a continuous feed one. The batch feed disposal is a bit more expensive but it is also safer for kids, as it requires the use of a stopper prior operation. While the continuous feed disposal starts running when you flip the switch on and will continue running a bit also after you switch it off. This can be dangerous if someone drops utensils down the drain or sticks a hand inside the disposal.
- If your plumbing connects to a septic tank you need a disposal made for septic tanks.
After shopping for the right disposal, you need to get hold of these tools you'll be needing for the installation:
- Electrical cord
- Disposer wrench
- Hacksaw
- Screwdriver
- Water pump pliers
- Plumber's putty
- Safety supplies: goggles, dust mask, gloves
When you are ready, the first thing to do before installing the new disposal is to turn off power and make sure nobody turns it back on while you work.
Now you can proceed removing the old disposal.
If the old disposal is attached to a dishwasher, loosen and detach the dishwasher hose with a screwdriver.
Then with the wrench unscrew the slip-nut connecting the disposal to the "P" trap waste line, putting a bucket under the trap to catch any waste water sitting at the bottom of the trap.
Remove the old disposal with the screwdriver and take apart the rest of the mounting assembly, including the ring on the sink sleeve, the sink sleeve, the flange, the fiber gasket and the old plumber's putty. Make sure to clean well the sink, the sleeve, the flange and sink opening from old putty and grime before installing the new disposal.
You are now ready to wire your disposal, whether it came with appliance wires attached or if you need to attach them yourself following carefully the manufacturer's instructions (after unscrewing the cover plate beneath the disposal and then screwing it back in).
The next step is installing the drain flange and mounting ring by rolling some plumber's putty between your hands to form a snake about half inch thick and 10 inches long and applying it to the underside of the drain flange. Insert the flange into the drain hole and press down to attach it. You can then snap on the backup ring, fiber gasket and mounting ring.
Use a knife to cut away the extra plumber's putty that will have squeezed out around the flange.
At this point you can place the disposal into the mounting ring making sure that the disposal's outlet is facing the drain pipe connection, and tighten it until it stays in place.
Connect the P-trap, using the hacksaw to cut the discharge pipe to size if too long, and attach it to the outlet of the disposal. Make sure to connect it properly by reading carefully the manufacturer's instructions. If your disposal connects to the dishwasher attach the discharge tube to the disposal as well.
You can now turn the power back on and run cold water into the sink, turning on the disposal to make sure it's working and to check if there are any leaks, and running some food through the disposal to make sure it grinds and disposes properly.
Make sure to mantain your garbage disposal in good shape by avoiding grinding certain items like hard shells from shrimps, crabs or other shellfish, unpopped popcorn kernels and hard bones, by avoiding fibrous or starchy foods like banana peels, celery, potato peels, corn cobs, artichokes, fruit pits and hard seeds like avocados or peaches, onion skins and egg shells, as they create clogs and membranes that will ruin the disposal, and by cutting down big pieces of food into smaller pieces.
It is also best to run cold water while the disposal is on, keeping both water and disposer running for about a minute after the sink is cleared. Cold water helps push food down, avoid overheating of the system and unlike hot water, doesn't melt fat, that would re-solidify as a blockage further down the drain.
You can either download your service providers app and then download all your info from the old phone onto the app and then re download the app on your new phone and transfer the information. Or sometimes you can just ask the employees at the store to do it for you.
According to Tracfone's website:
If you're going from a basic phone(i.e. flip phone or candy bar phone) to a smart phone, you can't transfer any minutes. The same applies if the situation is reversed.
You log onto the Tracfone website, Click on the "activate phone" button, and enter the information prompted of you.
make sure that the fuse is not blown, make sure there is no fork/spoon/etc stuck in the disposer. if it still doesn't work, you have to provide more information about what happens
You need to be more specific! Was your computer only connected to the internet threw your old phone? If so you need to set up the new phone and your computer to have the same matching connection information and passwords. It sounds like you may not know you need to configure your phone to allow a tether your computer to it and you also need to set your computer to the same information and configuration you set your new phone to.
The badger has two parts: 1) The sink strainer basket that attaches to sink with three screws visible from below. 2) The disposal which connects to sink basket with connector ring. There is a rubber washer between disposal and sink basket
If you drop disposal loose from the sink, you can get spoons and other stuff out. The disposal itself does not come apart for repairs.
I wrote tips for replacing disposal, which include information you might be able to use:
When I worked apartment maintenance, we replaced disposal with same brand disposal. That way we didn't have to change out sink basket or move pipes around under the sink. How to: Disconnect 2 nuts on p-trap and trap falls loose. Rotate steel connector disk that holds disposal to sink basket, and disposal comes off. Before installing new disposal. Attach electric wire to new disposal, and push in reset button. Attach dishwasher tube to new disposal. Knock out plug inside dishwasher opening. Push new disposal up into place, and attach to old sink basket. There is a rubber washer between disposal and sink basket, use new washer. Attachment ring catches at three points, all three have to connect. You can use bottle jack to lift disposal if you have problem. Re-assemble tubular pipe.
If this is your home, you want new sink basket that comes with new disposal because it looks shiny and new. Buy a tub of plumbers putty also. Remove old sink basket and clean sink opening. Put finger-size roll of plumbers putty around sink opening, and then push new strainer basket into plumbers putty. Tighten basket from below, wipe away excess putty around sink opening. Install new disposal as described above.
Tips for tubular pipes: When taking apart tubular pipes, start at p-trap and take apart as few pieces as needed to do job. On image below, loosen both upper and lower nuts, trap falls loose, and then work on disposal. Any tubular drain pipe that gets moved while working under sink needs to be disassembled, cleaned and re-assembled. Metal pipes have rubber washer >> always use new rubber washers. Plastic pipes have plastic washers > plastic washers can be cleaned and re-used. Plastic washers have flat side that goes toward nut, tapered side away from nut.
When reassembling tubular pipe, we use rectorseal on washers and joints. Slap a good amount on washer just before pushing washer in place and attaching nut. Rectorseal will ensure tubular drain pipes won't leak.

Press the [OK] button. A "Please Wait" message will be displayed while the machine reads the smart card, and then a "New Toner Remove Card" message will be displayed.
Remove the smart card from the reader and dispose of the card as normal office waste.
NOTE: If the smart card has been used with a previous installation of a Print Cartridge, a "Remove Card Already Used" message will be displayed. The smart card can only be used once. Make sure to use the card that came with the new cartridge.
