Insinkerator Badger5 1/2 HP Garbage Disposal with Cord Details
The Badger 5 model provides offers a heavy duty motor and space-saving compact design that is economical to operate. Badger style food waste disposers are a reliable and functional choice when affordability is the prime concern. With an InSinkErator food waste disposer in your kitchen, chicken bones, fruit rinds, coffee grounds and more can go right in the sink, where they are virtually liquefied to safely flow into your sewage system or septic tank. This will create a cleaner food preparation area, and less bagged garbage cluttering your home. The Badger 5 features 1/2 HP heavy duty motor (Quiet Dura-Drive Induction Motor), rugged galvanized steel construction for durability, compact design, continuous feed, and an attractive waterbourne grey enamel finish.
When food waste is placed in a disposer, it lands on a turntable spinning at high speed. Centrifugal force and the impellers (or lugs) attached to the turntable push the food waste against a stationary shredder ring. The food is ground into small particles so that, when mixed with water, it can safely flow through your plumbing and into your wastewater system or septic tank.
How to Install a Households Disposer
Step 1: Install sink-mount assembly (new installation or different sink mounting)
Turn off the electrical supply at the circuit breaker or fuse box. Disconnect the sink drain and plumbing connections. Clean off the sink opening.

Step 2: Remove old disposer (replacements with similar sink mounting)
Turn off the electrical supply at the circuit breaker or fuse box. Disconnect the old disposer's plumbing connections and remove the disposer from its mounting. Disconnect the old disposer�s electrical connections.
