What is an InSinkErator?

An InSinkErator is an ingenious time-saving kitchen appliance, now widely used in many Australian kitchens. It was the first food waste disposal unit invented in 1927 that hit the consumer market in 1940. Whether you use the term InSinkErator, waste, or garbage disposal they refer to an appliance that does the same job. This convenient appliance is unobtrusive and compact and does not take up valuable bench space in your kitchen. The installation involves a connection to your kitchen sink, with the main unit being fitted in the cupboard underneath your sink, it will require the use of electricity to effectively shred food waste into small pieces, so it can pass through your plumbing system.

How does an InSinkErator food waste disposal system work?

InSinkErator units are designed to handle various types of food waste, including vegetable peels, fruit scraps, coffee grounds, and small bones. They offer a convenient and hygienic solution for disposing of food waste, eliminating the need for storing smelly trash in the kitchen and reducing the risk of attracting pests.

These disposal units consist of a grinding chamber, a motor, and sharp rotating blades or impellers that break down the food waste into smaller pieces. The ground waste is then flushed through the plumbing system and processed at a wastewater treatment plant.

Operating your garbage disposal is very easy, once you feed your food scraps such as vegetable and fruit peelings into the outlet (commonly known as a flange) in your sink, turn on your cold water tap, and the power switch and your food waste will be ground and washed away in a matter of seconds. The concealed impellers mounted on a spinning plate use centrifugal power to force the food waste particles against a grind ring. This action basically liquefies the waste and flushes it out through the plumbing system for wastewater treatment.

  • Slowly feed the food scraps into the waste disposal
  • Leave the cold water running for another 10 seconds after feeding in the food scraps.
  • Turn off the tap and the InSinkErator.

Benefits of an InSinkErator

Overall, an InSinkErator is a reliable and efficient garbage disposal unit that helps to minimize food waste, reduce environmental impact, and enhance the convenience and cleanliness of your kitchen. It's a quick and easy way to get rid of food waste and make your life a little easier. There is no need to take out the rubbish daily or have decomposing food scraps in your bin. You will also be doing your bit for the environment by reducing food waste in landfills, by using an InSinkErator your food waste will be processed at a wastewater treatment plant, where it can be converted into renewable energy or turned into nutrient-rich fertilizer.

 

Important Note: If you are considering installing an InSinkErator as a simple do-it-yourself task, it's important to note that in Australia, all plumbing and electrical work must be carried out by a licensed professional. By having your InSinkErator installed by a licensed plumber you can rest assured that potential problems such as water leaks, which can lead to significant damage and inconveniences, are avoided, and guarantees that your warranty remains valid in the event of any plumbing issues.
