No, food waste disposers do not have blades. They quickly and quietly grind food waste using swivel lugs and MultiGrind Technology™.
Modern disposers grind food waste into very fine particles. Also, food waste is 70-80% water, so easily travels through drains.
Although operating a food waste disposer does involve running water and using electricity, the environmental impact is minimal. Disposers use only about 1% of a household's total water consumption (about one flush of the toilet per day) and cost approximately $2 per year in electricity to operate.
InSinkErator Sound Limiter insulation and Anti-Vibration Mount Technology mean the Evolution™ models can operate with minimal noise versus standard disposers. We also recommend installing a quality sink, which can eliminate vibration and noise.
A food waste disposer can be installed with both a single or double bowl sink. Check sink and food waste disposer dimensions for details.
A food waste disposer can handle a wide range of food waste including, fruits, veggies, chicken bones, fish bones. Tea bags (without strings or staples), egg shells, avocado skins/stones and celery.
You’ll find an InSinkErator food waste disposer in over 6 million American households with a septic tank.
InSinkErator Food waste disposers have always been safe for properly sized septic systems. For example, if your system is sized for a dishwasher or clothes washer, it can handle a disposer. A disposer uses only about as much water per day as one flush of a toilet.
