InSinkErator Septic Assist November 25, 2008
Phil I (Inverness, IL USA)
I'm really glad to finally have a disposal for this house that is on septic. No matter how diligent we were, some food particles always ended up in the sink and periodically caused drain line problems.
Installation was straight forward even though I did not have an existing disposal to replace. My two biggest challenges were getting an electric outlet under the sink and removing the old corroded sink flange.
For electric I mounted a GFCI outlet under the sink and added the optional power cord kit and sink top switch. This eliminated the need to add a wall switch since I did not have an existing disposal.
To remove the corroded flange (5 minutes max) I used a moto-tool with cutting wheel - I was working solo and didn't have anyone to help me muscle the old nut and flange apart - it just kept spinning in the sink.
As mentioned elsewhere the only other thing I needed to purchase was plumbers putty, and I bought a new hole saw for my drill to drill through the solid surface countertop for the sink top switch. Under the sink I was able to reuse all of the existing PVC plumbing where new parts weren't provided.
After a month of occasional use the Septic Assist bottle is still 7/8 full. I will still maintain the septic system with pumping every 2-3 years but I'm hoping this helps with the drain line issues inside the house.
It is much quieter than I expected and the sink top switch works great. I couldn't be more pleased with this product.

I have had this disposal for six months and it lives up to it advertisements. It is quiet and efficient. We have a small household and this disposal has preformed well. I recommend it to anyone wanting a small family disposal.
InSinkErator is still the best August 15, 2008

This is the 2nd disposal that I have installed. Our old house was on county sewer, so we did not need the added benefits of the Septic Assist. It was much more difficult to install than the new one.
The box includes nearly everything you need to install it. The only other things you need to have on hand is the plumber's putty to seal the flange in the sink, and some romex to attach the power. I did the job solo, but it would have been helpful to have another pair of hands to hold the drain in the sink while I cliped on the locking ring. Now that InSinkErator has the removable rubber seal that slips into the drain from the top, mounting the unit to the twist lock under the sink was a breeze. Since the power was already run to an outlet under the sink, I had this installed in under an hour.
I don't know how long the bottle of Septic Assist will last, but we have used it for a week without a noticable lowering of the contents of the bottle.
Running the unit is much quieter than the old ones. It's not silent, but the combination of vibration dampers and insulated chassis makes it quiet enough to talk over. It's more of a hum than a roar.
All in all, a relief to have a disposal again at the new house. Of course, only time will tell what impact it will have when we need to get the septic pumped. We plan to have it pumped every 2 years in order to keep the risk of overflow to a minimum.
