can this switch be used on turn in-sink drain garbage disposer on/off?

No problem using this switch for your garbage disposal. Nothing special needed

Sure.......just make sure that you use a GFCI outlet to connect your garbage disposal to.

Yes ..... this switch is purely mechanical ..... will turn circuit on or off depending how the circuit is wired.

I'm not sure, this switch didn't end up working I sent it back and went to local junk yard

No, the off/on switch is a part of your central vacuum system. You use the one on the end if your hose to apply power to the head via the two prong plug from the head's power cord.

Yes. When you order the switch, you choose the configuration. You want the constant on- constant off- constant on configuration. Worked great for me.

I wouldn't use it on a garbage disposer. The coil could easy get caught on or looped around one of the disposer blades.

Answer is no for dip switches, but works with older style Craftsman/Liftmaster/Chamberlain with a GREEN programming button

No, and I would not use this switch for something that will be turned on and off often. After about 5 months of moderate use front peiece broke off.

Not really but the larger sink is deeper and you have to be careful if you drain will still work. (depending on the height of the outlet on the disposal)

I would say yes, if it is a stable surface, it works by air pressure to a switch that the disposal plugs into.

As this operates as an on off switch, the only limitation would be the length of wiring you use. The length /distance should not affect performance of this switch.

It's been almost a year since I reviewed my "Batch" disposal...Since then I have to say that my Waste King Batch fed disposal is a "Pain in the Ass" to operate AND if I had it to do over I'd switch to another type. Simply switching an on/off wall switch is much more sanitary than putting your hand in the sink's standing filthy water to depress the "batch's" plunge On/Off switch.

No, I don't think so. The float switch needs a lot of upward travel to close the circuit. If you have a basement application but don't have a big enough hole for the entire pump, there are very small float switch circuit interrupters that you could use. A small hole in the ground would be required. Good luck.

There is no "ON/OFF" switch on this filter and the only way to control the water flow is by turning the switch on the faucet adapter On or Off. Yes, if someone forgets to switch the diverter OFF, then water will come out if the sink is turned on, however this is usually not an issue if the unit is near the sink with the spout pointed into the sink. Alternatively, there is another model - the Brondell Cypress water filter system which does have a separate ON/OFF switch. You can see that product here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EEDJSES thanks!

It does plug into a wall outlet that is powered by the off/on switch on the wall above or near the sink. The double outlet has a bar that connects the two outlet plugs. When this bar is removed (please use a professional electrician for this modification) it separately powers the two outlets making one outlet with constant power & the other powered by the switch. When you plug the garbage disposal into the switch powered outlet, it only operates when the switch is initiated to the "on" position. So, your disposal can be turned on & off by the switch. No need to plug & unplug to operate. It does plug into a wall outlet that is powered by the off/on switch on the wall above or near the sink.

The switch is GFCI and can be used to start a Garbage Disposal of other appliance requiring GFCI circuits

I purchased a cord kit and a air switch, you plug the air switch in to a outlet under the sink first and then plug the disposer plug in to the air switch . Then the air switch has a 1/4" plastic tube and a push button which you can put anywhere, I put my switch button in the style face frame of the sink cabinet just below the counter top, you would need a hole saw about 1 1/4 to 1 1/2" I think its been a while.
