Can I use this on a disposer that is sharing a drain with a dishwasher? i.e., will it damage the dishwasher connection?

I sure hope not. Seems to me that sharing a drain with a dishwasher is fairly standard and certainly what mine does.

Yes can be used with disposer sharing a drain with dishwasher, but NOT with dishwasher running. Best to clean disposer completely and then put on dishwasher

I have the disposer connected to the dishwasher drain, and I have used the Glisten and everything is working fine. And have been using it every month once maybe twice a month sometimes and the drainage pipe seems clean

I really wouldn't think so. Although I have not used mine, yet, I will be using in a situation with a connected dishwasher. If you have questions, perhaps manufacturer of either would be a good place to go. Liz

assuming you have a drain at a level lower than the drain plug in the unit.... buy at least 2 feet of hose that fits the drain line and press it onto the drain line

i have used on pvc sewer lines and cast sewer lines. so long as the sewer line is solid, you should not have any problems. my experience as a home owner has been excellent!!! i have opened drains that rotor rooter could not open lol!!! i called them out to help me and told them that i had already run a sewer auger through the sewer and they told me that was their answer and if it did not work for me then they would be wasting their time and my money... glad for the guys honesty.

If it is a new installation you will need to buy those things. If it is a replacement of an existing disposer you can just re-use the old ones. One consideration is inspect the old ones to determine if they are in good condition. Especially the electrical. It should have no damage to the insulation and the connections should be secure and sound. The dishwasher hose is cheep and it's probably is a good idea to replace it even if it looks good. Rubber hose gets brittle with age and the old cliche' better safe than sorry applies. Good luck, have fun.

I don't have a dishwasher where I have this drainer so I don't know if it's dishwasher safe or not.

Yes, If you are installing this in a standard Kitchen sink it will work well. The overall dimension of your sink does not come into play with the drain unless you are working with a custom sink. Most new garbage disposals come with a drain collar. This is a good choice to replace a damaged or worn garbage disposal sink drain.

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)

Its actually quite long. Most of my hose is coiled in the sink as my dishwasher is right next to the sink. The outlets for the hose is on the RIGHT side of the unit, so if you will be needing to put the dishwasher on the right side of the sink, the hoses will run behind the unit and you'll lose a good bit of length.

that should work fine. we had a sink that we tapped into the drain line, but your idea should work. we had no problem other than operator error and got good service when we did need help.

Water from our dishwasher seems to run through this disposer, but please know that I know zero about plumbing, I hired my appliance guy to install. The install was easy for him, no surprises when replacing the old Kitchenaid

No, an existing wall switch will not interfere with the operation of your disposal. An InSinkErator power module connects with your disposal and an electrical outlet (under your sink), but the switch operates on an air pump, not electricity. I have attached a link to the InSinkErator installation guide.http://www.insinkerator.com/en-us/Documents/Disposer/sinktop_switch_brochure.pdf

I have always this product to my drainfield via and outside access point to that system. I would be hesitant to add it via any sink. For a definitive answer call the 800 number on the product label, they are very knowledgeable.

A plastic coupler...use the old one or get a new one....Hope this helps...If your existing fauset is leacking, disconnect the drain line and clean the inside..stuff from the garbage disposal can plug the drain line causing faucet to leak....

The unit requires a separately purchased generic power cord with 3-prong plug. I believe this is standard procedure for disposers. Amazon suggests the InSinkErator CRD-00 kit, but you can also get a suitable cord kit at your local hardware store.

Good Morning Jay,If the label is considered the front of the disposer then the hose connection for the dishwasher is located on the back.

Worked fine for my Kitchen Aid disposal. Note, however, that the new sink may be deeper than the sink it replaces. This may cause some plumbing changes to hook it to the waste pipe system.

I'm not sure. It's a very inexpensive drain cleaner though. It might be worth a shot, I'm sure it wouldn't hurt anything.
