Do you remove the disposal's flexible rubber splash guard and replace it with this Danco device or do you use them both, together?

If you mean the rubber insert that surrounds the inside of the drain, this works fine with that in place.

Use together with splash guard. Can't leave in when washing dishes and using the hard plastic disposal sink plug. So glad I don't have to worry about silverware anymore..

Leave the splash guard in place and use them together. I absolutely love this device. To keep it clean, I put in the dish washer when I run a cycle.

Yes, it does. As I mentioned in my review the mounting parts were interchangeable with the old ones so I avoided removing the old collar and mounting bracket. The splash guards were also interchangeable so I used the new one, placing it in the old collar.The new disposer is so quiet you have to listen closely to hear whether it's running. Don't go off and leave it running by mistake!

I just bought this sink and my husband installed it. And, no nothing special needed. However the disposal is heavy and awkward to get it installed. We finally ended up using a small jack to balance disposal while making sure it was secure. Good luck!

I assume the black thingy you are referring to is the rubber gasket between the disposal and the flange that also partially covers the drain opening. It can be replaced if it wears out (you can buy an insinkerator brand gasket from HomeDepot), but you need to unhook the disposal from the drain to do it. It is not a "quick release" type.

I really don't know. Is the Blanco 3 a disposal? I don't think different brands can work together. I bought the adapter but didn't use it. I installed the complete unit just as it was set up from the drain down.

Erin: Just reach in and pull out the old splash guard/baffle and press in the new one. Wetting the new unit will make pressing it in that much easier.

You replace the splashguard from the top pulling it upwards and making sure the unit is always off and not running.

There is a small lip (~3/16) on the inside bottom of the flange that the basket rests on. This flange is longer than the standard disposal flange. This means that the disposal unit will drop down and you may have to get longer drain pipes that attach to the elbow. I had to do this.

you can go to Lowes on line and get a Danco disposal genie. $9.99That will eliminate your problem without having to remove your disposal and replacing the part

From what I can tell there should be no issue - sink drain holes tend to be standard and they are both Kohler. I used this disposal flange with the rubber baffle from the disposer without issue. The gasket is somewhat flow restrictive, but, does keep it all quiet.

I am not sure. I fitted my sink with two drains and no disposal. Disposals are a plumber's dream! The flanges which came with the sink were flimsy, for such an expensive sink. I bought separate, quality ones ($60 each) at the hardware store.

Funny you should ask today...we are just installing it this afternoon. We actually do not have a disposal. I am sure it would be standard to instll it to the drain just fine. It is a very nice sink and we are happy with the purchase. Looks awesome.

That depends on your old disposal. You will probably need to replace some parts.

Plumber installed this disposal in my condo...we do have a dishwasher...and he had not problem with the installation. Was done very quickly. So I feel comfortable saying YES to your question! It's a great disposal, BTW.... pretty quiet too.

I bought an insinkerator with my new blanco sink. I did not use the flange that is included in the disposal. I chose to use Blanco 3-in 1 for aesthetic reason. This includes a cover for the basket strainer.

yes, i have install several of these sinks. the only issue is to plan the ptrap so it does not conflict with the drain and the disposal.

I remove the strainer and then this fits perfectly. When I am done, I remove the stopper and slip the strainer in place to collect the food particles from the draining sink water. Works well.
