Testing
Once you have successfully connected your waste disposal, it is ready for use. However, it is still necessary to
ensure all your connections are secure.
A test run must be carried out to identify any immediate faulty connections or leaks.
1.
First, turn on the cold water to a medium-high flow, allowing the water to flow through the waste disposer.
2.
Check to see if there are leaks in the plumbing connections or waste disposer.
3.
Now, turn on the waste disposer and recheck all connections for leaks or loose joints.
4.
If at this point you see no leaks or loose joints, your waste disposer is safe for use.
5.
Turn off your waste disposer first and then the water supply.
