Welcome to TM Hughes & Son Gas Services Ltd. We install Waste Disposal Units in Loughton.

What Is a Waste Disposal Unit?

A Waste Disposal Unit is a compact device that fits beneath your kitchen sink grinds, and washes away food scraps. This simple yet effective appliance helps reduce the amount of food waste in landfills and will save you trips outside to empty your food bin.

How Does It Work?

A waste disposal unit is installed directly beneath the kitchen sink, replacing the usual drain fitting.

The unit connects to the sink’s drain outlet and your home’s waste pipe. A power supply runs to the grinding mechanism. This setup ensures that any suitable food scraps fed into the unit can be shredded and washed away through the plumbing system.

Most Waste Disposal Units contain a spinning metal plate or grinding ring. Once switched on and combined with running water, this mechanism breaks down food scraps into fine particles carried away through your drain. The process is quick and safe.

What Can You Put in It?

Although Waste Disposal Units can deal with various organic scraps, knowing their limits is important. Soft fruit and vegetable peelings, leftover cooked food, and small amounts of eggshells are fine. However, large bones, fibrous materials (such as artichokes or celery), and significant amounts of cooking oil can cause clogs.

The Benefits Of A New Waste Disposal Unit

By installing a waste disposal unit, you will reduce the amount of waste going to landfills while preventing unpleasant smells from coming from your kitchen bin. It’s an excellent solution for all, from families to busy professionals. Anyone seeking a convenient, time-saving approach to food waste disposal.
