Whirlpool Waste Disposal Discharge Connection

[jaydebruyne]

Waste disposals don't have standard discharge connections, do they?

I've got to replumb this monstrosity tomorrow but trying to find a mcalpine elbow with a socket one end and a plain other end to connect to the waste disposal discharge connector... Can't find one...

The socket end is going to a thread, not a pipe

can you get into main drainage? eg main pipe if so run a dedicated waste

 

[jaydebruyne]

can you get into main drainage? eg main pipe

Nope.. Can only get to inch an half discharge pipe

 

[ShaunCorbs]

Nope.. Can only get to inch an half discharge pipe

yea can you t into that you could use straight female and then a tight 90

 

[jaydebruyne]

But then there would be no trap between the disposal unit and the discharge pipe..

put an in-line one down stream if you can hep20

 

[jaydebruyne]

Yeah I was thinking about putting in an inline.. So many options to play with lol I'll see what my brain is like in the morning and go with the best option it will muster up..

not a problem remember take pics once done so we can see what you decided

I ended up doing it like this:

 

[jaydebruyne]

Space was very limited as there are 2 drawers that go in this cabinet and copper pipework against the wall...

 

[snowhead]

Very tidy.
And the socket is accessible too.

Looks like a quality job, I've found these can be the worst type of job, limited space and lots to fit in

Tell me about it, at one point I had to sit on my knees and figure out how the blazes I was gonna do it..
