What is the difference between Batch Feed and Continuous Feed Disposals?

As you browse through our selection of Insinkerator garbage disposals, you will notice many say right in the title, continuous feed or batch feed disposal. Most people will read this and think "what's the difference?" These are the two main types of sink garbage disposals. Both models are of the same Insinkerator quality, and which one you will want depends on a few factors, such as frequency of use, who will be using it, personal preference and types of waste you will be putting in it.

Continuous Feed Disposals

Continuous feed garbage disposals are by far the most common type of disposal, most homes have these and they are your regular old garbage disposal. As the name suggests, this means that you can continually dump food and waste down the disposal as it is running. You turn it on by flipping a switch, and most people recommend or have a habit of running water through the disposal as it runs, as it helps to grind food and waste more easily. Insinkerator Badger 5 is a powerful work horse, and the Evolution is a quite clean disposer.

Batch Feed

Batch feed garbage disposals are the type of disposal many of you may have not heard of, and is actually a great thing for those of you with children to worry about. A batch feed disposal works the exact same way as the continuous feed does, you turn it on and it grinds the food, none of the internal workings are different. However this disposal is turned on by a special cover that has to be on in order for it to run. The only disadvantage to this is you cant keep feeding food and waste down the disposal as it is running, it has to all be in there before you can turn it on, however most people do not find this to be a big cause for concern. The upside, as you might imagine, is the safety factor. You dont have to worry about your children with this type of Garbage Disposal, as it makes it near impossible for any accidents or danger.

Why do I need a garbage disposal?

There's a place for kitchen garbage, and it's not underneath your sink or beside your countertop. In fact, no matter where you keep a garbage can, getting rid of food waste can be a messy, smelly chore. Bagged garbage can also attract animals and insects, and create unsanitary conditions around your home.

With an InSinkErator disposal in your kitchen, chicken bones, fruit rinds, coffee grounds and more can go right down the drain and into the garbage disposal -- where they're virtually liquefied to safely flow into your sewage system or septic tank. You'll enjoy a cleaner food preparation area, less cans and bags cluttering your home, and fewer trips with garbage to the curb. What's more, if you've never owned a garbage disposal, you're in for a pleasant surprise. InSinkErator disposals are economical to operate: in fact, they're among the least expensive installed kitchen appliances.
