My garbage disposal finally stopped. Where do I get a replacement? At Big B’s Plumbing, we have you covered for your garbage disposal replacement. Your garbage disposal should be replaced approximately every 10 to 15 years, and we’ve heard some of them lasting even longer. Like all appliances, if you properly care for them, you can expect them to perform for many years. However, it can be very confusing when making a garbage disposal purchase. You have 1/3, 3/4, and one horsepower models. Just like so many other appliances, garbage disposals have made so many advancements in design and technologies. Before walking into your local home center, do some research before making your purchase and avoid buyer’s remorse. In other words, know your options when it comes to your garbage disposal. The latest garbage disposals have options you didn’t even know existed.

How To Choose The Right Size Garbage Disposal For Your Home
If you have a large family of four to five that uses the disposal a lot, then you’ll want a 3/4 horsepower motor. The Badger 3/4 HP disposals are a reliable choice, and the galvanized steel construction will take care of almost any food scraps. If you want to upgrade any of the InSinkErator Evolution Series, 3/4 HP will never let you down. This is one sweet garbage disposal. It comes with stainless steel blades and MultiGrind technology, and the SoundSeal technology will have your garbage disposal purring like a kitten. In addition, this disposal comes with a standard 8-year warranty. Considering how long our garbage disposals last, it’s well worth the cost of the upgrade.
Small To Medium Families 1/2 Horsepower Garbage Disposal
If you have a small family of two to three, maybe condo living or a small home with minimal entertaining, the Badger 5-1/2 HP continuous feed disposal is perfect for small to medium families. While we stock InSinkErators, there are other good-quality garbage disposals on the market that we will install. For example, Waste King Legend Series 1/2 HP continuous feed sound-insulated disposal is also a good choice.
The InSinkErator Evolution Compact 3/4 HP continuous feed garbage disposal only comes in 3/4 horsepower and one horsepower. Having this unit in a small to medium home would not be overkill, but it would be an upgrade. If you can fit it in the budget, take the plunge, and purchase the InSinkErator Evolution. You won’t be disappointed. Big B’s Plumbing has you covered for all your garbage disposal sales and installation needs. License #986152
