The InSinkErator F-201R Replacement Filter is the only water filter specifically designed for instant hot and hot/cool water dispensers. When paired with the InSinkErator Stainless Steel Tank, our carbon filters provide fresh-tasting water by reducing chlorine taste and odor. The F-201R filter can also be adapted to any refrigerator, icemaker or virtually any drinking water system.
 

Polyethylene tube from filter to HW dispenser has turned brown.

In the process of replacing my F-201R filter, I noticed that the polyethylene tube from the filter to the SST-FLTR HW dispenser has turned very brown. (It looks pretty gross. and I'm not sure I even want to think about what made the hose turn brown!) I was told by someone on the "Answer Line" that Insinkerator no longer carries these parts and that I could order a new installation kit from the parts supplier (at a significant cost) or I would need to order a new filter system (also at a very significant cost). Neither of these options seems reasonable to me. Would it be possible for me to simply purchase a new piece of 3/8" polyethylene tube from a plumbing supplier and re-use the quick-connect fittings that are already in place? Thanks for any help you can give me.

The InSinkErator Badger Series food waste disposers are a reliable and functional choice when affordability is the prime concern. Choose from three models, each with a space-saving compact design.
 

Where do we dispose broken/ non-functioning InSinkErator in Will County, Illinois

I replaced our broken Badger 1 with newer unit. Where do we dispose old broken/non functioning Badger 1 in Will County, Illinois
Hi, this is Jerica from InSinkErator® Customer Service. Currently, we do not directly offer any recycling or re-use program for old disposers, hot water dispensers, or filters. We recommend you reach out to your local waste collection agency for proper disposal instructions in your area and to see if they offer a small appliance recycling program for disposers/dispensers. For more inquiries, please do not hesitate to contact us through insinkeratorfeedback@emerson.com or call InSinkErator AnswerLine at 1 (800) 558-5700. Thank you.

The InSinkErator Mounting Gasket Kit includes two replacement sink gaskets to be used in conjunction with specific InSinkErator disposer models. Refer to the included installation instructions for quick and easy gasket replacement. Not for use with Evolution Series and E606 disposers.
 

Does this gasket fit a 900 model?

S/N is 15101290450
Hi DocI,

The replacement sink baffle or mounting gasket for a Badger 900 is the standard mounting gasket included in the InSinkErator Mounting Gasket Kit (MGK-00).

The Mounting Gasket Kit includes one standard and one deluxe mounting gasket. These gaskets are properly labeled. To ensure proper installation, please make sure to use the appropriate gasket for your disposer. I have included links below for your reference. Also, please be reminded that the disposer should be uninstalled when replacing its mounting gasket.

InSinkErator accessories may be purchased through most home improvement centers, plumbing supply houses and online stores.

power cord

I bought an insinkerator but there is no power cord. Are there any that have a power cord that is already connected to the disposal so it can just be plugged in?
Hi, this is Jerica from InSinkErator® Customer Service. We offer both corded and un-corded units. Many retailers choose to carry the un-corded units with a separate power cord kit in order to accommodate as many people as possible. Each person's electrical situation is different so if you have purchased an un-corded unit, you can find a power cord kit from most retail stores or plumbing suppliers. Should you need assistance from us, please do not hesitate to contact us through insinkeratorfeedback@emerson.com or call InSinkErator AnswerLine at 1 (800) 558-5700. Thank you.

The Evolution Compact food waste disposer is perfect for small households and houses with restricted cabinet space.
 

Will this garbage disposal fit with an ADA-accessible sink?

I have a kitchen sink that has a slanted wood front piece (rather than a straight cabinet) for wheelchair accessibility. Will this garbage disposal be small enough to fit within the space behind that slanted wood piece?
Hi, this is Jerica from InSinkErator® Customer Service. There are no limitations as to what type of sinks our units can be installed onto. A disposer will fit a single bowl or half bowl, stainless steel or other material. To accurately check if d disposer’s size will fit your sink cabinet, it is best to check its specification sheet available online. If you have further inquiries, please do not hesitate to contact us through insinkeratorfeedback@emerson.com or call InSinkErator AnswerLine at 1 (800) 558-5700. Thank you.

I purchased a new f1000s filtration system and need to know how the In and Out water line tubes disconnect. Might be a silly simply question but I do

Disconnect from the old insinkerator filtraction system. Thank you

How many amps does the unit draw when switch is turned on?

I have the disposer plugged into an outlet that is protected by a GFCI. When I turn the switch on for the disposer the GFCI trips. I'm wondering if the disposer pulls to many amps for my GFCI.
Hi, this is Jerica from InSinkErator® Customer Service. We recommend that disposers, whether wired directly or plugged in, be connected to a 15 to 20 amp. circuit. Household disposers have a spike immediately upon start up for less than a second. Due to this spike, a 15 to 20 amp. circuit is required and meets requirements for this brief load. If you need assistance with your disposer, please do not hesitate to contact us through insinkeratorfeedback@emerson.com or call InSinkErator AnswerLine at 1 (800) 558-5700. Thank you.

The redesigned stainless steel hot water tank (HWT-F1000S), which includes the new water filtration system (F-1000S), will feature a new high-end appearance. It is re-engineered for longer life and improved performance with a 2/3-gallon capacity tank, tool-free connections to ease installation, and dry-start protection for peace of mind. This tank provides up to 60 cups of near-boiling, filtered water per hour.
 

Filter inlet & outlet connections.

I just replaced my water filter and found that the inlet and outlet lines on the filter head were reversed when installed. Will the filter function properly or do I need to get a new filter head and re-install?
Hi, this is Jerica from InSinkErator® Customer Service. To accurately assist, kindly send an email to insinkeratorfeedback@emerson.com with a photo of hot the filter was installed and your complete contact information. Someone will get back to you immediately. Thank you.
