FAQs

1.  WHY DO PEOPLE BUY AND USE FOOD WASTE DISPOSERS?

Consumers buy and use food waste disposers for three main reas Improve Health Conditions in the Kitchenons:

    Improved Health and Sanitary Conditions for their Family
    By using a food waste disposer in the home, a homemaker immediately improves the sanitary conditions of the kitchen and waste storage areas. Eliminating food waste through a disposer system effectively removes a major cause of insect and rodent infestation, as well as bad odors.

    Convenience and Time Savings
    In today's busy households, using a disposer saves time and provides great convenience in eliminating food waste, especially during meal preparation and cleanup.

    Food Waste Disposers are Environmentally Friendly Environmental Concerns
    Waste disposers are the environmentally friendly method of disposing of food waste. They reduce and recycle waste by shredding and pulping the organic food waste material into very small particles that are flushed down the drain.


2. WHY SHOULD I BUY AN ANAHEIM BIO SHIELD  DISPOSER?
Our disposers use the latest technology including permanent magnet motors that provide high torque and faster grinding to prevent jams. We also utilize corrosion-proof materials to prevent rust and extend the life of the product.                                 top

    Anaheim Bio Shield  disposers also provide the following advantages:
    Energy Efficiency
    Corrosion-Free Materials (Corrosion is the #1 cause of failure in the competitor's units.)
    Competitive Pricing
    Exceptional Quality Standards
    Compactness
    Bio Shield Antimicrobial Protection
    Superior Torque Master Grinding System

3.   WHAT IS BIO SHIELD ANTIMICROBIAL?
Bio Shield Antimicrobial provides protection against bacteria-caused odors. Anaheim has the only disposer with Bio Shield, a unique antimicrobial agent, permanently molded into the “wet” components of the disposer to eliminate bacteria-caused odors. It also inhibits the growth of a wide range of micro organisms.                              top

4.  HOW DOES THE ANAHEIM BIO SHIELD DISPOSER WORK?
All models work by simply and safely grinding food waste material into very fine particles, which are then flushed through the waste pipes without harm. Since Anaheim Bio Shield  disposers use no blades or knives, they are very safe to operate.
5.  ARE ANAHEIM BIO SHIELD DISPOSERS EXPENSIVE TO INSTALL?
Through the use of our Speed Master mounting system, Anaheim Bio Shield  disposers are inexpensive and simple to install. No putty, glues or special tools are necessary.                                                                                                                           top
6.  WILL IT FIT IN A NORMAL SINK?
The Anaheim Bio Shield  disposers are designed to fit sinks with a 90mm sink hole. If the sink hole is not this size, it is a simple matter to connect your disposer by use of one of the following methods:
  1. 1.   Stainless steel, ceramic or marble sink holes can be enlarged by
          using either a hole punch tool or a hole saw.
    2.   Porcelain sinks can be fitted with a 60mm adapter that is available
          to replace the current mounting assembly on the Anaheim Bio Shield  
  2.       disposer. 
7.  IS THE ANAHEIM BIO SHIELD  DISPOSER DIFFICULT TO USE?
No, waste disposal with the Anaheim Bio Shield  disposer is quite simple. Four easy steps are all that is needed:

    1.   Turn on the Water.
    2.   Switch on the Anaheim Bio Shield  disposer.
    3.   Scrape the food waste into the disposer.
    4.   Let the water and the disposer run for 25 seconds after the waste is gone             and then turn off the water and the disposer.                                     top

8. IS THE ANAHEIM BIO SHIELD  DISPOSER NOISY? Exclusive Torque Master Grinding System
All of our disposers feature the exclusive  Torque Master Grinding System with its balanced turntable and armature that help keep noise and vibration to a minimum. None of the models are noisy, but the degree of sound insulation improves with the model range. The Heavy Duty and Deluxe models are exceptionally quiet due to their full sound shell insulation.
9.  WHAT IF MY  DISPOSER JAMS?
This is a problem mostly experienced with our competitor's products. They use induction motors which are slow starting and could jam if food is placed in the disposer before it is switched ON. Anaheim Bio Shield  disposers are designed not to jam by using permanent magnet motors. This motor produces high torque (twisting power) immediately when switched on. This feature prevents jams.

In the unlikely event that a Anaheim Bio Shield  disposer jams, dejamming is very simple. Turn off the switch to the disposer, check for foreign objects, dislodge the object by rotating the turntable with a long screwdriver or broom handle and remove the object.                                                                                                         top

10.  WITH ALL OF THE WATER ACTING ON THE METAL PARTS, CAN THE DISPOSER FAIL DUE TO RUST?
No, because Anaheim Bio Shield  disposers are constructed from stainless steel (grinding components) and thermoplastic materials (grinding chamber). With the exception of the Economy unit, all models are covered by a lifetime corrosion warranty. The grinding components on the Economy model have the capacity to corrode eventually; this does not impede the operation of the unit.

11.  DO FOOD WASTE DISPOSERS CREATE AN UNPLEASANT ODOR?           top
We also are the only disposer with Bio-Shield antimicrobial for odor protection. Some waste disposers smell because food accumulates under the Splas Bio Shield Antimicrobial Protection for Odor Controlhguard and other plastic components of the grinding chamber. This accumulation allows bacteria from food particles to grow and generate odors. This cannot be cleaned with our competitor's units without removing and dismantling their disposer from the sink. All Commodore disposer models have a Splashguard that is easily removed from the top of the sink for cleaning or replacing. Along with the Bio-Shield protection, this feature helps eliminate unpleasant odors. Our other products, including Mr. Scrappy Disposa Clean and Disposer Brush can be used for effective odor prevention (Mr. Scrappy Disposer Accessories).

12.  WILL THE MOTOR WEAR OUT?                                                                 top
All motors have the capacity to wear out eventually. How quickly depends on the stress or the load placed on the motor. The Anaheim Bio Shield  disposer models are designed to be long lasting. The durability and performance increases through the model range. The Heavy Duty and Deluxe models have slightly bigger motors which generate more torque and cutting power. This puts less stress on the motor, giving the Anaheim Bio Shield  disposer longer life.

The use of permanent magnet motors in Anaheim Bio Shield  disposers is vital. The nature of the motor is that it increases torque as the load increases. This not only means top performance when a full load of food waste is being ground, but also prevents jams from occurring frequently.

13.  ARE ANAHEIM BIO SHIELD DISPOSERS SAFE TO USE?                            top
Yes, because they contain no knives or blades they use centrifugal force generated by the turntable to hurl the food waste against the grinding ring, shredding it into fine pieces. 
14.  WHAT KINDS OF WASTE CAN I PUT IN MY DISPOSER?
The Anaheim Bio Shield  disposer will take most types of food waste, including:

Small Bones

Vegetable Scraps

Chicken Bones

Grapefruit Halves

Fish Heads

Melon Rinds

Fish Bones

15.  WHAT DO’S AND DON’TS ARE RECOMMENDED?                                                
Here are a few simple DO’S AND DON’TS that will keep your disposer working smoothly for many, many years.                                                                     
  top
DO:
  • Use a medium flow of COLD water. If hot water is used, grease tends to coat the pipes instead of being flushed away.
  • Grind hard materials (cooked bones, pits of fruit). This is necessary every so often to keep the lugs moving freely and to keep the grind chamber clean.
  • Do continue running cold water for 25 seconds after grinding is completed to flush the drain line. Remember the drain line from your sink may run for 30 feet or more before it exits your home.
  • Flush for cleaning with cold water. An occasional lemon or lime slice will help to deodorize the grind chamber and elements.
DON'T:
  • Don't use HOT water when grinding. It is acceptable to drain hot water into the disposer between grinding periods.
  • Don't turn off disposer until grinding is complete. Wait until ALL food is ground before turning the disposer off.
  • Don't grind extremely fibrous materials (corn husks). These materials tend to form hard clusters of fiber which do not drain properly and interfere with the grinding elements.
  • Don't fill disposer with a lot of vegetable peels all at once. Instead, turn the water and disposer on first, and then feed the peels in gradually.
  • Don't grind clam or oyster shells, glass, metal, cloth, or harsh chemicals. These materials are too abrasive and will eventually wear down the grind chamber.
  • Don't dispose large amounts of fat or hot grease in food waste disposers.
