How did I ever get anything done before UA-cam? All those do-it-yourself home repair books. What a difference it makes to have someone show you clearly and practically how every step gets done. An excellent video; thanks much.
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it!
Your tip on connecting the retainer spring is very much appreciated. After 20 minutes of un-successively trying it my way I found your video and with you other suggestions, the Badger 5 runs great with no leaks.
The most clearly explained video I watched about installing Insinkerator Badger 5. I tried to install this today and I have a hard time trying to insert the ring. It is so hard to open enough to push into the groove. I will keep trying.
Thank you for a detailed step by step video. Wonderful!! I changed my leaking disposal last night after having to catch water leak from unit in a tub all week. I chose to replace only the insinkerator and leave the sink flange in place. One issue, the tab ring on disposal would not fully rotate either way as with my old leaking 1/2 hp Badger unit, seems locked in place. After fitting 3 tabs on ramp, you rotate the entire unit to hoses location.
Great video! I’ve never replaced a garbage disposal so I really appreciated the step by step instruction. The hardest part was definitely snapping the housing ring back into place. I had to take a break. Also, the “how the garbage disposal works” was also very helpful. Saved me time in determining if I should repair or replace the disposal.
Glad it helped! Yes I've done so many of these installs, I don't even try to look up at the clip spring nay more, I just reach up and do it by feel. Once you do it a few times you know exactly how far up it's supposed to go and when it will snap in place. You can also have someone push down on the drain flange from the top side of the sink to hold the flange down and stable for you.
After trying for about ten minutes to get the housing ring back into place, I watched this video, but then figured out to sit on the floor, put both my legs under the sink to give me better leverage to hold onto the flange and stretch the ring to snap it on. Got it on the first try doing it this way. I used the same technique when I had to hold the disposal up so I could attach it to the flange.
Supreme video down to the detail my just leak will replace today thanks for giving me the confident to replace this.
Glad I could help
Additional tips for do-it-yourselfers. Masking tapes of different colors are always handy tools to have. When installing the sink hole flange assembly, from under the sink, I use tape to hold everything up in place snugly against the underside of the sink. (the fiber gasket, backup metal flange, metal mounting ring and with the three screws in it) Now I have two hands free to install that pesky snap ring into place the first try every time. Hope this helps.
The best case scenario is if you have a second person push down on the drain flange from up top while you snap the spring into place anyway I've done it so many times that I don't even need that I just know how to peel the spring apart and snap it up over the groove
@@jeffostroff Great tip to use the weight of the new disposer to hold the flange in place temporarily while you get the %@*+@# spring clip started
Finally an actual step-by-step video without omissions, deletions, and edits. Thank you!
Glad to help LOLA!
Really liked your video, including your calm manner and little asides, like the one about putting dirty putty back into the container (“Who does that?!”). Began watching your SUPER helpful video just to see what parts I need to buy, but was going to hire someone else to install it. But now I think I could do it myself. Thank you!
Great video.
Fun fact - I'm an electrician, my brother a plumber. He 'let's' my side of the company do these because he can never get the apprentices to remember the dishwasher plug in the grinding chamber. Once it starts to shred on the first grind, oh, gosh, what a mess cleaning that up.
I figured out those clip rings a few decades back. You do it brilliantly. Not having as much strength as a man, I start the clip at one edge and by the time I've worked in about 30°, it just snaps all the rest of the way. No muscles needed.
I use every muscle in my hand and forearm for about 20 seconds to get it to work
Just installed one of these as a replacement for my mom yesterday. Today she called and said water coming out the sink overflow...now I know why! Thanks Jeff!!
What turned out to be the problem?
@@jeffostroff definitely dish washer
Had the same issue, wish i had watch this video before i install mine. Its kinda stupid that they put that plastic stopper inside the dishwasher drain connector
@@twistedsd not stupid because many don't have dishwasher
@@AgentOffice
Thanks for pointing that out, the thought never cross my mind👍🏿
I watched about 8 or 9 other videos to help me from start to finish but yours was the most helpful. Nobody explained the flange going uphill like you did and that was key to getting it on for me. That was the hardest part since it was heavy, holding it and turning the flange at the same time. Snapping the housing ring was also pretty difficult. I took a break and rewatched your video and was ready to tackle it. I used a screwdriver to help pop it on, maybe suggest that to someone as well. Really great job. Thanks.
Awesome! I find it easier to not even try to look at the clip, I just feel it spreading out then snapping into place.
@@jeffostroff The first thing it reminded me of was a ring spreader for piston repair.
@@JohnFourtyTwo It is a nice luxury to have a second person with you to hold your hand down on the drain up inside the sink so it's nice and sturdy as you try to spread the Spring and click it into place
I am more than grateful for your video. My husband always did these things but he now has Alzheimers so it falls on me. I know I can do it after watching your great instructions and tips! Thank you! ❤
Son of a gun THANK YOU for mentioning the piece needs to be removed before installing the drainage hose from the dishwasher because I made that mistake just recently couldn't figure out why water was not draining! But unlike the other schmuck I watched who DIDN'T mention this, you did so many thanks!
You're a great instructor and an obvious expert with this stuff. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. 👍
Great how to video. I used it today and experienced no issues with the installation of my new garbage disposal. Thanks!
Glad to help!
Thanks, replaced mine in no time and with no difficulty. All of your tips really helped, I didn't even need to read the directions :)
Awesome Chris, some of these comes with page after page of instructions
Thank you for the guide. Mine stared pouring water out of the bottom and needed to replace asap. Was able to replace without any experience.
Excellent!
GOOD STUFF! Very thorough, explained clearly, and easy to understand. I like the clear trap. Nice touch.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Lol i forgot if the gasket goes over the black 90 or in first. Good video straight to the point no filler info.
Glad to help Dave!
Appreciate the video, helped me with my 1/3 HP install - always prefer quick how-to videos like this over the instructions. Easier to see it actually being done than a bunch of text and vague drawings. I was lucky enough to not have to replace flange, the old one was in good shape so I'll just keep a spare :)
Glad it helped thanks for watching Jake!
Great step-by-step. @16:00 checking for leaks-I like to put in the drain stopper and fill sink at least 1/2 way. Then turn on the disposer and let sink drain. Sometimes the vibration of a running disposal will cause a leak( or make a tiny leak bigger) No comebacks !!
New and better disposals don't vibrate. Also vibration often caused by cheap thin steal sinks.
Thank You for showing me how to install a new garage disposal!
Happy to help nina!
I've seen tons of videos on how to remove the old flange and install a new badger 500. I'm kinda handy but disabled with a bad back. I needed to get things right the first try and this is the most informative video.
Touche!!! Excellent and far far better then any "how to's"
Thanks so much!
Thanks Paul I'm glad you liked it and be careful on your back if you are disabled 'cause it's a real pain to reach up there and get that thing elevated and hold it and get the ring clip attached at the same time
This video was very helpful I enjoyed watching it. I am thinking about adding one at my aunts house because she doesn’t have one and not even an electrical outlet but I’m thinking about tapping the electrical to the dishwasher. Then for the switch I’ll ether do an air switch or a switch loop. Great job.😎😎
Just to let you know though the modern electrical code wants a separate circuit for the garbage disposal and the dishwasher period now of course many people will tap into an existing outlet on the counter but sometimes in the older places you have no choice unless you're doing a full remodel and putting in a new electrical panel and you're then able to route new circuits.
Oh ok 👌
Thank you, this video was very helpful and allowed me to change my garbage disposal without any help!
Great to hear!
Installed and ran the dishwasher.. forgot the damn plug!! Thanks for the help! Quick fix 👍🏻👍🏻
Great help as always. I was able to use the cord off the old one and the new unit works great. Your videos are so helpful!
Yes you can use the old cord, I just prefer to start everything off brands big and new and shiny and clean when press when prospective buyers come into my properties that I'm flipping I don't want them to see anything that looks old
Video was a great lesson how to be confident in replacing my GDU. Easy to follow and covered all the steps and tricks to be successful. Thank you so much. Steve.
Glad to help Steve!
Great video and instruction! Replaced a leaking disposal today. First time ever installing one (Badger insinkerator 5XL) Only thing I didn't do was change out the sink flange, mounting ring etc. Already had dishwasher line connection so that was an easy step. The only mishap I had was the ground wire broke off so I had to restrip wire to get enough length to attach to ground to screw. Total time approx. 90 minutes. Thanks...so glad I found your channel and I did subscribe!
Glad it worked out for you!
I thought I recognized that voice, and then I looked at the channel title. Hi, Jeff. I watched all your videos on the condo collapse. Good info there, and now here. Thanks!
By the way, I found you before I tried the Insinkerator site. Those guys make it seem like any dummy can do it, especially if he (the dummy) has a pretty lady helping. They always have a new , clean install , everything straight, and plenty of space and light. Not like me and probably most other people trying to replace a disposal in a typical 100 year old kitchen. They make nice videos, but they are mostly worthless.
Glad to help, thanks!
thank you for the tip about knocking out the plastic peace.
Thanks for your help…saved me time, money and frustration 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it!
I know this is 2 years old, but, THANK YOU!!! A absolutely no nonsense, articulate and informative istall video. With that said, I watch the part of "everyone forgets this piece"....I noted it, made a metal note, got everything installed- perfect!!!! Ran the dishwasher later (yeah... you can probably tell where this is going) after the wife freaking out, and it's cleaning up water..I thought what else can break....I got dustracted by the wiring... and later than night I actually facepalmed myself - instantly knew what I had done. Yup, forhot to pop that piece out the dishwasher inlet...🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
LOL, yup so many people forget. They should hand a big yellow tag on it to remind people
Love this how to vid. So helpful and easy step by step directions. Thank you so much.👍👍👍👍
You are so welcome!
Thanks Jeff, just a small detail, where to put the seal, fixed our leak, great video :-)
nice. nice trick using the allen to tighten the flange
I did find it helpful, I did! So... thanks again. I guess I know what I will be doing this weekend.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for the video. It was very helpful. I just finished installing my garbage disposal using the video as a guide, and it works great.
You're welcome!
I always learn something from your videos
Awesome, I'm glad to help!
Great and detailed video. Thank you for sharing this information. Helped me to install a garbage disposal in a kitchen remodel.
Glad it helped!
Awesome video! Great display and explanation! Thx u
Thanks so much for this video. Followed your instructions and replaced my faulty disposer. ✌🏿🙌🏿👌🏿
Super-duper helpful guide. I’m doing an exact replacement (Badger 5 to Badger 5), so I’m assuming I can use the existing flange and just pop the new unit in place.
One thing: DO NOT PUNCH OUG THE DISHWASHER PLUG IF YOU DON’T HAVE A DISHWASHER! Trust me on this!🤡🤡🤡
Thank you for this video Sir! I just replaced ours following your instructions and it went perfectly.
Awesome Patrick congrats on getting that done yourself and saving some money
,,,👍
Awesome demonstration bud. Thank you tons!!
Best instruction on this Badger bar none!!!!!!
Thanks this helped with the electrical part!
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it!
Thank for the video. 2 questions:
1. This is the first disposal in my family, so I am not sure, but do you need a Kitchen Sink Strainer before the garbage disposal?
2. How did you connect the switch to the disposal?
Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
thanks man, I need to install the same disposer tomorrow. This will help a lot!
Awesome, hope it went well for you.
@@jeffostroff It went well and it's all installed, thanks again!!
Enjoy these vids & it’s cool that able to “chat” while we’re watching them. Appreciate it👍🏻
Have a great nite/week, & see ya L8R
Cheers✌🏼
Thanks for checking in tonight, I love to see what other folks like you are finding out in the trenches. Loved that cracked disposal you found, would love to see a video on that one.
Good video just wanted to mention that on the wiring the white neutral wire goes on the cord with the bead running along the cord.
Great point!
Thank you for the video. You helped me install mine step by step!
Getting the damn thing pushed up into the flange and getting the tabs started is the hardest part of it - and you left that out! Worthless.
We show the tail end of it riding up the ramp. The tiny door opening in the sink did not allow me enough room in the position I needed in to get a view with the camera. But we talk about it starting at 14:31 and showing the second half of it climbing up the ramp on the flange.
Thanks for your videos and explanations. Dissassenbling the leaking disposal was a fascinating and informative video, I'll be needing do this now, since I just noticed ours leaking recently. It is a less than 5 yr old Insinkerator professionally installed, that I, THANKFULLY!!!, had set a plastic tub of under sink cleaners and items, but when I went to get something from the tub, noticed it was nearly filled with water!! It's only slightly dripping now, but corrosion is visible around the wiring plate like shown in your examples.
It's like they are designed to leak!
@@jeffostroff , bad as it is, at least they're not more involved a repair than they are.🤷♂️ Small favor there....
Thank you for the detailed video, VERY helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
Jeff you did not show us how to connect the garbage disposal to the sink. I know it is difficult to lift the garbage disposal and turn at the same time. I use the car jack and a piece of wood to lift the disposal. Thank you for showing the video. Always learn something from you.
Yes there was just no way to coordinate with the opening so tiny I couldn't even fit myself in there. So the next project or I'm doing one of my own remodels on 1 of my own foreclosure projects and I use double doors with no frame in the middle to block me I can get a better view to video, show it better.
No problem fitting the camera in there for the rest of the steps.
This video was very helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
Great high quality video with clear instruction, thank you!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching
I gave video this a thumbs up. Very clear and easy to understand. I have a question about that piece of black tubing and worm gear clamps used to extend the horizontal wall pipes to the p-trap. What do you call it and where can I find one? Thanks.
nice video, very easy steps
Great video. Have replaced a couple of these Badgers before but at 80 years old I realized that that things may have changed, so I checked out your video. (Viewed it three times) Very easy to follow and understand. Fantastic little tips along the way. Really appreciated it.
You did a good job, thanks, Will 👍😁
Glad it helped
I'm getting ready to replace my leaking disposal pretty soon, I have a bucket underneath for now, fortunately I discovered the leak before any damage was done to the cabinet.
I repaired it last year with some JB Weld after my ex put a dozen eggshells through the grinder because someone told her it's good for the blades and drain; it stopped the line up like cement instead. Fortunately it was just the horizontal drain line that fed into the main drain that was clogged. There was so much back-pressure on the clog that it broke the plastic housing fitting the horizontal drain attached to, but the JB Weld fixed it perfectly.
For some reason it's leaking now and there's a lot of rust on the ring that screws into the sink and don't know if I need to replace the ring, gasket, or disposal. It still runs fine, just don't know if the leak is isolated to the attachment ring or inside the unit since it's 12 years old.
Great video and looking forward to your others and new ones.
What you are supposed to use is ice cubes, let the blades chop them up and it scours the inside of the unit. Then the tiny powder ice particles just melt away, no clogs
@@jeffostroff Exactly! I do this once a week.
When I was working in the scullery in the Navy and Merchant Marines a problem was people putting pasta and rice in the disposal but not run enough water to flush it out of the system. I always ran the water and disposal for about 10 minutes after the last scrap of food went down the drain to make sure it all got out of the greywater drain lines regardless if rice and pasta were involved.
Thanks Jeff, you rock!
You bet, thanks for watching Nate!
Huge thank you for this. Completed the task.. took a while just from the lovely *&%## spring but rest was not too hard with the information you provided! Great vid
Thank you! I did it thanks to you! 😁
Glad it helped! Thanks for watching Carol!
Great video! Helped me remove and replace mine.
Awesome Joe, glad to help!
Excellent video
Thank you very much!
Nice 👍
Thanks ✌
Thank you for the vid! What do you do with the plug if you don't use a dishwasher, but might in the future? or if a subsequent owner plans to?
You must leave the plug in there if you're not hooking up a dishwasher, otherwise whenever you run water down the drain it could escape out of this opening there or some people remove the plug but then cap off the stub that leads to where the dishwasher would connect up
Awesome!!! Thank you!!
Thanks for the information young man.
You are welcome, and thanks for watching Craig!
Thanks for this video and helpful tips
Thanks, glad you liked it Chris!
Helped me, thank you!
You're welcome!
Great video Jeff! Our dishwasher connection is on the opposite side of where the drain pipe is. But the insinkerator, like yours, has both connections on the same side. Any tips on how to resolve? We are thinking the dishwasher hose could possibly wrap around to fit, but not ideal.
I have done the hose wrapping. I bring it in high on the side of the cabinet hole, then across the sink and down to the back side of the disposal where it curves around and plugs in. Try to maintain that downward slop from the high point where it enters the cabinet, all the way down 10" or so to where it connects tot he disposal.
Great video thanks
Great video dude.
Glad you enjoyed it
Very instructive
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it!
Hi Jeff! Thank you for sharing your talent! My Badger is #1, can this be replaced by #5, or any number? Thank you again! Stay safe always. God Bless.
Yes all of those badger models should fit into the same hole in the sink
Much appreciated! Thank you!
that's the one I bought for a friend and it leaked from the bottom. Brand new too! I'm returning it and getting a different brand.
I have installed dozens of those over the years I never had one fail out-of-the-box so you must have just got a bad one believe me they're perfectly fine to use
Another good and proper job. Putty's better than silicone, for many reasons, . When you put flange on it always mostly lifts up and putty can go back with no problems, and easy to clean up. I'll give you a little hint here that will save your ass, when you make up the flange the last little bit squeeze it with a channel lock, till you here it click in. Hey you could make a video on the importance of stainless putty, especially on acrylic tops. You just hate to get these call backs 6 months later, then the disposal drops off, and the nice job you did on the lav now has discoloration. One last thing, is forgetting to take that little plastic plug of the disposal, turning it on in front of the customer, and them saying, what's that noise? They'e a bugger to get out after the fact.
Yup I've gotten calls from people who did the install and and wondered why they had water in the bottom of their dishwasher because they forgot to remove the plug
Very helpful, thank you!
You're welcome!
My disposal just leaked, from the bottom. I just cleaned it up and took pictures of the model... I'm s senior with uncooperative hands. :) So, I'm not sure if I can change the disposal myself. However, I greatly appreciate your teaching method. At least, now, I will know what to expect of a plumber, if unable to do it myself. The existing disposal is a Badger insinkerator, 5 (circled) nest to "2 yr warranty".( I have no idea when it was installed.) Model 5-84A. amps 6.3 HP 1/2 volts 120 Hz60 1PH. ASSE Class F insulation thermal protection E17939. Listed UL (encircled) 517L. I realize this is TMI. However, I don't know what I don't know, as far as what information is needed. My question is, Do I look for the exact same replacement? Or, is there a better option? I installed a washer/dryer, a few years back, in another room, some 30 feet away from the kitchen sink. I recall an issue with the kitchen sink plumbing/water bubbling at the time. My point is that the w/d, the dishwasher and a filter are somehow connected to the kitchen plumbing. So, this disposal has worked for a number of years, without incident. But, I'm not sure if I should buy something else, and where is the best place to buy insinkerators. Thank you for your time and for your pleasant teaching voice and method. Stay safe,
If you can afford any of the more expensive Insinkerator stainless steel models those will last longer than the Badger models an you likely won't have to even change the flange on your sink drain you just swap out the units
I forgot the plug I couldn't figure out why there is still water in my dishwasher thank you
Yes, very common failure mode
At 15:10 I was hoping you had a trick-of-the-trade to show me how to hold up the (clumsy heavy) disposer while I fiddle around trying to mate the flange connectors. Stack of towels and slide it underneath? Make some shims out of 2x4's and stack them?
I've been saying for years someone needs to invent a garbage disposal jack
Use an actual car jack to mount the disposal under the sink. Just did it - works great.
Thanks, nice job.
No problem 👍
Very good. I think I can replace the old one TY :)
Glad to help Roger
Thank you , sir. I feel like I can do it now
Awesome Larry glad to help
Do NOT forget to shut off the power to your garbage disposal FIRST!!!
Literally shocked myself yesterday cuz I forgot to. Woke me right up tho
@@MrPwnify Glad you're OK. People often focus on the plumbing part of the job while forgetting the electrical part that MUST be done first.
I want to be a hero.
The minute you solve someone's garbage disposal issue, you will be their hero
Thanks!
I’m that guy that had water at the bottom of the dishwasher after installing a new one lol…
You saved me today
Glad I could help Don! Everyone forgets this!
Do you use plumber's putty on a stainless sink or just the rubber gasket that comes with the new flange? I've always been told to just use the rubber gasket. But in honesty, if I'm replacing a Badger with another Badger I almost never replace the flange unless the old one leaks (cheating, lol).
I never replace the flange either unless I suspect a leak. I usually use plumbers putty, no black rubber gaskets, but I use the cardboard one that goes on the bottom underneath the sink.
@@jeffostroff Do you remove the plumber's putty underneath the sink before putting on cardboard gasket?
Our old one didn't have the black 90 degree elbow. The new one came with one, but I didn't install it because i figured it should be the way it was before, but now it won't drain unless it's turnee on.
Could the lack of this elbow be the problem?
Whatever you guys do, install a clean out or DON'T get rid of a pre-existing one. They make snaking/hydrojetting kitchen drains a million times easier.
Yes I never remove the cleanouts if they are there
I hear concerns about selecting a similar/same disposal when replacing an older, leaking unit and minimizing re-install hassles from different style units. Do these concerns apply when selecting a newer stainless steel model, or is it (generally), stick to a replacement disposal that's the same brand as what you had before and you should be able to: unbolt off, bolt back in?
Good question Leo, actually the kitchen drains are all standard so many different brands will fit in there once you pull one of these out you don't necessarily have to stick with the current brand although sometimes it is easier with insinkerator because you install the drain flange with the bracket and everything 1st and then you just attach the insinkerator garbage disposal on top of that bracket underneath the sink. So sometimes all we do is swap units but depending on which unit of insinkerator you buy if you buy one of the big ones I have not seen yet how the connection to the flange under the sink works to be able to tell you whether or not you can just swap out the units without removing the whole flange in the drain
@@jeffostroff , thank you, good to be mindful of before purchase. I'm still able to get by with lightly using it and keeping the plastic tub under the rusty lump of planned obsolescence. 🤨 I will replace it, thanks to your video assistance, but I hope to be able to do it when I get a spare couple hundred to get a replacement unit.😄
Yes, they can just swap out.
Hi, how long do you dry it off the putty before you can use it?
Putty can be used right away. When I use 100% silicone, I use the 30 minute water ready version
@@jeffostroff thanks
Thanks!
Glad to help Eric!
