My daughter has refinished her kitchen cabinets in a small kitchen in her two bedroom condo in New Jersey. She is replacing the countertops with a quartz product. The current sink is in the corner facing an interior wall and she wants to replace it with an undermount sink in that same corner. She does not think there will be enough room to install a garbage disposal (she currently has one with the old sink). Can you install a garbage disposal in this situation?
Any help would be appreciated.
Are we concerned about the distance between the bottom of the sink and the bottom of the cabinet?
I have installed a lot of disposals on under-mount sinks and I have found the the Badger company has a 1/3 hp unit that is quite short. It may seem a bit small but we need to remember that disposals are not made to chop wood.......1/3 is plenty strong for a person who uses their head when shoving food sown it. Their 1/2 hp unit might also work.
They are available at Lowes and Home Depot for around $60.
Hope this helps
