How To Install a Garbage Disposal

How to install a garbage disposal and connect the P-trap and drain.
Here I install a Moen EX75c disposal, which is more powerful and quieter than the average Insinkerator installed by most contractors on new sinks. This unit also comes with a preinstalled power cord so the only other thing needed is a 1.5" P-Trap kit found at Home Depot or Lowes.
P-Trap kits with only two washers and nuts usually only give you one slip washer. The other washer is a reducer. Normally, your sewer drain stub-out will have a washer and nut on it. Here mine didn't so I needed three nuts and two slip washers.
FYI: if installing a dishwasher drain line to the disposal you need to remove the disposal drain cap, seen here in blue. Some disposals have a black cap that you push into the disposal and then you pull it out from the top.
Here I'm using a switched outlet. If you don't have one, here is another option:
homedepot.sjv.io/jr31Nv

FYI, if you're installing a dishwasher remove the disposal drain plug before connecting the dishwasher drain line, seen here in blue. Some have a black cap that you push in. See How to Install a Dishwasher here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-nY4hseX56Mw.html.

And even the little note about why there is no slip washer when the two pbcs come together bc it has that built in one! Really appreciate it!

Should clamp or staple the electrical cord to the wall for the future. If that thing ever starts to leak, which they do quite frequently, your cable is going to be exposed to the water. Yeah it's got an insulator but a small clamp will take 2 extra minutes and cost 37 cents.

you should be using a proper tool made by ridgid, sold online or homedepot, is to cut tubular p material like the one being used, is a small light tool, not a power tool, it gives you a clean straight cut, beveled without burs, and risk free. the tool is like 15 bucks but it works on 1.25 or 1.5" tubular p drain, not pvc.

Not necessarily. If the drain is too long between the sink and the P-trap it won't trap water and you'll smell sewer gas. There's a code for how long it can be. If you don't smell sewer you're probably good.

I’m trying to learn the maintenance of my home and I learn from RU-vid University.

You have a trap somewhere along the line. If not you'd smell sewer coming out of the sink. If no smell then all's well. :)
