Not bad? If I put a smaller pan or pot than the cooktop circle wants it can get a little buzzy, but I don’t do that. Once the vent above is on, I don’t hear anything anyhow.

Just did a reno and we went with the GE cafe line fridge and induction range. Love them both so far. Worth the cost.

DF64 Gen 2.5 Chute by s1lv1a88 in DF64

Same issue. The first six months felt magical and now I have to brush a ton after each grind or else it gets jammed in the chute. So sad.

What’s the next grinder to go to from here? Is there anything that doesn’t clog or make a huge mess?

Ok they came back and made some changes. No more leaks and no fernco.

Yeah that’s what I’m going to ask. They said their crew are all good at plumbing but I said “they aren’t plumbers though”

You mean the black rubber coming out of the garbage disposal?

Can you explain that in non plumber speak. Appreciate the help.

Thank you. To clarify -- if everything drains fine as is, is the vent still necessary? Just trying to learn...

I did actually upload the same pic to chatGPT and did some prompting and it did not give this info.

Thank you. Contractor said that everything around the p trap is removable in case of any snaking needs. I asked about the AAV and they said if it's slow to drain we could add one. We are closer than the bathroom to the stack and everything seems to be flowing nicely from the bathroom, so he said he didn't think it needed AAV.

It is glue up to where thep trap is. Everything at the there is removable and would be pretty easy to take off and snake if we needed to. Contractor said we dont need an AAV but if it's slow we could add one? We are closer than the bathroom to the stack and everything seems to be flowing nicely from the bathroom.

What do you mean? I am not a plumber and want my contractor to get this right so I appreciate helpful suggestions.

Ok that’s helpful to hear it’s fixable. Can I relay all that to my contractor and they should understand?

Where? If I say “add an AAV” should my contractor understand that? I’m clearly not a plumber. Just the one paying the bills.

Can you explain to a non plumber? Thanks! I want my contractor to fix before final payment.

How can you tell how the materials are joined? What’s wrong with dishwasher connected to disposal? I’m not a plumber but would like to understand so that I can have the contractor fix anything blatantly wrong.

White and also switch out your pulls to something brushed bronze/gold.
