1. House Garbage disposals are 120 volt
2. House Garbage disposals are NOT a PUMP. They just chew up material.
Not true, I have a garbage disposal that I use to grind up my black waste and it pushed the waste thru a 1 inch hose 45 feet away into my cleanout at home, works every time..
Post the brand and model of the HOUSE GARBAGE DISPOSAL. I have replaced at least 4 in my lifetime and NONE have a pump in them. Besides, WHY use a House Disposal?????? What is the matter with the standard 12 VOLT RV Macerator?????
If you go to the previously posted link, you'll find that the fellow used an old Insinkerator disposal he already had, plus some added hardware so he could pump to his septic tank at home. It didn't cost him anywhere near what a commercial 12-volt RV macerator pump costs. Even buying a similar new disposal would be cheaper than a commercial pump setup. It's really a pretty simple conversion...
