Hello Folks,
About 14 years ago, I did install a disposal under a double-sink that lacked a disposal. Looking back, under the kitchen-sink, it likely is not compliant with code. Below is a pic:
The p-trap height seems to be ok. The 90d elbow used to connect the disposal discharge port to the pipe contraption probably is not ok. It has worked well for all those years though…
Most install seems to use a straight pipe out of the disposal discharge port. But, back then, it was easier to use what I had at hand; also, was also trying to optimize the useful storage space under the kitchen cabinet. The sharp sweep (short radius) of the 90d elbow connecting the disposal to the vertical pipe does not favor easy flow. Also, I am not sure if the cap is acceptable in this situation.
Any input on how to rectify that would be appreciated.
