This is my very last Viking Batch feed disposer , I am listing it on Ebay here really soon. I just wanted to let yall know ...
It is a Batch feed but I can convert it to continuous feed if ya want. I have had this for years and years been saving for my Sister but she got some fancy odd low slung country sink and there is barley room for plumbing. I bought her that low profile Evolution disposer. I would love for somebody in here get it this disposer. I have not seen one of these on Ebay in years ... |

KA got this design from National Disposer company in the early 70s, the design was sold off to Viking when WP bought KA along with the Hobart designed 18" trash compactor.
As far as I can tell these were still very good disposers after Viking got them, I found this same model Viking in the recycle dumpster at a local appliance dealer Brand New, the outer plastic casing was all busted up, so I just took the outer casing off a worn out KA and I still have it in one of my sinks today, Viking built these disposers for about 10 years but now source a TOL ISE built unit for the Viking Name that actually has fixed blades on the turn table.
Hi Steve, yes this disposer does have the KA Wam-Breaker electronic unjamming system.

The reason disposers were banned some places it’s just bureaucratic nonsense it’s another rule made by men who really don’t have sound engineering backgrounds.
We have one county in the Washington Baltimore area that banned disposers for years on septic tanks. My old boss built a brand new home there when they came to give the final inspection , The inspector saw the disposer and told him he had to take it out, the next week after they moved in the disposer went back in of course LOL.
Even places like New York City band disposers for years with no good reason.
It’s kind of like a condo or homeowners association and some of the silly rules they come up with.
A Disposer puts the exact same thing down a drain that your toilet does it just does it one or two days earlier.
