Kraus Chrome Garbage Disposal Air Switch Kit, KWDA-100CH

The KRAUS Garbage Disposal Air Switch Kit offers a sleek and functional alternative to traditional wall-mount toggle switches, allowing users to activate their garbage disposal with the push of a button while creating a coordinated look with their kitchen faucet. Designed for easy installation, the air switch mounts to the countertop or sink deck, simplifying the process and making the disposal simple to use.

With a universal design compatible with most garbage disposals, the air switch provides a worry-free alternative to an electrical switch. The streamlined button creates a clean look and is available in a range of wear-resistant finishes, including Spot-Free Stainless Steel, to match the user's kitchen faucet. The kit includes everything needed for a DIY installation, including the air switch button, PVC air tubing, power cord, and AC adapter.

The air switch dimensions measure 2 7/8" L x 1 1/4" D, while the AC adapter dimensions are 5 1/2" H x 2 7/8" W x 1 7/8" D. The power cable length is 40", and the air tube length is 60", providing flexibility during installation.

This universal garbage disposal air switch is compatible with all major brands on the market, including KRAUS Garbage Disposals. The easy installation process allows the air switch with threaded housing and ABS nut to be installed in any type of countertop up to 2" thick or top-mounted sink deck using a standard 1 1/4" faucet hole.

The KRAUS Garbage Disposal Air Switch Kit offers worry-free operation, ensuring there is no live electricity at the countertop level. The durable construction, featuring a stainless steel button and ABS components, helps ensure reliable long-lasting operation. The sleek button design creates a clean, integrated look on the countertop or sink deck, and the wear-resistant finish resists corrosion and is easy to keep clean without the use of abrasive chemicals.

The air switch operates by sending a pulse of air through the PVC tubing to flip a switch in the AC converter, providing continuous operation. With a push of the button, the garbage disposal will stay on until the button is pressed again. This feature makes the air switch ideal for kitchen islands where it may not be possible to place a traditional wall outlet to power the garbage disposal.

The installation-ready kit includes all the necessary components, including the air switch button, PVC tubing, power cord, and AC adapter control box. The extra-long 60" PVC air tube can be cut to length during installation for flexibility in where the air switch is placed, and the pre-attached 40" power cord simplifies the installation process, eliminating the need for hardwiring.

For optimal performance, KRAUS recommends using the KRAUS Continuous Feed Garbage Disposal model # KWD100-100MBL (sold separately) with the Garbage Disposal Air Switch Kit.
