home and garden home appliancesCan you have a garbage disposal with a single bowl sink?
Moreover, can you hook a garbage disposal up to a single bowl sink?
Absolutely, lots of homes have a disposal in a single basin sink. There's a bit of plumbing to do and you should make sure you have enough room under the sink and the pipes line up. You'll also need to have an electrical supply under the sink, which is usually controlled by a wall switch to turn the disposal on.
Subsequently, one may also ask, can you have a garbage disposal with a farmhouse sink?
Nearly all farmhouse sinks, even when installed with an undermount setup, can have a garbage disposal attached to them. This is because the portion of a garbage disposal that actually comes into contact with the sink, the flange, is quite small.
Using a single bowl sink in a small kitchen maximizes counter space, providing more prep room and counter storage than with a larger sink. Therefore, single bowl sinks are more useful for things like washing large pots or babies, while a double bowl sink has more options for how to use the sink.
