1/2-Horsepower Continuous-Feed Food-Waste Disposal
Helps Take Care of the Dirty Work
Send food waste down the drain once and for all with this extra-large-capacity GFC530V garbage disposal by GE. The disposal’s powerful grinding action reduces food waste to small particles, making the unit safe for any properly sized septic system.
Even more, the food-waste disposal features sound-reduction technology that helps ensure quiet operation, making it possible to maintain the cheerful, festive mood of a successful dinner party even during cleanup. Hardworking, quiet, and easy to install–the GE disposal makes a useful addition to any busy kitchen.
Convenient Design
Thoughtfully constructed, the food-waste disposal system also provides a two-level precutter, an on/off wall-switch with a sink stopper, a manual-reset overload protector, and a splashguard, as well as stainless-steel, jam-resistant, dual swivel impellers. Other highlights include cold-rolled carbon-steel armature shaft material, a stainless-steel sink flange, and a stainless-steel turntable.
Easy-to-Use Continuous Feed
To operate, simply remove the sink stopper, turn on a medium flow of cold water, flip the switch to ON, and scrape in the food waste. The continuous-feed disposal takes care of the rest. Before turning the disposal off, let the water and the disposal run for about 25 seconds after the shredding and grinding stops to ensure all waste is thoroughly flushed through the trap and drain.
The food-waste disposal measures 7.75 inches in diameter by 13.44 inches high. Detailed installation instructions come included.

Great Disposal that is Backwards Compatible This was a drop in replacement for my (now obsolete) older model GFC530F. The fact that this is form/fit/function interchangeable with the older model was nice because I could reuse the existing mounting components that attach the disposal to the sink and all my plumbing lined up perfectly. Total install time including wiring took less than a half hour since everything was pretty much identical to my old unit. I got about 8 years of service out of my old one and it took plenty of abuse. So far…
pleasantly surprised I was kinda leary about buying a garbage disposal online but worked out great and better than the old enormous dinosaur it’s replacing. Wasn’t too happy they did not supply a strain relief for the wire and the wiring was the slow part becasue of the small space to deal with. Escpecially the ground wire. It all worked out great espeically when the discharge lined up almost perfectly with my existing pipe. These things aren’t that difficult to install especially when replacing. If one didn’t…
