Hi all,
I have a dual basin Kohler sink and the counter workspace is on the side w/o disposer. That plus the fact that the main drain is perfectly horizontal for a bout 3' means that it stops up regularly. I have cleared it so many times I can do it in about 10 mins but it's still a royal pain.
Obviously Kohler intended the disposer be on the right side (small basin) since the hole for the dishwasher air gap is on that side but nothing is preventing me from putting the disposer on the left side?
Just wanted to be sure before I take it apart. The dishwasher air gap to disposer drain will be a long run but I don't see that this will be a problem.
I may be able to improve the slope on the main drain slightly but I'm thinking of adding a cleanout adapter. I'll still have to catch the water in a pan but at least I won't have to take apart the trap.
Thanks
