What's that ISE control box thingy? Very nice install.

Air switch

There’s tile on the backsplash and there was an empty hole in the sink for the button

As my grandmother used to say, "Well I'll be jiggered!" I had no idea that was an option. Thanks 'Hack!

Too late for a pic of the air switch in the sink? This is something I need to do to free up a light switch for undercabinet lighting.

Yeah, I left the house an hour ago.

I’ll post a link to it. It just installs into a normal faucet hole in the sink or countertop.

The room repair is finally done!

So, the trap primer-- does it inject water into the trap so it won't dry out?

I'm not familiar with the air switch. What does it do?

I'm no electrician, but shouldn't the outlet to the left be GFCI just in case there's a leak?

I need to add some undercabinet lighting in my kitchen. Main kitchen light went out- I think I need to replace the light switch or check the wires for damage. I can try replacing the bulb again (it is very dim but not off).

Havasu, that looks great!

The trap primer allows a little bit of the lavatory drain water to flow to a floor drain trap.

The air switch is a push button switch that delivers air to an air activated electrical switch. This turns the disposal on/off

It may be protected some way upstream or in the panel. I don’t ask, the homeowner had that installed by a licensed electrician specifically for a garbage disposal.

Pics of air switch (disposal) in our island sink. No other location for a traditional switch...

That square sink basket is a service plumbers nightmare

I'm NOT even going to show you the underneath of that prep-sink!

It's a good looking set up!

$25 in parts, 10 minutes of work, and you probably walked away with more than I bring home in social security! Not knocking you, but knocking the folks who don't know which end of a screwdriver to grab.

$187.50

$187.50

But I drove a $40k van over there at 13 miles to the $5 a gallon gas.

Insured the job for a few million.

Give a one year or more warranty.

$20 my cost in parts.

Plus you get to see me and talk to me while I’m there. Added value right there…….

I hear you. As said before, I don't blame you at all. I just wish schools would teach common, needed stuff before teaching how to wear those pink hats, and how to defund the police!
