InSinkErator is debuting a suite of new LEDefense products during the Kitchen and Bath Industry Show (KBIS).
Harnessing Vyv’s LED technology, an isolated portion of the visible light spectrum is utilized to create a purplish-blue light that provides all-day protection to help keep garbage disposals clean and prevent buildup on the sink’s baffle by killing common germs, including odor-causing bacteria while also inhibiting mold growth.
“For nearly 90 years, InSinkErator has led the industry through innovation and performance,” said Joe Dillon, president at InSinkErator. “With the introduction of LEDefense, we are addressing a primary concern for homeowners—kitchen cleanliness. By integrating Vyv’s powerful antimicrobial LED technology, we are offering a solution that works around the clock to help keep the disposal fresh and clean.”
At KBIS, InSinkErator is featuring two models of the new garbage disposals and a sink flange, both utilizing the new LEDefense technology. Key features of each product include:
- Advanced Series PRO 1250 LED Garbage Disposal and Advanced Series PRO 1000 LED Garbage Disposal: InSinkErator’s disposals feature their highest horsepower motor while offering SoundSeal technology, providing users with the quietest disposal on the market. An advanced grind feature helps break up tough and fibrous food scraps like bones and corn cobs, while four-stage MultiGrind technology creates the finest grind designed to help prevent clogs and rinse residue.
- LEDefense Sink Flange with Mounting Components: Compatible with all InSinkErator continuous feed disposals, the LEDefense sink flange helps to prevent buildup on the bottom of the baffle with the usage of Vyv’s UV-free LED light. Fitting all standard sinks ¾-inch thick or less, the sink flange is powered around the clock thanks to a USB-C power adapter.
