How to install "Air wall switch" for "Garbage Dispossal" ?

Many times you like install an air switch for garbage disposal.   Not all the time you have extra hole in the sink-or its not easy to drill new hole.
Simply take a single gang remodel electrical  box.  Cut an opening where its close to faucet handle (figure the way the spout over the disposal-so the switch easy to reach).  Make a hole in the wall below-inside the lower cabinet.  All you need to fish the tube and connected, follow the air switch instruction.

 1. Cut opening for the remodel electrical box (in the picture the tube already insert from the cabinet bellow-the picture took after the tube) .








2. Remodel box before and after - while the air tube (black) switch already inside the box.









 3. Use a cover plate with pre-cut hole- or drill yourself.
If you drill yourself -using only blank cover plate from soft flexible plastic. The hard plastic  cover plat -will brake.






 4. Insert the switch .

















5. Connect the tube to switch.










 6. Screw the cover plat to switch box- and its ready to use .

























 
7.  For a better finish look- I use a  TV cable cover plate with small hole- secure with screws to cabinet wall.  Plug the electrical cord -following the air switch instruction.
