Possible Causes

Unbalanced load of food waste, Loose mounting ring, Misaligned discharge piping stressing unit, Worn or missing anti-vibration mounting gasket

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off the disposal before adjusting anything.

  • Run with no load: Turn the unit on with only water running. If vibration is minimal with no food, the issue may be overloading or uneven feeding.
  • Check mounting: Tighten the Reginox mounting ring screws and confirm the unit is fully locked into the sink flange.
  • Inspect rubber gasket: Look at the rubber mounting gasket between the sink flange and disposal. If it is deteriorated or missing, replace it with a Reginox-compatible gasket.
  • Align piping: Ensure the discharge pipe is not forcing the disposal to one side. Adjust pipe length or add support brackets.
