TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL MANUFACTURER OR ITS
AUTHORIZED SERVICE REPRESENTATIVES BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL,

RESULTING FROM NONPERFORMANCE, USE, MISUSE OR INABILITY TO USE THE

DAMAGES CAUSED BY DELAY IN PERFORMANCE AND IN NO EVENT, REGARDLESS OF

Food waste disposers provide an environmentally responsible alternative to transporting food waste to landfills.
And they can help reduce greenhouse gas emissions. At capable wastewater treatment plants, food waste can
be converted to biosolids and used as fertilizer. Capable plants can also recycle food waste into renewable energy.
