FAQ

We are currently in the process of producing and shipping several thousand units to our pre-order customers. After this run is done we will open orders up to the public-- likely in Q2 2023. Make sure you're subscribed to our newsletter to be the first to know!

How do I install it?

Sepura uses the exact same connections as a garbage disposal. However, because Sepura requires much less power, a standard wall plug is all you need to power Sepura.

How often do I need to empty it?

Depending on use Sepura will need to emptied every two to four weeks on average.

Can I use bags in the bin?

Yes. The collection center is designed to accept standard biodegradable and compostable liners that are readily available, and Sepura will have custom bags available as well. Alternatively, you can go linerless as Sepura's bin is stick-free.

Do you grind up the food scraps?

No, unlike a garbage disposal, Sepura simply seperates solids from liquids as opposed to grinding it up. This is why Sepura is allowed everywhere-- because no food makes it down the drain into your pipes.

How often do I need to clean it?

Sepura is self-cleaning so you will never need to clean the seperation component.

Can I attach my dishwasher overflow to Sepura?

Sepura comes with an optional dishwasher drain adapter that allows you to connect your dishwasher to.
