GARBAGE DISPOSALS

---

More often than not, if your home is equipped with a garbage disposal, you have probably had trouble with it once or twice. Garbage disposals are essentially to be used for left over food waste, but seem to be used too often for the destruction of entire left over food portions, which is normally the result of children thinking that the disposal is meant to make unwanted food disappear. It’s important to be mindful of the food waste that is fed to your garbage disposal. Large portions, bones, and sinewy food particles can wreak havoc on your disposal’s mechanics and the pipes and plumbing that connects it to your kitchen. Although most modern day disposals are built with a reset button, it is often not enough to correct the issues caused by a disposal being misused. For you and your family’s safety its best to allow a trained master plumber to fix and repair any broken or jammed garbage disposals, or install a new one.

Garbage disposals have now become indispensable components of the kitchen of every household. This is the case, because they help to easily dispose of kitchen and food waste. The garbage disposal unit contains a grinder operated through an insulated electric motor, which breaks down waste into small pieces that can flow through the drain pipes. Our licensed plumbing technicians are trained to properly install the garbage disposals.

There are limitations on what can be dumped in the kitchen sink. With continuous use, garbage disposals tend to clog over time. Some metallic components of the garbage disposal like the turntable, chamber, lug and shredding ring are in constant contact with water and waste material. These can corrode easily if they are not made of rust resistant material like stainless steel.
