The kitchen faucet is a tremendous asset to your home and kitchen plumbing system. Because it’s necessary for cooking and cleaning, your kitchen sink needs to work properly.

Garbage disposals are a great way to reduce waste, keep a clean kitchen, and minimize clean-up after supper. Like most great things, you must care for it properly.

Despite its name, you should avoid putting any garbage into the disposal. Other substances that should be avoided include:

• Vegetables including celery, asparagus, onion, or potato skins.
• Hard foods that the disposal might not be able to grind, like popcorn kernels or meat bones.
• FOG (fats, oils, and grease), which is more of a threat to your drains than your disposal, but should still be avoided.
• Foods that can expand with water, like rice, pasta, and coffee grounds.

Remember that no matter how well you care for your garbage disposal, it may eventually stop working due to natural wear and tear. Reach out to our plumbing experts if you notice any of the following:

• Metal-On-Metal Grinding: Garbage disposals can begin to wear out over time, or mechanical parts can loosen. This can lead to a loud and alarming grinding sound that, if left alone, will destroy the unit itself.
• Fails to Grind Waste Effectively: Most commonly, this will be an issue with the blades, meaning they are either dulled, bent, or misaligned. Our experts can diagnose this problem and fix it promptly.
• Leaks: Plumbing leaks can be one of the most damaging issues a homeowner encounters. If your disposal is leaking, call us immediately. Our leak detection and repair experts can handle the issue as quickly as accuracy allows.
• Jams: Jamming can happen when the wrong types of food are placed in the disposal or if the blades are bent to prevent functioning.
• Doesn’t Engage When Switched On: Though they’re often lumped in with most plumbing appliances, disposals still use electricity. This means it’s possible to encounter issues like loose connections or wire damage, which will require professional service.

If you’re experiencing any of these issues with your garbage disposal, contact AccuTemp to perform a thorough inspection and diagnosis.
