Professional Garbage Disposal Replacement in Littleton
You might be wondering if it’s even possible for your garbage disposal to get clogged. Yes, yes it is. While your garbage disposal may be there to prevent clogs, it’s not indispensable and they don’t last forever. An old garbage disposal may start stinking even after being thoroughly cleaned. Over time food builds up in the small crevices and can cause bad odors. Another issue that may eventually come up is dull grinder blades that prevent it from doing its job. The headache of clogs can be avoided by knowing what not to put down your garbage disposal. In the event that you do get a clog, our team is here to help!
Things you should never put down your garbage disposal:
- Grease and Fat of any kind but especially those that solidify
- Plastic or paper food wrappers
- Onion skins
- Celery
- Pasta
- Rice
If you’re unsure about what you’re putting down your garbage disposal, ask yourself if your teeth could chew it. If it’s a no for your teeth, it’s a no for the garbage disposal. Things like avocado and mango pits are impossible for a garbage disposal to chew up. Watch out for things that expand when wet like pasta and rice. Avoid fat that solidifies when cooled. If it’s old, smoking when turned on, or hums without grinding, you may need garbage disposal repair and possibly need to replace it altogether.
