What are the different types of garbage disposals?
There are two main types: continuous-feed and batch-feed disposals. Continuous-feed models operate as long as they are switched on, while batch-feed disposals only work when a stopper is inserted, adding an extra layer of safety and making them ideal for homes with children
What can and cannot go into a garbage disposal?
Soft food scraps, such as vegetable peels, can generally go into a disposal, but avoid hard items like bones, fibrous foods (e.g., celery), grease, or coffee grounds, as these can cause clogs or damage the disposal. Each disposal model may have specific guidelines for what it can handle
How do I maintain my garbage disposal?
Regular maintenance includes running cold water while using the disposal, grinding ice cubes to sharpen blades, and occasionally adding citrus peels to keep it fresh. Avoid harsh chemicals, as they can damage components
Why is my garbage disposal leaking?
Leaks can result from worn-out seals, loose connections, or cracks in the unit itself. Common areas for leaks include the sink flange, dishwasher connection, and discharge drain pipe, and may require repairs or replacement parts
How do I fix a jammed garbage disposal?
To clear a jam, first turn off the disposal, then use an Allen wrench (usually provided) to manually turn the motor shaft from underneath. Avoid using hands or utensils inside the disposal, and consult a professional if the problem persists
How long should a garbage disposal last?
With proper maintenance, a garbage disposal can last 8-15 years. Lifespan depends on usage frequency, maintenance, and whether it’s appropriately sized for your needs
Can I install a garbage disposal myself?
Some models are designed for DIY installation, but it requires basic plumbing and electrical knowledge. If unsure, hiring a professional is recommended to ensure safe, leak-free installation
