Garbage Disposals

Garbage Disposals may be one of the most misused appliances in any home. Few people realize that garbage disposals are only designed to handle light food residue that is rinsed from plates and cooking utensils before they go into the dishwasher. 

Large quantities of food and debris should never go into disposals. They can be overwhelmed and clog the kitchen sink drain. This can be very frustrating, but our service technician can repair or replace broken disposals and get your sink back to normal in no time. 

Problem:

Garbage disposal makes noise, but won't operate properly. 

Solution:

Press the reset button located on the bottom of the disposer. If this doesn't work, turn off the power switch and shine a flashlight into the drain. Look for any foreign objects that should not be in the disposal, such as plastic. Remove the item with pliers or a grasping tool. It is dangerous to put your hand inside a disposal. If you cannot clear the jam, your disposal may have a hex key jam clearing tool. Look for it under the sink or taped to the disposal. Check for a slot at the bottom of the disposal where the tool can be inserted and turned back and forth to clear the jam.
