Frequently Asked Questions About Garbage Disposals

What is a garbage disposal, and how does it work?

A garbage disposal is a kitchen appliance installed under the sink that grinds up food waste into small particles, which can then be safely flushed down the drain with water. It typically consists of a motor, grinding chamber, and sharp blades.

What are the benefits of using a garbage disposal?

Using a garbage disposal offers several benefits, including:

• Minimizing kitchen odors by quickly disposing of food waste.
• Reducing the amount of food waste sent to landfills, contributing to environmental sustainability.
• Preventing clogs in the plumbing system by breaking down food scraps before they enter the pipes.
• Making meal cleanup more convenient and efficient.

Are all food scraps suitable for a garbage disposal?

Not all food scraps are suitable for a garbage disposal. Avoid disposing of large bones, coffee grounds, grease, fibrous foods (like celery or corn husks), and non-food items (such as plastics or metal) in the disposal. These items can damage the disposal or cause clogs in the plumbing.

How do I maintain and clean my garbage disposal?

To maintain and clean your garbage disposal, follow these tips:

• Run cold water while using the disposal to help flush food waste through the system.
• Avoid using harsh chemicals or bleach in the disposal, as they can damage the blades and seals.
• Periodically grind ice cubes and citrus peels to freshen and clean the disposal.
• Regularly check for and remove any obstructions or buildup in the disposal.

Can I install a garbage disposal myself?

While some homeowners may choose to install a garbage disposal themselves, it's generally recommended to hire a professional plumber for installation. Professional installation ensures proper connection to plumbing lines, electrical safety, and compliance with local building codes.

How long do garbage disposals typically last?

The lifespan of a garbage disposal can vary depending on usage and maintenance. On average, a well-maintained garbage disposal can last 8 to 15 years. Regular cleaning, avoiding overloading the disposal, and following manufacturer's guidelines can help prolong its lifespan.

What size garbage disposal do I need for my kitchen?

The size of the garbage disposal you need depends on factors like kitchen usage, family size, and the amount of food waste generated. Consult with one of our friendly onsite experts to choose the perfect fit for your home.

Are garbage disposals environmentally friendly?

Garbage disposals can contribute to environmental sustainability by reducing the amount of food waste sent to landfills. When food waste decomposes in landfills, it produces methane, a potent greenhouse gas. Using a garbage disposal helps divert food waste from landfills, reducing methane emissions and promoting a greener environment.
