Problem: Garbage disposal hums but won't operate properly!
Solution: Press the reset button located on the bottom of the disposal. If this doesn't work, turn off the power switch un-plug the power cord and shine a light into the drain. Look for a foreign object such as a coin, plastic bread tie or staple. Remove the item with pliers or a grasping tool. It is dangerous to put your hand inside a disposal. 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. We offer a full range of plumbing services.

Garbage Disposal: What To Look For


There is no argument over the convenience of having a garbage disposal in your kitchen. But with such a wide variety of models available in the market, one can’t help but be baffled when it comes to choosing a single one of them. There surely is a myriad of factors and features which are to be taken into consideration before choosing a garbage disposal. Let’s accentuate a few of such factors in order to let you make an informed decision.

Check With The Rules And Regulations:

​If you are only replacing one of the old garbage disposal that you had in your kitchen, it may be irrelevant. However, if you are planning on installing a new one, it would be a commendable idea to take a good look at the rules and regulations of your area to make sure it’s not against the law in your locality. Since garbage disposal puts an additional load on the sewer lines, there are a number of localities in which it is prohibited to have a garbage disposal in your kitchen.

Check With The Plumber:

Remember that all of the plumbing and sewer systems are not capable of being compatible with the garbage disposal in your kitchen. This is what puts an emphasize on the importance of checking with your plumber to see if the plumbing and the sewer system installed in your house currently are compatible with one of the modern garbage disposals. There must also be an electrical outlet right under your kitchen’s sink which will allow you to plug in the garbage disposal.

​Choose The Motor Size:

Choosing the motor size with your garbage disposal primarily depends on the number of people who will be using it. While most of the modern garbage disposals have a motor size of 1/3 horsepower, such are only suitable if there’s only a single person inhabiting the apartment. If it is for the entire family, it will certainly be used more, and hence why, a requirement of a larger motor size must be fulfilled. Choosing a model with a motor size of ½ horsepower is going to be a commendable option under such circumstances.

Opt For Stainless Steel:
It should go without saying that choosing a garbage disposal with blades made up of stainless steel is going to be a far better option since it’ll offer greater durability and longevity and the food will be more finely chopped which will avoid you to the hassle of having clogged pipes. Although, opting for stainless steel is certainly going to be a relatively costlier option.

​Compatibility With Dishwasher:

If you already have one of that modern kitchen equipment including a dishwasher, it would be a commendable idea to choose a garbage disposal that is compatible with your dishwasher. It is usually a tube that connects both the equipment and helps a great deal since the food is directly thrown into the garbage disposal that chops it off finely before rinsing it away.

​Additional Features:


​While the above mentioned is most of what you should look for while choosing a garbage disposal, a few of the additional features which will come in handy include the following:
​
  • Minimum noise
  • Corrosion protection
  • Manual reset button
  • Anti-splash technology


​Now that you are aware of the prominent features that you must look for in a garbage disposal, you can now conveniently choose a model which will cater to all of your requirements without pushing you off the edge of your budget either. With the tips in mind, you can now shop for a garbage disposal and rest assured, you are not going to end up wasting your money on a worthless product.
