Why Regular Garbage Disposal Maintenance Matters
Brand new garbage disposals work faster and more efficiently than older models, saving you time and utility costs in the long run. However, it’s important to properly maintain your disposal. Run it each day to keep it clear of debris, always run water before and after grinding, and don’t push too much waste down the disposal at one time.
And finally, here’s some advice from TMS on what not to put in your garbage disposal so that it lasts much longer:
- Rice and pasta: No matter how many times you ground it up, these foods absorb water like crazy and expand.
- Grease: Oil solidifies and will build up in your pipes; this will clog your drain up real fast.
- Egg shells: These clog up your drain and the membrane of the egg can actually wreak havoc on the blades.
- Coffee grounds: They initially go down fine, but over time the little bits of sediment add up and cause problems.
- Vegetable peels: Anything stringy or tough, like potato, celery, and asparagus peels, is dangerous.
- Animal bones: This may seem obvious, but that doesn’t stop people from trying. No matter how good your garbage disposal is, it won’t be strong enough to break down bones.
- Pits and seeds: Avoid putting in big pits and seeds, like avocado pits, peach pits, and cherry pits.
