Benefits of Using a Garbage Disposal
Some homeowners may be asking themselves if a garbage disposal is really worthwhile. Our answer is typically yes, very much so. Garbage disposals are a very simple and very affordable way in which to enjoy many great conveniences, and the installation of a garbage disposal is very straightforward. It’s also a great way to increase the value of your kitchen. There are really no cons to speak of: just a lot of pros.
- Cut down on trips to the trash bins with full bags.
- Cut down on organic waste winding up in the landfill.
- Cut down on odors emanating from trash barrels in the house.
- Make cleaning up after dinner a whole lot more convenient.
- Reduce instances of drain clogs, when used properly.
What Cannot Go Down My Garbage Disposal?
Generally speaking, your garbage disposal is not going to require much in the way of maintenance. It is not like a heater that is going to need annual maintenance. Be sure to refer to the literature that came with your particular unit in order to ascertain what type of maintenance is necessary, but typically most garbage disposals will run just fine when they are used properly. That means keeping certain materials out of them, though.
- Very hard materials, such as fruit pits or uncooked animal bones, may damage your garbage disposal. While many newer models can handle them, it is best to play it safe.
- Very fibrous foods, including celery stalks and corn husks. These can wind up wrapped around the unit and putting a lot of strain on the motor.
- FOG, or fats, oil, and grease. These materials are liquid when they are hot, and may seem like logical things to pour down the drain. However, they can congeal and form clogs as they cool.
