Common Garbage Disposal Issues
Signs of a Malfunctioning Garbage Disposal
Recognizing the signs of garbage disposal problems early can save you from more complicated repairs down the line. Here are some typical issues you might encounter:
Jammed Unit: Commonly caused by food waste like fruit pits or coffee grounds getting stuck in the disposal.
Loud Noises: Unusual sounds may indicate something is obstructing the disposal blades or an internal mechanism is loose.
Clogged Drain: Occurs when materials that shouldn’t be processed by the disposal accumulate and block the drain hole.
Electrical Issues: If your disposal doesn’t turn on, the problem could be related to the service panel or built-in circuit breaker.
Troubleshooting Tips
Before calling a professional, you can check a few things:
Reset the Unit: Most disposals have a reset button on the bottom; try pressing this to see if it resolves the issue.
Clear Obstructions: Always ensure the power is off, then check for visible obstructions that can be safely removed.
