Proper Use and Maintenance Tips for Garbage Disposal
Proper use and maintenance can prevent common issues with your garbage disposal. Taking the time to follow some simple guidelines can greatly extend the life and efficiency of your unit. Here are some tips:
Items to Avoid in Your Garbage Disposal
To prevent clogs and damage, avoid putting fibrous foods such as celery, artichokes, or corn husks down your garbage disposal as they can tangle and jam the blades. Bones and other hard materials can damage the blades and motor. Grease, oils, and fats should also be kept out of the disposal as they can solidify and cause blockages. Non-food items, like plastic, metal, or glass, are a definite no-go as they can cause severe damage to your disposal and plumbing system.
Cleaning and Odor Prevention
Regularly clean your garbage disposal with a mild cleaner or a vinegar solution to prevent buildup and eliminate odors. For a deeper clean, consider using a combination of baking soda and vinegar, allowing it to sit for a few minutes before rinsing with hot water. Additionally, running citrus peels, such as lemon or orange peels, through the disposal can help freshen the smell and provide a natural cleaning action. Remember to use cold water while operating the disposal to help solidify any grease or fat, making it easier for the system to chop and flush it away.
