Common Garbage Disposal Problems

Here are a few garbage disposal troubles we frequently handle:

• Garbage disposal won’t start.
• Disposal makes noise but isn’t working correctly.
• Disposal is leaking.
• Disposal stinks and the odor won’t diffuse.
• Water won’t drain or is draining gradually through the disposal.

You should always run cold water into the garbage disposal while eliminating foods. Cold water solidifies oils that have been poured in. This makes it simpler for the system to shred them.

Garbage disposals also must have regular use to avoid rust.

Fixing a Leaky Garbage Disposal

A leaky garbage disposal can be fixed if you can find the part that's leading to the problem.

If you find a fatigued or leaky part, get a new one. Don’t use plumber’s putty to fill cracks.

Disposals may leak over time due to:

• Deterioration on the seals
• Detatched pipes
• Flanges or gaskets that have dried out and cracked
• Breaks in the garbage disposal body

Some disposals are hooked up to the dishwasher, which allows for self-cleaning. This location often experiences leaks as well.

These malfunctions can be fixed except for cracks in the body or interior lining of the disposal. If this is your problem, you will need to get a new garbage disposal.

It can take a DIYer an entire afternoon to locate and complete simple repairs, so factor that into the cost when deciding to handle the problem without professional help.

Having an Expert technician like one from Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning diagnose and repair the problem can help catch other components that may be about to go out. That way, you won’t find yourself fixing the same disposal two weeks later.
