Erie’s Top Garbage Disposal Repair Team

Although the garbage disposal is a small unit as it relates to the rest of your home, it plays a big role in making sure your kitchen is easy to use and convenient. Especially for large families and homeowners who cook frequently, and around the holidays, it’s a big help with making sure food waste is routed out of your home properly. For homeowners in Erie, CO and surrounding communities, it’s typical not to think much about your garbage disposal when it’s working properly.

Keeping Your Garbage Disposal in Good Shape

Common causes of clogged garbage disposals include (don’t put these down the disposal):

• Coffee grounds
• Onion skins
• Potato peels

• Eggshells
• Cooking oils, grease, and fats

• Rice, oats, and bread
• Pasta

A garbage disposal that is not operated properly eventually won’t be able to shred food scraps effectively, which can lead to premature failure and maybe even cause issues with your drain piping. Read the owner’s manual carefully as a refresher and to see if your unit has other specific maintenance requirements. NOTE: Safety first, always! A properly cared for unit should work for at least 8 to 15 years.

Garbage Disposal Installation in Erie

If issues with an older garbage disposal persist, it might be time to consider replacing the unit. Due to the nature of these units, in many cases, replacement ends up making more sense than attempting repairs that could total nearly the amount of getting a new one installed. After a thorough inspection and clear diagnosis, your trusted Save Home Heat Company plumber will advise you on the best solution for your family’s needs.

While modern homes all come with a standard continuous-feed garbage disposal with basic features, when it comes time to replace your disposal, there are a variety of options you may want to consider which offer enhanced performance.

Garbage disposal optional features include:

• Plastic, steel, or stainless steel grinding chambers
• Different volume grinding chambers
• ⅓ to 1 horsepower motor ratings
• Noise reduction features

• Multiple grinding stages for different types of waste
• Auto-reverse for releasing jams
• Septic-assist model disposals
