Key Items to Keep Out of Your Garbage Disposal
To avoid plumbing mishaps and keep your water running smoothly during the summer heat, here are some crucial items to keep out of your garbage disposal:
- Grease and Oils: These substances can solidify within your pipes, leading to difficult blockages.
- Coffee Grounds: Although they seem harmless, coffee grounds can accumulate and cause persistent clogs.
- Eggshells: Contrary to popular belief, eggshells can adhere to the disposal’s mechanisms, creating odors and potential jams.
- Starchy Foods: Foods like pasta, rice, and bread can expand when they absorb water, potentially clogging your disposal.
- Fibrous Vegetables: Items such as celery or corn husks can wrap around disposal blades and may lead to motor burnout.
- Hard Items: Bones and fruit pits can be too tough for disposal blades, risking damage to the unit.
