Expert Repair & Installation For All Types of Garbage Disposal
Did you know that there are several types of garbage disposal units available on the market? Here's a brief description of the top 3 types:
The continuous-feed garbage disposals connected to an electrical switch are the most common garbage disposals found in homes. With these types of disposals, the food waste is continuously processed while disposing of it, allowing for quick disposal of multiple small batches of kitchen waste. The batch-feed garbage disposal requires you to load the waste in the disposal before turning it on. This type of waste disposal unit is safer and less noisy, making it a good option for households with children or light-duty waste. The third type is a "septic feed" that is intended for homes with septic systems. It uses bacteria that help break down the food waste before it enters the septic system.
The type of garbage disposal that is best for your home depends on the amount of waste produced and your household needs. The seasoned experts at Sam Jolley's Plumbing can help you choose the best garbage disposal for your needs and help you keep it in perfect working order.

Extend the Life of Your Garbage Disposal
With a little care, you can prevent damage and premature wear to your disposal. These are a few things you should avoid putting down the garbage disposal in order to keep it working optimally:
Grease, oil, and fat: These liquids can solidify and clog your pipes or damage your garbage disposal. Bones: Hard bones, such as chicken and beef bones, can damage the blades and motor of your garbage disposal. Stringy foods: Foods like celery, asparagus, and corn husks can wrap around the blades and cause your garbage disposal to jam. Pasta and rice: When these foods come in contact with water, they expand and turn into a gummy paste that can clog your pipes. Non-food items: It goes without saying, but anything that is not food should not be put down your garbage disposal. This includes plastic, metal, glass, and paper products.
Remember, your garbage disposal is not a second trash can and should only be used for small amounts of food scraps. When in doubt, throw it out!
And when you do run into problems, remember to contact Sam Jolley's Plumbing. We'll get you back up and running in no time!
