Garbage Disposal Plumbing Earl IL

The garbage disposal might be one of the most misused home appliances in any home. Few people recognize that garbage disposals are only developed to handle light food residue that is rinsed from plates and cooking utensils before they go into the dishwasher. That's why many of Midwest Plumbers plumbing service calls include waste disposal unit repair work.

Large quantities of food and debris going into disposers can overwhelm them and obstruct the kitchen sink drain. Couple of things are more discouraging than a kitchen sink that will not drain, but Midwest Plumbers's plumbers are professionals at kitchen drain cleaning. We'll also repair or change your broken waste disposal unit and get your sink back to regular in no time.

Aiming to fix your garbage disposal yourself? If your waste disposal unit hums but will not operate effectively, there may be a simple fix. Follow these steps:

Press the reset button located on the bottom of the disposer. If this doesn't work, switch off the power switch and shine a flashlight into the drain.
Look for a foreign item such as a coin, plastic bread tie or staple.
Remove the item with pliers or a grasping tool. It threatens to put your hand inside a garbage disposal.
Look to see if your disposer has a hex key jam clearing tool under the sink or taped to the disposer.
Look for a slot at the bottom of the disposer where the tool can be inserted and reversed and forth to clear the jam.
