A Few Helpful Garburator Maintenance Tips

Here are a few things you can do to ensure your garburator remains functioning properly for as long as possible:

 Keep your garburator clean by pouring dish soap in and letting it run for a few minutes after you’ve washed your dishes in the sink. Don’t ever use a harsh chemical to clean your sink/garburator. This can cause damages to the blades and/or pipes.

 Try to remember to use it regularly, as this prevents rust and corrosion.

 Use cold water when grinding foods, as cold water helps to solidify greases and oils for easier disposal.

 Try to cut larger pieces of food into smaller bits and put them down the garburator one piece at a time to prevent clogs.

 Don’t ever try to grind anything that’s glass, plastic, metal, paper or combustible. In addition, it’s not recommended that you grind cigarette butts or coffee grounds.

 Try not to grind expandable foods such as pasta or rice – they can be the cause of many clogs.

 Don’t grind large animal bones or anything with fibrous materials, including husks, celery stalks, onion skins, etc.
