Q: Is it worth it to repair a garbage disposal?

• <div><p>Whether you choose to repair your garbage disposal will depend on the problem. For minor issues like a bad seal, you can fix the unit for less than $10. If the motor unit is broken, which can easily cost $150, you may want to consider replacing the entire disposal if it&rsquo;s getting on in years. </p></div>

Q: Why does my garbage disposal have power but won’t spin?

• <div><p>If your garbage disposal powers up and you can hear it hum, but the arms inside aren&rsquo;t moving, the problem might be a stubborn clog, a build-up of grease, or a jam of the impeller plate. To troubleshoot these, ensure your unit is off and disconnected from its power source before checking inside the drain or attempting to manually rotate the impeller arms or plate from the underside of the unit. A hex wrench can help.</p></div>

Q: What is the main problem that happens to garbage disposals?

• <div><p>The main issue with garbage disposals is clogging. This can mean a clogging of the pipes that expel the food along with water, or a clogging of the mechanical parts themselves. The problem lies in the solution because you can&rsquo;t easily see clogs if they&rsquo;re inside the system, and reaching in to dislodge stuck items is a risky proposal. Call a pro and ask what they would do, but if you can&rsquo;t see the clog easily, and running the unit won&rsquo;t free it, you need to let a professional handle the fix. </p></div>

Q: Does ice clean a garbage disposal?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s one thing that helps, alongside vinegar and baking soda. Ice acts as an exfoliant, helping to lift off any bits of food stuck on the disposal blades.</p></div>

Q: Will my garbage disposal impact my septic tank?

• <div><p>Your garbage disposal will only affect the health of your septic tank if you&rsquo;re using it too frequently, or filling it with organic waste that doesn&rsquo;t fully break down. If the tank fills up with too many solids, the bacteria won&rsquo;t have enough time to consume it before more is added, which can lead to an overflow in the drain field. Your tank will need to be pumped more frequently with excessive or improper garbage disposal use. </p></div>
