In theory, your garbage disposal is a simple device; a motor that drives rotating impellers that, in turn, grind up food waste and organic matter so that it can be flushed down the sink drain. However, even it is seems simple, the system is a bit complex and there are may things that can wrong with it. When our Oklahoma City Plumbers work with you, we can even help determine if your system needs repairs or replacement. Keep in mind, if your repair costs will end up being greater than 50% of the current value of your system, it makes more sense to replace, in most cases.

Of course to get prolonged life from your system, there are some tips you can follow:
- It should go without saying but you should never place your hand inside the disposal; even if it is not turned on this is not a risk worth taking.
- Do not put hard objects in the disposal, such as plastic or metal. Follow the guidelines for your individual system; some are capable of handling materials like gristle and others are not.
- Bones, metal and anything stringy does not belong in the disposal.
- Do not use chemical drain cleaners in the disposal for cleaning
- Use a strong flow of cold water to help with grinding waste.
- Cold will help harden grease in order to help prevent it from clogging your drain lines or passing into the sewer.
- Continue to let the water flow for a minute after you have finished grinding.
