Garbage Disposal Repair
Garbage disposals can face a number of different problems. Some of these are easily fixed, while others require advanced training. Here are two of the most common issues:
- Jamming – This occurs when people try to dispose of large food chunks, paper products, or grease in the disposal. In case of a jam, never stick your fingers into the disposal. This is extremely dangerous.
- Overheating – Overheating is another common issue with modern garbage disposals. If the disposal does not hum when you flip the switch, it’s probably overheated.
If you have to wonder whether you’re up to the task, don’t take an unnecessary risk. You might create the need for even costlier repairs. Instead, give EPS a call.
