Usually a functioning home garbage disposal can keep your sink and pipes clean. But when problems appear, it will bring trouble for people. In this article, we will share some experiences to solve a failing household garbage disposal, and hope that it can help you when meeting these common problems.
Abnormal noises
1. The switch of home garbage disposer is usually on the side of the kitchen countertop. You can turn it on to see if the household garbage disposer is operating normally and if there is any strange sound coming out.
2. If home waste disposal only makes a strange noise but does not rotate, it is usually caused by a hard object such as animal bones jamming the wheel.
Solution:
It is best to unplug the power socket of the household waste disposal before checking, and then check to see if there are any objects such as animal bones or metal materials falling into the home waste disposer. If there is, take it out carefully.
Can't work at all
If the food waste disposer turns on the switch and there is no response and does not work, then this situation is generally caused by the solidification of grease-like garbage on the impeller.
Solution:
1. Turn on the faucet first, and find a red button at the bottom of the food garbage processor. This is the restart button. Press and observe whether the garbage disposer can work normally, if it can, then OK.
2. Cut off the power supply for garbage disposal. This step is best to unplug the power socket directly.
3. Use a hexagonal wrench to physically restart the household waste disposer. Then turn on the power again to see if the garbage disposer can work normally. This method is used to solve the problem of restarting function when there is a certain amount of sludge in the machine and the work of electric shock or blade is affected.
Can’t operate after being powered on
There is something stuck in the machine and the drain port is blocked. And there is a "buzzing" sound, and then no response.
Solution:
Turn off the power and remove the plug, and remove the obstructed objects in the crushing box. After checking whether the drain port is blocked, use an object to move the crushing disc and press the overload protector and it can be used normally.
Strong vibration or metal impact after turning on
The hammer body on the crushing disc is stuck or there is something in it.
Solution:
Turn off the power and pull out the plug, and use an object to move a pair of protruding hammers on the crushing disc to see if there are objects entangled. After cleaning, it can be flexibly rotated and can be reopened for use.
Water seepage from the upper part
The connection between the machine and the sink is inclined and the top force is uneven.
Solution:
First loosen the three top tightening screws on the top of the machine, then slightly turn the feeding port, and then tighten the three tightening screws evenly.
