With the improvement of living standards and environmental protection awareness, many families have installed good garbage disposals, which are convenient enough and have great benefits for food hygiene and health. This is a good way to improve the quality of life, but best food waste disposers sometimes cause blockage in use. What if your garbage disposal is blocked?
Most of the pipe blockage of the reliable garbage disposal is due to the fact that the garbage disposal has not completely disposed of the plant fibers in the food residue, and a large number of long fibers cause the pipe blockage. At this time, you need to take off the rubber splash cover on the electronic garbage disposal, cut off the power supply or unplug it, and then clean the garbage in the grinding cavity with chopsticks. If there is accumulated water in the grinding cavity, it needs to be cleaned after leaking in the next day. After the grinding cavity is cleaned, unscrew the side outlet pipe screws with needle-nose pliers. The side outlet pipes of some brands of garbage disposals are threaded and can be unscrewed. Then use screws or chopsticks to clean the fibers under the grinding chamber of food waste disposals. The fibers in the pipes should also be cleaned, and some fibers will be blocked at elbows, so it is more convenient to take off the elbows and clean them.
If the pipe is not blocked by fiber, it may also be scaling caused by the pipe's own trend. This situation is generally on the upper side of the horizontal plane of a certain elbow. If scaling occurs at the elbow of a hard pipe, you can buy some pipe dredging agent in the store and use it according to the instructions, which will soon disintegrate the dirt.
If you want to clean the kitchen sink garbage disposal simply by yourself, first turn off the breaker that controls the garbage disposal, and then shine a flashlight on the pipeline to see if you can see what is blocking the pipeline. If you can see the blockage, you can use long-handled pliers or longer hooks to remove the blockage, reconnect the circuit breaker after removing the blockage, and check whether the drainage of the kitchen waste disposal is normal. If you can't see the blockage, then you can use the plunger to clear the pipeline. If you can't clear it with the plunger, then you can try to pour baking soda into the garbage disposal, then pour a little white vinegar, reconnect the circuit breaker of the under sink garbage disposal after 5 to 10 minutes and wash the pipeline with hot water. If it still doesn't work, then you need to ask a professional to clean up your garbage disposal.
Sink food waste disposer can be used for many years with only a little maintenance in daily life. The maintenance work is very simple, so make sure that you don't throw the harmful substances in the food garbage disposal like grease, large food, hard food and fiber-rich food. In addition, when the disposal is running, it should be ensured that the water is constantly flowing, so that the accumulated kitchen garbage can be washed out of the drain hole instead of being solidified inside the appliance.
