Be aware of these typical garbage disposal problems:
- Disposal Not Operating: If your garbage disposal doesn’t turn on, it could indicate an electrical problem or motor failure.
- Humming Noise: A continuous humming noise often means the disposal is jammed or the motor is malfunctioning.
- Garbage Disposal Leaking: Leaks may be due to worn seals or loose connections.
- Persistent Odors: Unpleasant smells usually point to trapped food particles or bacterial buildup.
- Clogs: Slow drainage or water backing up indicates a clog.
- No Power: This can result from a tripped reset button, blown fuse, or other electrical issues.
- Poor Drainage: If water isn’t draining, there might be a blockage in the disposal or drain pipe.
