How do I keep my garbage disposal running smoothly?

To keep your garbage disposal running smoothly, run cold water down the drain for 15 seconds before and after using the disposal. This will help flush the waste into the main sewer and prevent backups from occurring.

What can I put down the garbage disposal?

Most food waste is fair game, but don’t put grease, cooking oils, harsh chemicals or paint down the drain - ever and avoid stringy or fibrous foods, egg shells, onion skins, pasta, rice, oatmeal, fruit pits, nuts, coffee grounds, bones, and shells.

How do I avoid clogged toilets?

The best way to avoid toilet clogs is to not flush anything other than toilet paper down the toilet. Keeping a wastebasket in every bathroom will help you avoid the temptation.

More often than not, it means the flapper isn’t closing all the way. If jiggling the handle doesn’t fix the issue, it may be time for a new flapper.

Installing a water softener can help you prevent clogs and extend the life of your pipes and appliances. Soft water also makes your clothes last longer, your hair and skin feel softer, and your water taste better.

Is hard water bad for you?

Hard water isn’t unsafe, but it does shorten the lifespan of your pipes and appliances, it increases the likelihood of clogs, it’s terrible for your hair and skin, and it causes you to use considerably more dish soap, laundry detergent, and electricity.

Soft water has fewer ions, like calcium and magnesium, which can lead to build up in your pipes and increase the likelihood of clogs. Soft water is also easier on your pipes and appliances, hair and skin, clothing and more.

Why does my plumbing smell?

How can I unclog a drain?
