Let’s face it – not all things deemed ‘disposable’ by the disposal manufacturer are welcomed with open arms by your kitchen sink wizard. While some might reckon your disposal can devour “uneaten fast food” (yes, really, “uneaten” is a red flag), our plumbing prowess tells a different story.
The Trouble-Makers You Should Avoid:
-
- Coffee Grounds: Trust us, your drain doesn’t fancy a coffee ground party. They pile up, they clog, and frankly, your garden might be their dream retirement home!
-
- Egg Shells: Sorry, but they’re not in the business of sharpening imaginary disposal blades. Go for garden compost instead—your plants will love the shell-boost.
-
- Pasta, Rice, Beans: You know how some things just love soaking up water? These guys are prime suspects. Save your pipes; feed them to the trash instead.
-
- Fibrous Veggies, like Celery: Those stringy, sneaky culprits have a knack for making your disposal throw a Thanksgiving tantrum. What a mess!
-
- Grease or Greasy Foods: Nope, not even a tiny sneak-in. Grease might as well be the ‘sticky bandit’ that your pipes despise.
-
- Always keep the cold water flowing – it’s the sidekick your disposal needs.
-
- Make sure your disposal’s raring to go before you toss in the food waste.
-
- Chop your scraps into nibble-sized bits to keep the disposal from going on strike.
-
- And once the kitchen concert’s over, give a final performance – run cold water to flush it all down the drain.
