Troy County Garbage Disposal Repair FAQ

There are few simple ways to avoid damaging your garbage disposal. Some of them include using cold water in grinding the leftover foods instead of hot water. Hot water melts fats that can cause clogging. Make sure that you do not overfill your garbage disposal. Run water before and after using your garbage disposal to get rid of residues. Avoid using bleach, drain cleaners or any other chemicals down your unit. Also, avoid grinding hard stuff in your garbage disposals like bones, coffee grounds, corn husks, glass or metal. It can be very damaging to your unit.
If your garbage disposal is not working after turning it on, there is possibly some issue with the start switch or the motor may be defective. If you do not have any background in troubleshooting or you have tried troubleshooting it using the manufacturer's manual, you may need to call a plumber to fix it for you.
If your garbage disposal is emitting a foul odor, you can use some non-toxic and biodegradable cleaning pellets available in your local stores.

Currently renting the lower level of a 2 family, both apartments are noticing that if we even flush a toilet then try using ANY other water source after we get dribbles if that. We can't use the dish washer in our apartment without the second level apartment losing their water. Is this a town problem due to the shortage (my landlord is trying to tell us this) Or is this a blockage or pipe problem? I need to show him that a professional plumber agrees this is a household problem to get him to fix it...if you could please provide any information through the email provided I would be very thankful!
