Garbage Disposal Services: Understanding Your Investment

The cost of installing a garbage disposal depends on several factors, including the type of unit, your kitchen’s setup, and the complexity of the installation. Here’s what you should consider:

  • Type of Unit: There’s a range of garbage disposal models available, from basic units to more powerful, advanced systems. Higher-end models with features like noise reduction, anti-jamming technology, or larger grinding chambers may cost more upfront but offer better performance and longevity.
  • Horsepower: Garbage disposals come in different horsepower ratings, typically ranging from 1/3 HP to 1 HP. Higher horsepower units can handle tougher food waste and are less likely to jam, but they generally come with a higher price tag.
  • Kitchen Setup and Installation Complexity: If your kitchen isn’t currently set up for a garbage disposal, additional work may be needed. This could include modifying the sink, adjusting plumbing, or installing an electrical outlet. Homes with complex under-sink setups might require more time and labor for installation.
  • Removal of Old Unit: If you’re replacing an existing garbage disposal, the cost of removing the old unit will be factored into the overall price.

At Aztec Plumbing & Drains, we’ll help you find a garbage disposal solution that fits both your budget and your kitchen’s specific needs. We offer a range of models and can provide expert advice on the best option for your household.

Garbage Disposal Maintenance Tips

Regularly cleaning your garbage disposal by running a mixture of ice cubes and rock salt through it can help remove debris and sharpen the blades. However, one of the most important things you can do to keep your garbage disposal well-maintained is to know what items shouldn’t be sent down it in the first place. The following are just some of the things to avoid sending down your garbage disposal:

  • Bones
  • Coffee grounds
  • Eggshells
  • Fibrous vegetables
  • Grease and oil
  • Non-food items

Another great way to keep your garbage disposal maintained is by joining our Protection and Care Plan — a comprehensive plumbing maintenance program designed to help you save money while keeping your systems in proper working order. Through this membership, you’ll enjoy an annual 100-point plumbing inspection that includes your garbage disposal. Additionally, you can benefit from exclusive perks like 10% repair discounts and priority service scheduling.

Common Questions About Garbage Disposal Services

Here are answers to some of the most common questions we hear from Fort Myers homeowners:

How can I tell if my garbage disposal needs repair?

If your disposal is making strange noises, not grinding food properly, or frequently clogs, it likely needs a repair. Other signs include slow drainage or unpleasant smells.

Should I repair or replace my garbage disposal?

This depends on the age and condition of the unit. Minor problems like a jam can often be repaired, but if your disposal is old or has major motor issues, replacement might be more cost-effective.

How do I maintain my garbage disposal?

You can maintain your garbage disposal by running cold water while using it, avoiding putting fibrous foods down the drain, and regularly grinding up ice cubes to clean the blades.

How long will my garbage disposal last?

In Fort Myers, disposals typically last 8 to 12 years, but regular maintenance can extend their lifespan, even in the humid climate.
