Estimated Read Time: 2 minutes

At Fix-it 24/7 Plumbing, Heating, Air & Electric, we understand the importance of keeping your home’s plumbing system running smoothly all year round.

Preparing Your Garbage Disposal for Winter

Essential Tips for Winterizing Your Garbage Disposal

Winterizing your garbage disposal is key to preventing frozen pipes and potential damage. Here are some effective strategies:

1. Routine Cleaning: Regularly clean your garbage disposal to prevent buildup. You can use a mixture of ice cubes and rock salt, which acts as a natural scrub for the blades.
2. Use Cold Water: Always use cold water when operating your disposal. It helps solidify any grease, making it easier to chop and flush through the system.
3. Limit Grease Disposal: Avoid pouring grease or oil down the disposal as these substances solidify in cold temperatures, potentially clogging your pipes.
4. Insulation: Ensure your pipes are well-insulated. This step helps guard against freezing temperatures that can cause pipes to burst.

Customer Experience: Ensuring Functionality
