GARBAGE DISPOSERS

Garbage disposers are a common appliance in many homes. While plumbers rarely work on the motors of disposers, they are often the first service people called when a disposer is acting up. Problems with disposers can fall into three primary categories: plumbing, electrical, and appliance repair. While you, as a plumber, may not perform electrical work, you may be required to advise the property owner to call an electrician. Plumbers must be able to correct plumbing problems and refer other types of problems to appropriate repair people. As an example of knowing when to refer a customer to another type of service person, let's consider the following scenario A homeowner calls you to come out and repair a garbage disposer that is not working properly. When you arrive, you find that the disposer will cut on, but that it almost immediately trips out the reset button and goes off. After testing the disposer a few times, you are convinced the problem is most likely in the electrical wiring. Unless you are a licensed electrician, you should advise the homeowner of your opinion and suggest that perhaps an electrician should be called. Under these conditions, you have fulfilled your role as a plumber. You responded to the call and did the initial troubleshooting. Seeing that the problem was not plumbing related, you gave your opinion and suggestions. That is about all that anyone could expect of you. I bring up the referral issue here because there are many times when working with appliances that the trouble is not in the domain of plumbers. Now then, what can go wrong with a garbage disposer? Well, quite a bit, actually. To expand on this, let's take the probable troubleshooting phases on a one-at-a-time basis. We will do this in the form of stories about actual service calls. Disposers that are suffering from jammed impeller blades can be fixed in one of three ways, depending on the type of disposer you are working with. Expensive disposers often have a switch that allows the rotation of the impellers to be reversed; thereby freeing them from whatever is jamming them. This type of repair, when done by a plumber, often makes homeowners feel foolish and many plumbers can't look the customers in the face when they present their bill. As embarrassing as this situation can be for both parties, it is often simply a matter of turning on the reversing switch to solve the problem. Many models of disposers are not equipped with reversing switches. A good number of these lower-grade disposers are, however, equipped with a special socket that allows the flywheel to be rotated. These sockets are usually hex shaped and located on the bottom of the unit. Wrenches for the socket are supplied with the disposers. A regular Allen wrench will get the job done if the factory-supplied wrench is not available. Once you have a wrench in the socket, all you have to do is turn the flywheel with the wrench to free the jam.
