Keep your garbage disposal in tip-top shape! Soft food waste like mashed potatoes, cooked carrots, and eggs can go down the drain – but avoid hard items like bones, eggshells, or coffee grounds, as they could cause the blades to wear out or jam. To ensure the smooth operation of your appliance, always run water while using the garbage disposal to help break up debris before flushing it through the drain. Call Murray Plumbing for expert advice on keeping your disposal running smoothly!

Depending on its age and type, there are several potential reasons why your heater may not last as long as you would like.

It could mean one or both elements are not working in your electric water heater. The top element and lower element work together to heat the entire tank. If only one element is functioning, the whole tank won’t be heated – leaving you with lukewarm showers!

Have you ever noticed a reset button on your electric water heater? If it’s tripped, that could mean something bigger is going wrong, and you should seek professional help to prevent further damage.

Are you getting lukewarm water from your gas hot water tank? Chances are, the culprit is a deteriorating dip tube. This small pipe transports cold water to the bottom of the tank where it can be heated up – but over time, this piece may wear and tear until its length is too short!

If you’re having hot water tank troubles, reach out to our experts at Murray Plumbing for reliable answers and solutions.
