Why Should I Install a Garbage Disposal?
Are you considering installing a garbage disposal unit in your house? A kitchen equipped with a garbage disposal is a convenience every modern home should boast. Here are several reasons we recommend adding a garbage disposal unit to your kitchen:
Banish stinky food smells
Few things are worse than the stench of food scraps rotting in your trash can. A garbage disposal will keep stinky stuff out of the trash and keep your kitchen smelling fresh and clean.
Keep things clean
Not only will your house smell better, but you will decrease the chance of attracting pests, insects, and animals into your home. A garbage disposal also means less waste decomposing and producing bacteria in the trash.
Decrease clutter
With a garbage disposal in your kitchen, you will enjoy a neater, cleaner food prep area, fewer garbage cans and bags cluttering your kitchen, and save valuable cabinet and floor space.
Make life easier
Don’t waste time scraping out coffee grounds or meticulously cleaning off plates before rinsing. With a garbage disposal, you won’t have to worry about small pieces of food clogging up your plumbing. Also, you’ll make fewer trips carrying trash bags to the curb or dumpster.
Keep food waste out of the landfill
A garbage disposal keeps food waste out the landfill thereby reducing methane gases produced as food rots. Also, waste sent to the landfill is often incinerated, another process that produces emissions.
Reduce transportation costs
Reducing the overall volume of garbage sent to landfills means fewer gas-guzzling garbage trucks on the road. This saves energy consumption and reduces fossil fuel emissions.
Reuse and recycle
Wastewater treatment plants can recycle food waste from your disposal to produce electrical power. They can also turn the waste into fertilizer.
Still need convincing? A garbage disposal uses only about 1% of your total household water consumption, and your electricity expenditure will total less than 50 cents per year. If you’d like to live responsibly and keep things simple and easy, we recommend installing a garbage disposal unit in your kitchen.
