What does garbage disposal work cover in a Musser Park home?
In Musser Park, garbage disposal work starts from the housing: two-storey brick rowhomes from 1870 to 1930. A home needs it when a unit hums without grinding, leaks from its body, trips its reset repeatedly, fills the kitchen with drain smells, or a kitchen remodel calls for a new unit. The streets here are East Chestnut Street, North Lime Street and East Orange Street.
The pipework here is cast iron stacks and galvanized supplies of rowhome age, frequently renewed in the kitchen and bathroom while the mains stay original. On water and sewer, city water and city sewer throughout; condition varies house by house depending on how much each owner has renewed.

Call (607) 305-8020Garbage Disposal questions for Musser Park, answered
Are the laterals under Musser Park rowhomes usually clay?
On the unrenovated houses, yes, clay sections with mortar joints are common for homes of this age, and tree roots enter at those joints. A camera inspection shows the material and condition of your own line before anyone recommends cleaning, repair or renewal.
What should never go into a disposal?
In Musser Park, grease, coffee grounds in quantity, fibrous foods such as celery, starchy peels and bones beyond the unit rating all cause jams and drain buildup. Cold water and small amounts of soft food suit a unit best, and the drain line downstream benefits too.
Can a disposal be added to a kitchen without one?
In Musser Park, usually, yes, if the sink, drain position and electrical supply allow it. Homes on septic systems should discuss load with the plumber first, since ground food adds solids to the tank and can shorten the time between pump outs.
