The hot water to the sink in bath and everywhere else is fine. The hot water heater seems fine too. All the lines are copp

Garbage Disposer Switch Kaput? 2008-07-31 20:41:00 Most garbage disposer complaints on the plumbing forum have to do with a unit that won't run.

It won't shut off.My instincts tell me the cause is likely a worn-out on/off switch rather than a malfunction of the disposer itself. The switch is a Read more:Garbage
