  • Sometimes "cleaning" the garbage disposal is not the real fix. It's temporary... You must find the source of "smell" and eliminate it. This video will hell you to properly diagnose the problem.

    Great video! I'm a newly single parent and never had to deal with home repair issues until now. I certainly have zero experience in plumbing. Hiring someone usually results in being overcharged. I'm learning new skills to take care of it myself. Thanks for the easy and well explained video!

    Great Video.
    I'm a Landscaper, Irrigation Sprinkler Specialist, Insraller and don't do much plumbing so this was really really helpful.
    I got this problem at my house so I'll dig into now that I know what to look for.
    Great Video

    I'm Still working on my smelly disposal after using the lemons, ice, baking soda / vinegar bleach and scrub brushes and commercial packets. I'm about ready to take the unit our and try cleaning under the rotating plate since everything else is spotless. This hose you show is the only other thing possible except the piping above the trap. THANKS for a great video

    Wow I’ve been asking my hubs to fix the stank for about 2-3 weeks now, he just left for work and I looked up “how to’s” here on yt and found your video! Running to the hardware store and hopefully have this puppy fixed by the time husband gets home! He’s gonna be so proud 🥲 😂
    Thanks for the great simple short but knowledgeable video! God bless from CO!

    Sam...another area of STINK..is the actual rubber boot on the sink drain of the desposer.
    You need to clean with a cleaner...the UNDERSIDE... of the rubber boot.
    Mine was slimy and smelly.
    I followed instructions, from another youtuber. That was my bad smell .
    Good video...on other areas to look for bad smells.
    Thanks for sharing...

    Perfect. I guess I will have to call a plumber because I am too scared to change the dishwasher line myself. I don’t want to cause any issues. Thanks Sam!

    i think this was the video & explanation i was looking for. the air gap keeps leaking water from the dishwasher. so it’s possible the air gap hose needs to be replaced or the rubber hose to the garbage disposal. thank you

  • @kyhi6900
    @kyhi6900 Před 3 lety

    I learned I just need to call someone to do this for me. I only put throughly rinsed dishes in the dish washer so the smell may be coming from the disposal but it only smells when I have the dishwasher running?

  • @TheHollyhotwheels
    @TheHollyhotwheels Před 2 lety

    Hey Sam. Thanks. I’m having this issue in my apartment currently and the smell is from every sink. Is that still connected to the garbage disposal or would you say that is some other problem? I have health issues and so I am nervous about the putrid smell. Hope you reply. Thank you.

    Can this issue makes the dishwasher not fill properly? After I installed a new air gap it won't fill all the way.

    note: some kit sinks don't have air gap at top,,, like mine. will replace hose and loop before terminating into g.b.

    I've been in here 3 years.
    Used the dishwasher one or two times. I'm sure it's that line ..

  • @ashimoda9732
    @ashimoda9732 Před 4 lety

    I just looked at mine and yup the hose is laying flat. What is that hose called, so I can buy it? Do I cut it shorter or do they have shorter hoses?

  • @crystalhagerman7147

    It smells under my sink i thought it was my garbage disposal but i didn't even think about the dishwasher causing the smell
