How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn OFF the Evergrind unit.

Remove and inspect baffle: Lift out the Evergrind splash guard and check for deformation or swelling that restricts flow. Clean with hot, soapy water.
Test without baffle: Briefly run water with the baffle removed (do not operate the Evergrind unit) to confirm that the sink drains freely.
Replace baffle: If the baffle is stiff or misshapen, install a new Evergrind splash guard of the correct model.
Clean flange: Scrub the Evergrind sink flange to remove mineral deposits that may interfere with baffle seating.

Disposal will not accept water or food easily; water pools above the splash baffle
