Grease Trap Cleaning

Grease trap cleaning is a crucial aspect of commercial kitchen maintenance, particularly for establishments where cooking oils and fats are prevalent. Grease traps, also known as grease interceptors, are designed to capture fats, oils, and grease (FOG) from wastewater before it enters the sewer system. Over time, these traps accumulate FOG along with food particles and other debris, which can lead to clogs and foul odors if not regularly cleaned. Professional grease trap cleaning involves removing the accumulated FOG and debris from the trap, ensuring its continued effectiveness in preventing grease-related plumbing issues.

The frequency of grease trap cleaning depends on various factors such as the size of the trap, the volume of FOG produced by the kitchen, and local regulations. In most cases, grease traps should be cleaned at least every 1 to 3 months to maintain optimal functionality. Neglecting regular cleaning can result in costly plumbing problems, health code violations, and environmental pollution from grease buildup in the sewer system. By investing in routine grease trap cleaning, commercial kitchens can mitigate these risks and ensure smooth operations while adhering to regulatory standards.
