What is Grease Trap Cleaning?
Grease trap cleaning is the removal of fats, oils, and greases (FOG) that accumulate in your grease trap system. Grease traps (also known as grease interceptors) are plumbing devices installed in commercial kitchens to catch FOG from wastewater and prevent pipe blockages and sewer overflows.
Regular cleaning keeps your kitchen drains clear and your drainage system running smoothly.
How Often Should You Clean Your Grease Trap?
To get the best out of your grease trap, follow a maintenance schedule. For high-usage establishments, grease trap cleaning should be done every 1-3 months. For moderate usage, every 3-6 months. Cleaning frequency depends on the size of the trap, volume of FOG produced, and type of food service.
