What Is A Grease Trap?
A grease trap is a small box device that is connected directly to an outgoing sink drain to retain oils, fats, grease, and food particles, preventing them from going into and clogging the sewer system. Grease traps get filled up over time and must be cleaned out.
Since they can only hold small quantities of captured grease and food debris, maintenance must be done frequently to keep them functioning properly. Most local municipalities also require that interior grease traps are cleaned at least once a month. It is important that you check with your local district to determine the minimum maintenance requirements.
How Are Grease Traps Maintained?
Like any other drain, grease traps have to be pumped out or “cleaned” regularly to prevent clogs and possible issues such as foul odors and slow draining sinks. That’s where Totally Awesome Plumbing Services comes in. We will put you on a routine maintenance schedule and ensure that your grease trap “solids” never exceed the recommended level.
Benefits Of Regular Grease Trap Cleaning Services
Aside from ensuring that your food establishment is compliant with the province and local health policy, a professional grease trap maintenance program can help you:
Prevent Clogs And Backup
If too much fat, oil, and grease, known as FOG in the industry, build up in your grease trap, the system can become clogged, resulting in a reduction in functionality.
Save The Environment
Without proper cleaning, your grease traps can overflow and lose their ability to capture more FOG. When this happens, the FOG may end up escaping outside, often into major waterways or in-ground drainage fields. This is very harmful to the local environment.
Save Money
The most common problem associated with the buildup of FOG is backups in the grease interceptor. As the interceptor becomes full, fat and oils will travel back up the drain, resulting in messes that are costly to clean up.
A grease trap is an essential component of your plumbing system. To ensure your plumbing system works effectively, schedule a regular service with grease trap cleaners at Totally Awesome Plumbing Services.
