What Is the Purpose of a Commercial Grease Trap?
Grease traps are a common feature of commercial plumbing systems that intercept and prevent greases and solids from entering the public water system. Due to the fact commercial kitchens produce more oils and solids than most public wastewater treatment systems can handle, grease traps are installed to help separate the fats, oils, and greases (also known as FOGs) from wastewater. When FOGs enter the sewer system, they cling to the insides of pipes and harden over time, resulting in a nasty clog.

How Often Should Grease Traps Be Cleaned?
Most manufacturers recommend cleaning commercial grease traps every one to three months, depending on the amount of grease disposed of daily. When a quarter of your commercial grease trap is filled with oils, fats, and greases, it’s time for it to be cleaned. Once your interceptor is more than 25 percent full of debris, it’s less effective at eliminating grease from wastewater and can cause other problems down the road.
