What’s a Grease Trap?
A grease trap is a device within a drain or waste pipe that prevents grease from entering the sewer system. They’re basically a box of water located under a sink that filters and collects grease, food particles, oils or any other liquid waste.
Grease traps are typically used in commercial kitchens due to the high amounts of oils and fats going down the sink. They’re usually located in food preparation areas, kitchen sinks, floor wastes, dishwashers and garbage areas.
Why Should Grease Traps Be Cleaned?
A build-up of oil and grease can cause bacteria growth, lingering odours and suspicious smells from blockages and overflow. By emptying and cleaning your grease traps we’ll help you prevent these blockages, and avoid potential pest infestation and health risks.
