Grease & Septic Cleanout

Grease Traps can be major problem for restaurants and other food processing establishments when they are not pumped and cleaned on a regular basis. Routine cleanings can keep the system operating properly.

Grease Traps Basics
Grease Traps are very important to a kitchen’s wastewater drainage system. Wastewater from garbage disposals, sinks, and floor drains contains various amounts of grease and oils. The greasy waste passes through drainpipes that lead to the grease trap. The job of the trap is to slow the flow of water and allow the grease to cool. Once the grease is cooled it rises to the top of the trap because it is lighter than water. A large percent of the grease and oils are then contained or "trapped" in the grease trap.

Every grease trap/interceptor needs to be cleaned. The length of time between cleanings will vary with the type of service the establishment does and size of the grease trap/interceptor. Our staff would be more than happy to work with you to establish the proper cleaning schedule for your business.
