Why Grease Trap Cleaning Should Be on Your Radar

Grease traps collect fats, oils, and grease (FOG) to prevent plumbing and sewer issues—but when neglected, they become a liability. Here’s why regular grease trap cleaning matters:

Prevents Drain Backups: Excess grease can clog pipes and cause kitchen flooding.
Avoids Foul Odors: Accumulated grease emits unpleasant smells that customers and staff will notice.
Complies with Health Regulations: Many cities require regular grease trap servicing.
Protects Your Reputation: A backup during lunch rush is a nightmare that can lead to bad reviews.

Schedule professional cleaning every 1 to 3 months depending on your kitchen’ volume, and keep records for health inspections.
