We provide pumping and cleaning of restaurant grease traps to remove FOG buildup, ensuring optimal performance and compliance with health regulations.

Understanding Grease Traps and Grease Interceptors

Grease traps and grease interceptors are essential components in commercial kitchens, designed to capture fats, oils, and grease (FOG) from wastewater before it enters the sewer system. Over time, these substances accumulate and can cause blockages, unpleasant odors, and costly plumbing issues if not properly maintained. Ensure your kitchen remains safe, efficient, and compliant.

  • How often should I have my grease trap cleaned?

  • What’s the difference between a grease trap and a grease interceptor?

    A grease trap is a smaller unit designed for lower-volume kitchens, while a grease interceptor is a larger system used in high-volume commercial kitchens. Both require regular cleaning and pumping to remove fats, oils, and grease (FOG) and prevent plumbing issues.
