GREASE TRAP SERVICES

GREASE TRAP SERVICES

Grease traps are important for keeping fats, oil, and grease from food production from entering the sewer line with waste water. When waste water enters the grease trap, a system of baffles causes the oils and grease to rise from the water and become trapped within the receptacle.

The water at the bottom of the receptacle is allowed to pass through into the sewer line as the grease and oil accumulate from the top down. If the grease and oil are allowed to accumulate too much, it can clog the grease trap and cause a backup.

Warning Signs of a Clog
A clogged inside grease trap can cause a backup that brings water and possibly sewage into your kitchen. A clog can also cause noxious fumes from the oil and grease to linger in the kitchen because there is nowhere for the fumes to vent. If you have an outside grease trap, a clog may cause a backup in your main sewer line and cause the water to come up out of the manhole covers.

The main reason that grease traps become clogged is because they are not being rodded frequently enough to remove the built-up debris. Make sure you regularly check your grease traps to ensure that the grease and oil haven’t accumulated too much in the receptacle or have clogged the lines in and out of the trap.

You must rod out the grease trap and the inlet and outlet pipes to remove the built-up debris.
