Sacramento Grease Trap Cleaning
At Millennium Plumbing Specialist, we know how busy commercial kitchens, like restaurants and cafeterias, can get.
Every day, a lot of wastewater flows through your kitchen.
This happens when you use the prep sink, the automatic dishwasher, and clean up.
So, regular grease trap maintenance is important.
Regular Restaurant Grease Trap Cleaning is Important
Commercial kitchens are required by California law to have all their kitchen wastewater – from dishwashing stations to prep sinks – flow into a grease trap.
If your grease trap isn’t properly maintained, it can cause serious problems, including:
- Clogged drains: If too much grease builds up, it can clog the outlet pipe, causing backups and slow drainage systems.
- Messy overflows: When grease traps overflow, they create a mess in your restaurant that can shut down operations.
- Health department closures: The health department may shut down your business until the issue is resolved.
The inlet and outlet drain line connections are the fittings that bring wastewater in and out of the grease interceptor.
These are usually the areas for grease build up or breaks.
What is a grease trap?
Restaurant grease traps (also known as a commercial grease interceptor) is an essential plumbing device that keeps fats, oils, and grease (called FOG) from getting into the main sewer lines.
In a busy place like a restaurant or cafeteria, a lot of greasy wastewater goes down the drains from sinks and dishwashers.
The grease trap catches the grease and lets the cleaner wastewater flow through, preventing clogged pipes and bad smells.
Once the grease is trapped, only clean wastewater flows into the sanitation line.
Restaurants, cafeterias, bakeries, and even hotels need grease traps to comply with California health and safety rules, and to avoid costly plumbing problems.
