Grease Trap Care Guide

Caring for your Grease Trap

There are several steps you can follow to care for your Grease Trap, and ensure compliance with environmental regulations:

Fryer Grease Disposal

Fryer grease should not be disposed of into the drains or the Grease Trap.  This grease has a separate receptacle.  Placing it into the Grease Trap may create upstream problems such as back ups or blockages to restaurant lines.

Routine Maintenance

Regularly scheduled maintenance should be part of your policies and procedures to ensure compliance with environmental requirements, as well as prevent plumbing problems.  Grease Traps that are not routinely cleaned can lead to blockages that can be expensive to repair or fines by local environmental authorities.
