Portswood Grease Trap Experts
Understanding Grease Traps:
Grease traps are plumbing devices designed to intercept FOG and solid particles from kitchen wastewater. They consist of two compartments, one for collecting solid debris and the other for retaining FOG. When wastewater flows through the trap, the FOG floats to the top, and solid particles settle at the bottom, leaving relatively clean water to pass into the sewer system.
Importance of Grease Trap Cleaning:
Prevent Blockages: Over time, FOG and solid debris accumulate in the grease trap, potentially leading to blockages in plumbing lines and drains. Regular cleaning prevents these issues.
Compliance: Many health and environmental regulations mandate that commercial kitchens maintain and clean grease traps at specified intervals. Failure to comply can result in fines or closure.
Hygiene: Dirty and neglected grease traps can emit foul odors and become breeding grounds for bacteria. Cleaning ensures a clean and odor-free kitchen environment.
Avoid Costly Repairs: Neglecting grease trap maintenance can lead to plumbing backups, which may require expensive repairs and downtime for your business.
