Why Grease Traps Are Essential of Grease Traps
A grease trap plays a crucial role in your foodservice operation. When installed and maintained correctly, the grease trap is an effective solution to dispose of your establishment of fats and grease. When properly maintained, these devices prevent oils from entering the sewer system, preventing blockages and foul odors. However, if the system breaks down, it can result in sewer backups and unpleasant smells. Regular grease trap cleaning and upkeep are necessary for keeping your operation running efficiently. We at Brewton Plumbing Services offer professional grease trap cleaning and maintenance to commercial businesses in the foodservice industry. Our trained technicians will inspect and service your grease traps promptly, tailored to fit your business hours and needs.
Understanding Your Grease Traps
Grease traps are designed to prevent fats and grease from contaminating the sewer line along with wastewater. As wastewater flows into the grease trap, specialized barriers cause the oils and grease to float to the surface and become trapped. The water at the bottom is allowed to pass into the sewer line while the grease and oils build up at the top. When grease and oil build-up becomes excessive, it can clog the grease trap, causing a disruption in the system.
Warning Signs of a Clog
The main cause of grease trap clogs is infrequent cleaning. If the trap isn’t cleaned regularly, debris and oils can accumulate, leading to blockages that cause water, or even sewage, to back up into your kitchen. Blockage can also create noxious odors in the kitchen as grease and oil have nowhere to vent. If your grease trap is outdoors, clogs can result in backups in the main sewer line, with water potentially rising from manhole covers. It’s important to check your grease traps remain unobstructed to prevent these issues. Hiring a professional company like Brewton Plumbing Services ensures your grease traps are properly maintained to avoid costly repairs or malfunctions.
Why Regular Grease Trap Cleaning is Necessary
Having your grease trap cleaned regularly prevents flooding and bad smells, ensuring that your kitchen remains safe and your operations run smoothly. The benefits of regular maintenance include eliminating customer complaints, preventing business closures, and ensuring environmental safety. Preventing costly cleanup and remediation services is another key reason for maintaining your grease traps.
