Grease trap cleaning

What Is a Grease Trap?

Grease traps are specially designed units that intercept and contain fats, oils, and grease (FOG) from wastewater, preventing them from entering and clogging the main sewer lines. Over time, these systems will trap and accumulate a significant amount of fats, oils and grease and prevent them from entering the main sewer system.

We are in the age where our environment needs to be protected from pollution that can be controlled with proper equipment and training. This is important for sustaining a clean, healthy, and environmentally safe operation in any business, especially those in the food service industry. In Arizona the ADEQ will regulate and monitor these businesses to make sure they comply with regular scheduled maintenance for the oil separators and grease traps.

It's important to be aware that over time these traps can accumulate significant amounts of FOG, necessitating regular cleaning by a licensed waste management service company.

Employing professional service technicians to clean your grease traps can save you from the costly and messy task of dealing with FOG buildup.
