Why Regular Grease Trap Maintenance Matters
Regulatory Compliance
Most municipalities require regular grease trap cleaning and maintenance for food service establishments. Our service helps you stay compliant with local regulations.
Prevent Costly Backups
Clogged grease traps can cause sewage backups into your kitchen, forcing temporary closure and expensive emergency repairs.
Eliminate Odors
Accumulated grease can create foul odors that affect your customers' dining experience. Regular cleaning keeps your establishment smelling fresh.
Protect Plumbing
Grease buildup can damage your plumbing system over time. Regular maintenance extends the life of your pipes and fixtures.
Environmental Protection
Proper grease disposal prevents fats, oils, and grease from entering the municipal sewer system and potentially harming the environment.
