Commercial Grease Trap Installation Services

How Grease Traps Work
A grease trap is installed directly in your kitchen’s wastewater line. As wastewater flows in, FOG floats to the top, solid particles settle at the bottom, and only gray water exits into the sewer. This separation process protects your plumbing from clogs and reduces the risk of city violations.
Furthermore, grease traps play a key role in environmental protection by reducing contamination of the public sewer system.
Why Local Health Codes Require Grease Traps
Even though fats and oils enter the drain as liquids, they cool and solidify quickly. Without a trap, this buildup leads to costly blockages—not just in your system, but also in municipal lines. For this reason, most cities mandate grease interceptors for all commercial kitchens.
Installing the right trap in the right location—and ensuring it meets inspection standards—is the best way to avoid fees, downtime, or noncompliance.
