Grease traps require regular cleaning and the recovered FOG/water mixture must be collected by a properly licensed waste contractor and disposed of at a licensed facility. We provide full maintenance services so you can rest assured are looked after property and to all the correct standards.

For adequate maintainance of your own greasetraps the minimum cleaning frequency required for grease traps/interceptors is 90 days. However, more frequent cleaning intervals are recommended to prevent grease traps/interceptors from operating poorly or improperly. Some other best management practices we suggest follow include the below:

• Regular inspection and maintenance of the grease management system
• Develop a grease trap/interceptor cleaning procedure and maintenance log /record for staff
• The use of strainers in sinks
• Dry wiping and/or pre-rinsing of dishes and pots before they are washed in order to in order to remove additional grease
• Prior to cleaning, allow ice to melt in the sink, this will reduce odours and cause grease to congeal, making removal easier
• Remove only grease and any accumulations, leave the water behind
• Flush with warm soapy water after a clean out and a final visual inspection
