One of the many things that separate a commercial kitchen from a residential one is the plethora of rules and regulations that the commercial kitchen must follow. These are in place to keep everyone safe, from customers to employees. When it comes to keeping your commercial kitchen clean, a grease trap can play an important role. Here’s why your business needs a commercial grease trap.
Remain Compliant With Laws And Regulations
While there may not be a state or local law specifically mandating grease traps, almost all areas require commercial premises to manage all of their waste. A grease trap is a steel, rectangular device that sits at the junction between the main sewer line and the commercial disposal system and traps items before they enter the local sewer system.
Grease Traps Are Environmentally Friendly
This procedure is crucial for your plumbing system, the municipal system, and the ecosystem at large. Foods, oils, and fats can seriously damage your plumbing system and hasten the development of clogs. If the fats, greases, and oils get into the nearby waterways, they can also damage aquatic plants and animals.
Guaranteed Maintenance With A Professional Service
When a grease trap fills up, it needs to be cleaned out so that it can function properly. Some individuals think you can do this yourself, but you should hire a professional. They are equipped with the know-how and technology to complete the job efficiently. The majority of cleaning services are affordable, and by making sure the cleaning is done correctly the first time, you avoid the headache and cost of fixing any damage an amateur might create. Having a grease trap professionally fitted and maintained is always worthwhile.
