Keep those grease traps clean

In the food service business, it’s easy to get caught up in the whirlwind of customers, orders and actually running the place.

But keeping the grease traps clean is a critical part of a successful restaurant operation. Depending on the size of the establishment, grease traps in commercial kitchens should be cleaned every one to three months. Generally speaking, when it reaches a quarter capacity is a good time to schedule a cleaning. Waiting too long can result in unpleasant odors, diminished trap effectiveness, clogs and slow drainage. In extreme cases, backup and overflow can happen, which costs you both time and money.

The plumbing technicians at Comfort Shield are here to help. We’ll bring our truck on site, pump out the trap and properly dispose of the fats, oils and grease that has built up in the trap at an approved facility.
