Fortunately,<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/mrdrain.com\/appointment.html\"> Mr.Drain Plumbing<\/a><\/strong> is here to explain everything you need to know. The large amount of fat, oil, and grease (often called \u201cFOG\u201d) generated by restaurants can clog drains and wastewater systems. For this reason, local government requires that commercial kitchens install grease traps \u2014 also called grease interceptors. Located between the business\u2019 drain and the main sewer line, the traps filter out FOG for easy collection and disposal. This helps prevent problematic levels of FOG from reaching the municipal wastewater system.<br><br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mrdrain.com\/appointment.html\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"206\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/mrdrain.com\/public\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Clip_service.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-799\"\/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><br><br><br><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:28px\"><strong>For Instant Quote On Grease Traps <a href=\"https:\/\/mrdrain.com\/appointment.html\">Click Here!<\/a><\/strong><br><br><br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:28px\"><strong>Give us a call today at<a href=\"https:\/\/mrdrain.com\/appointment.html\"> 510-257-1408<\/a><\/strong><br><br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mrdrain.com\/appointment.html\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"194\" height=\"259\" src=\"https:\/\/mrdrain.com\/public\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/images-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-913\"\/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><br><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:28px\"><br><br><strong>How Does a Grease Trap Work?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:22px\">Grease traps intercept and filters out the FOG while allowing the remaining water to pass through to the wastewater system. They work by slowing the movement of (and thereby cooling) the water in the drain. Water and FOG do not mix, so as both begin to cool, the FOG coagulates on the water\u2019s surface where it is easier to skim off and remove.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:28px\"><strong>Maintaining Your Grease Traps<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:22px\">You can be fined if your grease traps are not working correctly. This generally happens when FOG build up in the traps over time, decreasing their effectiveness. One preventative step your business can take is instructing employees to throw away fat, oil, and grease into the garbage instead of washing it down the drain. You can also schedule a regular cleaning for your grease traps to remove build up before it becomes a problem.
