Commercial Type Grease Interceptor

A Commercial Type Grease Interceptor is an essential component of commercial kitchens and food service establishments, designed to efficiently capture and remove grease, oils, and other solid materials from wastewater before it enters the municipal sewer system. These specialized interceptors are typically installed underground or in a basement and utilize gravity to separate fats, oils, and grease (FOG) from water. By trapping these contaminants, grease interceptors prevent them from accumulating in sewer lines and causing blockages, backups, and overflows, which can lead to costly repairs and environmental damage. Additionally, grease interceptors help food service establishments comply with local regulations governing FOG discharge, reducing the risk of fines or penalties associated with non-compliance. Regular maintenance and cleaning of commercial grease interceptors are essential to ensure their continued effectiveness and prevent potential issues. With their role in promoting environmental protection and regulatory compliance, commercial grease interceptors are indispensable for any food service establishment committed to safe and responsible wastewater management.
