Maintaining grease traps and drain lines is crucial for the smooth operation of any commercial kitchen in Malaysia. Despite regular maintenance, fats, oils, and grease (FOG) can still be discharged into the pipes and sewer lines, leading to serious issues. Here’s a closer look at the potential problems and how our hydro-jetting service can help:
Problems Caused by Clogged Pipes in Malaysian Kitchens:

FAQs on Hydro-Jetting:
How often should I jet my pipes?
- It varies based on your waste output and business activity. At a minimum, you should jet your pipes once a year. For better prevention, consider twice a year.
Signs of a clogged drain line?
- Slow draining sinks, dishwashers, or floor drains are common signs of a clog. An overflowing grease trap can also indicate a blockage.
