Installation of grease traps is required in all commercial and industrial food preparation facilities. To maintain public health and safety standards, our business specializes in keeping grease traps consistently clean.
What is Grease Trap Cleaning?
A grease trap prevents oil and grease from entering the wastewater system. When sewage passes through the grease trap unit, the oil rises to the surface and is captured by baffles, which are plastic separators. The water, now grease-free, continues into the sewer lines.
Why Grease Trap Cleaning is Necessary
At room temperature, oils from bacon and other animal fats cool and solidify. These solidified oils can clog sewer systems, leading to dangerous and expensive sewer floods. Separating oil at the source also eases the burden and increases the efficiency of the municipal sewage treatment plant.
Legal Requirements
According to the law, all restaurants must install suitable grease traps to prevent oil contamination of sewage systems and grease obstructions in sewer lines.

Importance of Grease Trap Maintenance
The treatment plant is burdened by the fat, oil, and grease in wastewater. In sewage systems, bacon grease can cause obstructions in sewer pipes. If a restaurant’s kitchen grease trap overflows, the business must halt operations immediately. It is a legal necessity for even the smallest food service restaurant to have a grease trap cleaning contract with an authorized cleaning firm to maintain the public drainage system’s effectiveness and cleanliness.
Cleaning Frequency
Depending on the size of the grease trap, food service facilities must clean the grease traps at intervals of once a week, once every two weeks, or once a month. Grease traps holding 40 gallons or less need to be cleaned weekly, according to Abu Dhabi Municipality guidelines. Grease traps larger than 40 gallons must be cleaned twice a month at 15-day intervals. The facility must keep a record of cleaning for inspectors to verify. Cleaning the grease trap at least once a month is advised by some international standards. A common rule is to clean when the grease trap is one-fourth full with grease to maintain system efficiency.
