Grease Trap

supplyhouse has a wide range of grease traps that are used to eliminate grease and oil from wastewater. They are mostly used in commercial kitchens and restaurants. Grease Traps slow the flow of wastewater using a holding tank. Once the water is slowed down, it cools and allows the grease to separate from the water. The cooled water is then allowed to exit the grease trap while the grease is trapped.

Grease traps is an innovative and eco-friendly drain cleaner, making it the perfect solution to drainage problems caused by the build-up of grease, oil and fat in commercial kitchens and restaurants. The use of harsh caustic chemical cleaners or acids for clearing unwanted obstructions is no longer guaranteed to solve the problem. Not only are these chemicals dangerous for both the user and the environment, but also detrimental to the existing plumbing, drain-lines and drainage installations. Now it’s been made mandatory for grease trap installation in all facilities where food is prepared on a commercial scale.

The size of a grease trap required depends upon the amount of waste that is produced by a given facility. To determine the correct size grease trap use the dimensions of the waste sinks. The traps are differentiated by their pounds and gallons per minute. Grease Traps can be placed under the sink or they can be buried.
