Fats, Oils and Greases are Gone with Shreks Septic Services!

Your grease trap is designed to intercept most grease and solids before they enter a disposal system. These traps are built to actually reduce the amount of fats, oils and greases fats that enter sewer systems. However, high-viscosity fats and cooking grease (such as lard) solidify when they cool and can combine with other solids to potentially block drain pipes.

Approximately 50% of all sewer overflows are caused by grease blockages and these can lead to a build-up of waste materials that may overflow into your kitchen and beyond. Clogs can also obstruct your plumbing, leading to improper or complete cessation of drainage.

Avoid Damage with Regular Grease Trap Cleaning in Toowoomba

Clogged grease traps are also a serious fire hazard. Because grease is highly flammable, fires will spread quickly and are very difficult to bring under control. This makes them extremely dangerous and likely to cause major property damage – or worse. Lastly, a dirty or clogged grease trap is a health code violation and as such, you are legally subject to serious fines if you do not maintain your grease traps correctly. If the situation warrants, you may even be ordered to close your business in order to fix the problem – leading to an additional loss of revenue.

Regular grease trap cleaning and maintenance is a very simple and cost-effective way to reduce and prevent the associated risk of fat build-up. The experts at Shreks Septic Services will inspect your grease trap in Toowoomba and surrounding areas to keep it clean and running smoothly. Remember, no job is too big or too small for us.

Grease trap FAQ

  • How often should I get my grease trap cleaned?

    On average, a grease trap needs cleaning every three months or so. As a general rule, if more than a quarter of the tank is full, it needs to be cleaned out.

  • Is a grease trap a legal requirement for a hospitality business?

    Yes. To obtain a trade wastewater license, a hospitality business (including restaurants, canteens, hotels, cafes etc) have a grease trap in place. It also needs to be in good, working condition.

  • Can you clean a grease trap with bleach?

    No. Bleach not only destroys natural bacteria and enzymes that help to break down the fats and oils in your grease trap, but it's also damaging to the environment. When you use us to clean out your grease trap, we do so in an environmentally responsible manner, at the same time as leaving it in top condition.
