Why is a Grease Trap and Liquid Trap Necessary? A grease trap prevents the discharge of grease, fats and oils from clogging public sewage lines as well as penetrating into public water resources. There are various different grease trap sizes for different plumbing systems.



How Does a Grease Trap and Liquid-Trap Work?

The grease trap has two chambers. Grease is cooled down in the one chamber and then solidifies. Once solidified the grease floats to the top of the chamber leaving other liquid at the bottom. Water and liquid are sent to the second chamber, leaving all the fat and grim to float on top of the first chamber. Grease traps are normally installed near 3 compartment sinks, dishwashers and wherever foods and grease deposits are common.
