Why Regular Grease Trap Maintenance Is Essential for Efficient Restaurant Operations

Running a restaurant means managing various systems behind the scenes to ensure smooth operations, compliance, and customer satisfaction. One of the most crucial yet often overlooked systems is grease trap maintenance. Effective grease trap management keeps plumbing clear, prevents blockages, and saves on costly repairs while also helping to reduce your environmental impact.

This environmental impact becomes even more apparent when improper disposal of used cooking oil (UCO), grease, and other organic materials occurs. When fats, oils, and grease (FOG) are poured down drains, they not only block plumbing but also contaminate water sources, causing significant environmental harm.

This white paper from Rubicon delves into the benefits of proper grease trap management, outlines best practices, and offers a comprehensive plan to help you implement effective preventative maintenance at your restaurant.
