What Is a Grease Trap & Why Do You Need One?
A grease trap (also known as a grease interceptor) is a plumbing device that captures FOG before it enters the main sewer line. Over time, FOG buildup can restrict water flow and create major blockages—not to mention serious health code violations.
Installing a properly sized and positioned grease trap is not just best practice—it’s required by law for most Houston-area food service businesses.
