Knowledgebase on Grease Interceptor Cleaning Service for Restaurant

Grease Interceptor vs Grease Trap

Grease interceptors and grease traps are similar devices, designed to capture fats, oils, and grease before they enter the sewer system, and in many cases, they serve similar kitchen connections such as sinks, dishwashers, and cooking lines. The key difference is not what they handle, but how much they are built to handle. Grease traps are smaller units, typically installed close to kitchen fixtures, and are designed for lower-volume flow within a more limited space. Grease interceptors, on the other hand, are larger in-ground systems, typically built underground that manage wastewater from an entire facility, making them more suitable for high-output restaurants and commercial operations across Los Angeles.

Because of this difference in capacity, grease interceptors are built to handle continuous, high-volume discharge throughout the day. They receive flow from multiple kitchen areas at once, which places a greater load on the system over time. As a result, their upkeep is approached with a focus on maintaining balance within the tank, managing accumulated waste, and ensuring the system continues to perform efficiently.

Understanding 25% Rule of Grease Interceptor Cleaning

The 25% rule is a widely followed guideline used to determine when a grease interceptor cleaning service is required. It states that when the combined volume of fats, oils, grease, and settled solids reaches 25% of the interceptor’s total FOGS holding capacity, the system should be serviced immediately. Beyond this point, the interceptor becomes less effective at separating grease from wastewater, allowing more contaminants to pass through into the sewer system. In a busy commercial kitchen, reaching this threshold can happen faster than expected due to continuous usage and heavier grease output. Regular monitoring and scheduled grease interceptor pumping help prevent the system from exceeding this limit. Following the 25% rule not only maintains system performance but also supports compliance with local wastewater standards imposed by the LA County Public Works Department. Staying within this limit reduces the risk of drain overflow, sewer backups, improves efficiency, and helps restaurant owners avoid costly plumbing issues related to system failure.
