Grease Trap Treatment

Beneath this drain is a grease trap that needs regular cleaning.

Picture an army of friendly bacteria gobbling up grease inside your kitchen sink's drainage system. That's how biodegradable cleaners work to remove the buildup of food wastes in your grease trap. They are non-toxic and simple to use.

Function

Specialized bacteria multiply and eat the waste build-up in your grease trap.

Environmentally safe grease trap cleaners contain enzymes and specialized strains of bacteria that eat and digest biodegradable wastes that have built up in your grease trap. The enzymes break down the solids and the bacteria multiply quickly to eat grease, fat, oil, hair, soap film, paper and food particles.

Types

Environmentally safe grease trap cleaners remove foul odors along with food wastes.

There are many environmentally safe grease trap cleaners available on the market. All contain a combination of enzymes and friendly bacteria. They are non-corrosive, and do not produce heat or fumes when mixed with water. You can find grease trap cleaners on the Internet or at your local hardware store.

Time Frame

Most makers of non-toxic organic grease trap cleaners recommend using their products once a week to keep your sink's drainage system running smoothly.
