Grease Trap
Definition: Plumbing device that intercepts fats, oils, and grease before wastewater enters the sewer.
Grease traps (interceptor tanks) are required for most commercial kitchens to protect municipal sewers. Sizing depends on fixture units and menu grease load; fry-heavy concepts need larger interceptors.
Maintenance includes regular pumping and logs; neglect causes backups and fines. Second-generation spaces may have traps that require upgrade when menu grease increases.
Trap location affects layout and concrete work during build-out; coordinate with plumbers early.
