Objective: Grease interceptor cleaning is essential for maintaining proper functioning, preventing blockages, and ensuring compliance with environmental regulations.
Process:
- Preliminary Inspection:
- Assess the condition of the grease interceptor and surrounding area.
- Identify any signs of grease buildup or blockages.
- Pump-Out:
- Remove accumulated grease, oil, and solids from the interceptor using specialized pumping equipment.
- Ensure thorough extraction to prevent future issues.
- Scraping and Cleaning:
- Use scrapers and brushes to dislodge hardened grease and debris from the interceptor walls and components.
- Rinse thoroughly to remove loosened particles.
- High-Pressure Washing:
- Utilize high-pressure water jets to clean the interceptor interior effectively.
- Target hard-to-reach areas and ensure complete removal of residue.
- Inspection and Maintenance:
- Check for any damage or corrosion to the interceptor structure.
- Replace worn-out components if necessary to maintain optimal functionality.
