Oklahoma City Grease Trap Repair and Replacement

Keep Your Kitchen Operational with Reliable Grease Trap Services in Oklahoma County

Grease traps are vital in maintaining the plumbing integrity of commercial kitchens by intercepting fats, oils, and grease (FOG) before they can enter the plumbing system. Restaurants, cafeterias, and other food service establishments produce large amounts of grease that, if not properly managed, can clog pipes and lead to major plumbing issues. A well-functioning grease trap keeps your drainage system free of these problematic materials, helping prevent slow drains, significant backups, and health issues.

However, grease traps are not immune to problems. Over time, grease can solidify and cause blockages in the trap, reducing its effectiveness. If left unchecked, this can lead to backups in your kitchen, foul odors, and even unsanitary conditions. These issues can negatively impact your business, lead to health code violations, and require emergency plumbing services that can be disruptive and expensive. Keeping your grease trap in optimal working condition is essential to avoid such scenarios. This action involves timely repairs and replacements when necessary.

What Is a Grease Trap?

A grease trap, also known as a grease interceptor, is designed to capture fats, oils, and grease before they can enter the sewer system. These substances are byproducts of daily kitchen activities. Grease traps work by slowing down wastewater flow, allowing FOG to rise to the top, where it is captured while the cleaner water continues to flow through the system. If left unchecked, FOG can build up in pipes, causing clogs, backups, and even severe damage to your plumbing infrastructure.

Commercial kitchens typically use one of two main types of grease traps, each with unique features to suit various kitchen needs:

Passive interceptors. These are installed directly in the kitchen, usually under the sink. They collect grease as it rises to the top of a baffled tank, allowing only cleaner water to move through to the plumbing system.
Automatic grease removal units. These are more advanced systems that automatically remove captured grease at scheduled intervals. This process helps maintain consistent functionality without requiring as much manual intervention.

Thanks guys!
“Just wanted to share my excellent experience with Hull Plumbing and their stellar technician Anthony M. Purchasing a home built in the 1960's can be stressful. I wanted to know what was lurking under the ground, so I picked Hull and gave them a call. Later that same day Anthony called and was on the spot exactly when he stated he would be. We spoke about my concerns, and I asked if he would take a quick look around the house and its fixtures before starting to send the camera down the sewer line. He happily obliged and then started the imaging. It was a long line and he took the time to point out the areas of concern and to describe what he thought it would be as a future problem. When he finished the job he gave me the video and made certain I was completely satisfied. Great job! I would just like to say that I have hired literally hundreds of folks over the years. It is one in a hundred that has the forward looking positive outlook shown by technician Anthony. If you are looking for a company to hire for your plumbing needs I can whole heartedly recommend Hull. If they have a crew of technicians with the attitudes, skill and drive show by Anthony then they will certainly get the job done for you. Thanks guys!”

- Cindy S.

Professional Grease Trap Replacement Services

Although repairs can often address grease trap issues, a replacement may be the more effective and long-term solution in some situations.

Common reasons to consider replacing your grease trap include:

Age of the grease trap. An aging grease trap may not perform at its best, even with repairs, making replacement the better option to avoid frequent breakdowns and maintain system efficiency.
Severe damage. If your grease trap has sustained significant damage, such as cracked components or corroded parts, repairs may no longer be sufficient. In such cases, replacing the entire system keeps your kitchen’s plumbing safe, functional, and compliant with health codes.
Size mismatch. A grease trap too small for your kitchen’s needs can lead to constant clogs, overflows, and inefficiency. Replacing it with a suitably sized grease trap will enhance performance and reduce the need for frequent maintenance and repair.

We make grease trap replacements as seamless as possible. Our team assesses the extent of the damage or inefficiency to fully understand the problem before making suggestions. After evaluating your system, we will provide personalized recommendations, including the appropriate size and type of grease trap for your business. Once you’ve chosen a replacement, our plumbers will handle the installation from start to finish.

Signs Your Grease Trap Needs Repair or Replacement
