The drain lines and grease traps in your kitchen, food preparation or processing areas are designed to flow at a specific rate. During daily use, grease and other organic matter build up on the sides of those pipes, reducing their flow. Even a brand-new drain system can develop problems in just a few months to the extent that Flow rates are reduced by one-half or more!

For example, as little as a one-half-inch buildup on the inside diameter of a four-inch or larger sewer line can cut the flow rate by about 5O%. As more waste is deposited on the walls of the line, the flow rate is reduced further-until a total blockage occurs. Sure, you can clean the pipes-but as soon as you're done, grease and waste begin building up again. Preventive maintenance is the key to smooth running drains within any business. Don't wait for an emergency to happen or smelly drains to offend your patrons. A small investment now can save you money in the long run.
