How does a grease trap work?
- Grease traps work by capturing absolutely everything that goes through the drain (this includes water, grease and other solid and liquid matter).
- Traps have two separation basins, the first basin fills with all the matter that is drained from the sink, the matter then cools. When grease is cooled, it congeals, becoming a solid.
- Both the solid matter and the congealed grease float to the top, leaving the liquid at the bottom of the first basin.
- Towards the bottom of the first basin is a tube that allows all liquid matter to flow into the second basin.
- The second basin is used to trap any additional grease that may have gotten through the first basin, so the same process is repeated.
- The grease trap needs to be cleaned in order to work properly, and it is possible for the grease trap to become too full to function.
