FOG is an infrastructure problem

Fats, oils, and grease can cool and collect inside plumbing and sewer systems, contributing to blockages, overflows, maintenance costs, and operational interruptions.

The system must match the operation

A grease-control device performs best when its type, size, flow conditions, access, and maintenance plan fit the actual kitchen. Engineering and installation decisions directly affect long-term performance.

Compliance continues after installation

Approvals and inspections are only part of the lifecycle. Owners and operators should maintain records, follow required cleaning schedules, and respond quickly when equipment or operating conditions change.
