Fats, oils and grease go down the drain as liquid and cool into solid layers on the pipe wall. Over time those layers narrow the line until it blocks — usually at the busiest moment.
Daily habits that help
Scrape plates into the bin, use strainers, and keep grease interceptors maintained on schedule.
Why jetting works
Hydro-jetting removes grease from the full circumference of the pipe, rather than just punching a hole through the blockage.
Set a schedule
After a first cleaning, we recommend an interval based on what we find. Planned maintenance is cheaper than an emergency during service.
