Professional Hydro Jetting Service for Commercial Kitchens
Running a busy kitchen means dealing with a significant amount of cooking oil, whether it’s used in fryers or various dishes. This usage inevitably leads to the production of used cooking oil (UCO) and a buildup of fats, oils, and grease (FOG). These byproducts are not only harmful to the environment but also require proper disposal and recycling. Responsible restaurants typically install grease traps and use designated containers to manage this waste effectively.
However, it’s not uncommon for residual cooking oil, grease, or fats to find their way into kitchen lines. This can lead to clogged drains, damaged pipelines, and potentially costly damage to your restaurant. Beyond the operational impact, neglecting proper disposal practices can also result in environmental harm and potential legal issues.
Maintaining clean drains in your restaurant is essential to avoid penalties or even closure by health regulatory authorities for non-compliance with health standards. To keep your commercial kitchen running smoothly, it’s crucial to install and regularly maintain grease traps and partner with a professional service for UCO collection. By staying on top of these practices, you’ll ensure a clean, compliant, and efficient kitchen environment. Call us today!

What is Hydro Jetting and Why is it important for my Restaurant?
As a restaurant or kitchen owner, dealing with grease trap drain issues can be a major headache. Fortunately, hydro jetting offers a powerful solution to keep your drains clear and your operations running smoothly. Grease traps are essential in restaurants, capturing fats, oils, and other substances that could cause serious plumbing problems if allowed to enter the pipes directly. However, over time, these traps can become clogged, leading to backups and overflows. That’s where hydro jetting comes into play.
Hydro jetting utilizes high-pressure water to thoroughly clean out your drains, ensuring they are free-flowing once again. This method offers several benefits, including minimal disruption to your daily operations and the absence of messy chemicals or intrusive equipment.
Why Choose Hydro Jetting?
Hydro jetting is a highly effective process that uses pressurized water to remove stubborn blockages from pipes. The intense force of the water blasts away grease, dirt, and debris, which are then flushed out, leaving your drains clean and clear. It’s particularly useful in commercial kitchens where grease trap drains can quickly become clogged, providing a fast and efficient solution.
Exceptional Cleaning Power
Jetting provides a thorough cleaning of your kitchen drain lines, making it a cost-effective and non-invasive option. This service doesn’t rely on chemicals, so when you call a hydro jetting professional, they can quickly handle the job without causing any disruptions. If you’re struggling with grease trap drain issues, hydro jetting might be the solution you’ve been searching for.
Environmentally Friendly and Chemical-Free
One of the key advantages of hydro jetting is that it’s 100% environmentally friendly, using only high-pressure water to achieve its cleaning power. There’s no need for harsh chemicals or detergents, making it a safe and sustainable choice for your business.
No Need for Excavation
Unlike traditional methods that may require digging or extensive excavation, hydro jetting can remove clogs from all types of drains, including those in grease traps, without any digging. This makes it an ideal option for restaurants looking to avoid the mess and disruption of more invasive plumbing work. With hydro jetting, you can address grease trap drain issues efficiently and effectively, all while keeping your kitchen running smoothly.
Lasting Results
One of the most impressive aspects of hydro jetting is its ability to clear years’ worth of debris in just minutes. The superior cleaning action ensures that your drains remain clear, provided you continue proper practices like avoiding pouring oil down the drains and disposing of used cooking oil responsibly. With hydro jetting, you’re investing in a long-term solution that can keep your kitchen’s plumbing in top condition.

Hydro Jetting or Snaking: Which Solution is Right for You?
The choice between hydro jetting and snaking depends on factors such as the age of your facility, the level of preventative maintenance, and the type of drainage system in place. Hydro jetting involves the use of high-pressure water to thoroughly clean pipes and drains, effectively removing grease, debris, and even mineral deposits, which helps prevent clogs and eliminates odors.
In contrast, snaking uses a cable or wire inserted into the pipe to break up or scrape away blockages. However, snaking is limited to certain types of pipes, whereas hydro jetting is versatile enough to be used on any type of drain.
When it comes to clearing grease trap drains, hydro jetting stands out as the superior option. Unlike snaking, which might require multiple attempts to fully resolve the issue, hydro jetting delivers powerful water pressure—up to ten times stronger than a standard garden hose—ensuring that even the most stubborn clogs are cleared in a single session.
Why Grease Traps Alone Aren’t Sufficient
Maintaining a clean kitchen is absolutely vital for the success and safety of any restaurant or commercial kitchen. A spotless kitchen not only ensures a smooth operation but also upholds the standards that keep your business in compliance with health regulations. Neglecting cleanliness can lead to a host of issues, from operational disruptions to severe health risks, all of which can tarnish your reputation and affect your bottom line.
For those operating in environments with a grease trap, its proper maintenance is particularly crucial. Grease traps play a key role in capturing oils, fats, and food scraps that would otherwise clog your drainage system. By effectively trapping these materials, they prevent them from entering the wastewater system, where they could cause significant damage.
However, the effectiveness of a grease trap is entirely dependent on regular maintenance. Without it, grease traps can become clogged, leading to a range of problems. When grease traps are neglected, they can cause backups in your drainage system, making it difficult to maintain adequate water flow for essential tasks like food preparation. Even more concerning, improper maintenance can allow harmful sewer gases to escape into your kitchen, dining areas, or restrooms, creating hazardous conditions for both staff and customers.
The repercussions of a poorly maintained grease trap can be severe. Beyond the immediate inconvenience and potential safety hazards, these issues can lead to costly repairs, fines from health authorities, and damage to your restaurant’s reputation. To avoid these pitfalls, it’s essential to invest in regular grease trap cleaning and maintenance services. Partnering with a reliable service provider ensures that your grease traps are functioning properly, preventing clogs, ensuring smooth kitchen operations, and protecting your business from avoidable risks.
By prioritizing the cleanliness and maintenance of your kitchen, especially your grease traps, you not only enhance the efficiency and safety of your operations but also secure the long-term success of your business.
