Just some quick tips to help prevent loss of income due to kitchen flooding and reduce emergency call outs.
Our vacuum truck operators see this time and time again when they are called out to do an emergency grease trap pump out, or emergency grease trap arrestor cleaning around Adelaide.
Looking at the first picture you can see that smelly, greasy and oily water from the kitchen is flowing out onto the restaurant walkway. This is all taking place during the restaurant’s prime time for service. The patrons of the restaurant complained of foul odours and leaking sewerage.
An emergency call was made to our office and a Nitschke Liquid Waste vacuum tanker was dispatched to perform an emergency grease trap pump out.

The last picture shows that our grease trap pumping and cleaning service not only cleans your grease arrestor but also fully cleans and degreases your grease trap filter.
The report from our grease trap cleaning technician, was that Lid, trap and grease trap were all in good working order. It was suggested that the twice yearly service be increased to a scheduled quarterly grease trap clean to reduce the chance of flooding.
