Grease digester helps keep drainline clear

Problem - The owner of a Menasha, Wisconsin, restaurant was dealing with his system backing up into the three-compartment sink every five weeks. The drainline would plug up and the restaurant would have to close early to clean up the foul smelling mess. This resulted in a loss of business, and sanitary conditions in the restaurant were compromised.   

Solution - Speedy Clean Drain and Sewer completed a thorough cleaning of the 50-gallon indoor grease trap. They installed one Trap-Cleer dosing pump injection system into the mainline located under the three-compartment sink feeding into the grease trap. Liquid Trap-Cleer was dosed in at 2 ounces per evening. It is designed to keep the system flowing properly and consume much of the grease, extending the time between clean-outs and servicing.

Result - Several months later, the system continued to operate normally. Only a small amount of grease built up in the trap. The restaurant hasn’t shut down and the smells disappeared. The trap finally needed pumping after eight months of operation. Because cleaning the system out when the level of grease reached one-third full was recommended, a schedule to have it cleaned every four months was established. 800/223-3083; www.lenzyme.com.
