Commercial Grease Trap Installation and Cleaning for Restaurants
By Prologic Technologies
For restaurants, cafeterias, and commercial kitchens in Nairobi, maintaining a properly functioning grease trap is essential to prevent plumbing blockages, foul odors, and costly sewer backups. Grease traps capture fats, oils, and grease (FOG) before they enter the drainage system, ensuring compliance with Nairobi City Water and Sewerage Company (NCWSC) and National Environment Management Authority (NEMA) regulations.
At Prologic Technologies, we specialize in professional grease trap installation, cleaning, and maintenance to help food service businesses operate smoothly while avoiding fines and environmental violations.
What is a Grease Trap and Why is it Important?
A grease trap (or grease interceptor) is a plumbing device installed in commercial kitchens to separate FOG from wastewater before it enters the sewer system. Without a grease trap:
✔ Sewer lines clog, leading to backups and expensive repairs.
✔ Foul odors develop, affecting hygiene and customer experience.
✔ Environmental pollution occurs, risking fines from NEMA.
✔ Restaurant operations can be shut down for non-compliance.
Regular grease trap maintenance is mandatory under Kenyan sanitation laws to prevent blockages and protect public health.
Types of Grease Traps We Install
Depending on your kitchen’s size and wastewater output, we recommend the right grease trap:
1. Passive (Gravity) Grease Traps
✔ Best for small to medium-sized restaurants.
✔ Uses gravity to separate grease from water.
✔ Requires frequent manual cleaning.
2. Automatic Grease Removal Units (GRUs)
✔ Ideal for high-volume kitchens (hotels, large restaurants).
✔ Automatically skims and collects grease.
✔ Reduces maintenance frequency.
3. In-Ground Grease Interceptors
✔ Used for large commercial kitchens and food processing plants.
✔ Handles high-capacity grease waste.
✔ Requires professional pumping and cleaning.
