Grease traps/food & oil interceptors Mornington Peninsula

Grease Trap Installation

Our industry-leading plumbing company, which has been around for about 30 years now, has installed over 200 above- & below-ground grease traps (now popularly referred to as ‘Food & Oil Interceptors’).  Food & Oil interceptors are used to capture the grease from kitchens and any areas used for the preparation & serving of food. The tanks come in many different sizes and can even be custom-built in tight spaces. The local sewer and water authorities (Southeast Water/Melbourne Water) issue ‘Trade Waste Agreements’ and determine the tank size required. They may also determine the required amount of ongoing plumbing maintenance on the Mornington Peninsula.

Grease trap FAQs

To put it simply, a grease trap is a receptacle into which wastewater containing all sorts of unfriendly substances can end up. The trap will collect these substances before they can cause any damage and allow the clear water to escape.

A grease trap is a device, which can vary in size and specification if you use an experienced plumber like us, that is typically used to remove oil and grease from the water that flows into your wastewater management system. They use a simple filtration design to ensure that grease, fat, and oil are separated from the water that flows into your premises’ drain system. 

Only a professional can handle this to the highest quality standard. Just as you would rely on a licensed gas plumber to handle your gas system, you should only rely on an experienced grease trap cleaner to do a good job of it. Cleanings should be performed every one to three months depending on your unique usage of the trap. 

 The average installation for a small grease trap for a commercial setting can be a couple of hundred dollars but that can change based on the specifications you may need for your installation. One thing we can guarantee is that Barnes Plumbing will give you a highly competitive rate because we’re a veteran age plumber and we’re not just chasing money. Our priority is relationships with our clients.
