Why Regular Grease Trap Cleaning is Critical for Edmonton Restaurants
Running a restaurant in Edmonton means staying on top of many moving parts—but one thing you can’t afford to overlook is regular grease trap cleaning. A neglected grease trap can cause more than bad odors; it can lead to blocked drains, expensive plumbing repairs, health code violations, and even fines for non-compliance with city regulations.
At City Grease Trap Services, we specialize in helping restaurants and commercial kitchens across Edmonton stay compliant, clean, and clog-free with scheduled grease trap cleaning, emergency pumping, and plumbing maintenance.
What Happens When You Don’t Clean Your Grease Trap?
Grease traps are designed to capture fats, oils, and grease (FOG) before they enter your plumbing system. Over time, these materials build up and create blockages that can:
Slow or completely clog your drains
Cause backups in sinks and dishwashers
Produce foul odors in your kitchen
Lead to costly downtime and emergency service calls
Worst of all, neglecting your grease trap could lead to fines from the City of Edmonton or even temporary closure for health code violations.

How Often Should You Clean Your Grease Trap?
The answer depends on how much FOG your kitchen produces, but most Edmonton restaurants benefit from monthly or bi-monthly grease trap cleanings. Our team offers custom maintenance plans to fit your needs and prevent problems before they start.
