Are fats, oils and grease a problem?
Yes. Fats, oils and grease (FOG) cause serious problems in the sewer system pipes. It sticks to the sewer pipe walls and restricts the wastewater flow, which can cause blockages that could result in sewer overflows. This requires pipes to be cleaned more frequently and may cause some pipes to be replaced sooner than expected. Clogs and overflows can create smelly, dirty messes – possibly damaging your business, property, profits, as well as the environment.
