Commercial kitchen drain odors are a common frustration in the dish room. One possible cause is a dry trap that allows sewer gas smells to come back through the drain. Trap primers can help keep water in the trap, but odor prevention also depends on keeping food solids, grease, and organic buildup out of your drain system.

A recent television news story from a village in New York State is a stark reminder that commercial kitchen grease traps clogs can quickly become bigger than a back-of-house maintenance issue. When fats, oils, grease, and food debris make their way into drains, grease traps, storm sewers, or municipal sewer lines, the consequences can affect the restaurant, the local municipality, nearby waterways, and the surrounding community and lead to bad publicity for your business.

The Drain Strainer cuts down on the amount of solids entering your plumbing, which reduces the risk of grease trap clogs and bad publicity.
