Frequently Asked Questions


  • Why do ventilation systems need a regular deep cleaning?

    Cooking in commercial kitchens generates airborne grease, carbon and steam, which can condense on the inner walls of kitchen ventilation duct work. These deposits can build up, reducing airflow, creating foul odours and become a fire hazard.

    The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 stipulates that by law, the person responsible for the business premise must carry out a fire risk assessment and implement and maintain a fire management plan. Putting in place regular kitchen duct and ventilation cleaning will help satisfy this requirement and help reduce the risk of fire.

    The Building & Engineering Services Association (B&ES) TR19 guidelines provide recommendations for the maintenance and monitoring of regular cleaning of kitchen extraction systems. Many insurance companies now stipulate that kitchen ventilation must be cleaned and maintained according to TR19 standards within their policies.

Grease Trap Cleaning and Drain Blockage Prevention

Grease traps play a vital role in any commercial kitchen or food processing plant, helping to prevent harmful greases, fats and oils from entering the drainage systems.

We offer a safe grease trap waste disposal solution and innovative drain blockage prevention with our bio-dosing technology.

Grease Trap and Drain Blockage Prevention Frequently Asked Questions


  • What is the importance of a grease trap?

    Grease traps are a vital part of any commercial kitchen or food processing plant, helping to ensure harmful greases, fats and oils are captured and prevented from entering the drainage system where they could cause potentially damaging blockages also known as fatbergs.  

    Grease can build up very quickly inside grease traps making them ineffective. The accumulation of the grease can also make it very difficult to dispose of and become a source of unpleasant odours.


  • Is grease trap waste controlled waste?

    Yes, waste from grease traps is classified as a controlled waste. The Environment Agency or an Environmental Health Officer is required to see evidence that regular cleaning of the grease trap has been performed and any waste that has been removed is disposed of by a registered waste carrier.


  • How do you prevent drain blockages and fatbergs?

    Drain blockages or fatbergs are caused by a buildup of grease, fats and oils entering the drainage system.

    Rentokil Specialist Hygiene’s biological dosing service periodically feeds kitchen drain pipes and grease traps with a biological solution containing environmentally controlled bacteria, which safety breaks down the grease and prevents a build up from occurring.

Do you meet Hygiene Standards?

The network of Food Hygiene regulations can be complex and demanding in order to ensure the safety of consumers. Rentokil Specialist Hygiene offers a reporting and certification service to help your business regularly meet Food Safety regulations and waste management documentation.
