What is a Grease Trap?
A grease trap, also known as a grease interceptor, is a plumbing device designed to intercept most greases and solids before they enter a wastewater disposal system. Typically used in commercial kitchens and food service establishments, grease traps prevent fats, oils, and grease (FOG) from clogging the plumbing system and causing backups or overflows.
How Do Grease Traps Work?
Grease traps slow the wastewater flow, allowing the fats, oils, and grease to cool and solidify. The solidified FOG then floats to the top of the trap while the heavier food particles settle at the bottom. The remaining wastewater exits the trap through an outlet pipe, leaving the FOG and solids behind.

Ryan worked really hard and was lovely to deal with.Naomi Nightshade
We had a thorny issue with a blockage in the drain stack from our upstairs bathrooms. Jamar, the tech who came out to help us, was friendly and explained every step of the process to us. He worked tenaciously to give us the most cost-effective solution, and succeeded in clearing the issue even though it took several hours. Highly recommend!Michael Harnish
Same day appointment—identified blockage and resolved within 45 minutes. Tested drainage and ensured all my questions were answered. Jeff was professional, courteous, and knowledgeable to help us prevent future clogged drains.Tay
My experiences with Zoom Drain have been great. But Ryan was exceptional; he went above and beyond to save us from excavation. I expected good work from your company, but Ryan exceeded my expectations.Mary Kay Bond
Company sent Josh out to possibly sewer jet a greased-up kitchen sink drain in a mobile home I just purchased. Quoted me company price, which was very competitive. Due to the sewer pipe layout of this home, I elected to reroute the kitchen drain and tie it in closer to the sanitary line exit. Josh made the appointment for me. Very happy with his help and professionalism.Joe Marchozzi
Lawrence was the most polite, respectful, and knowledgeable technician that we have ever had to our home. I wish we could always be this fortunate. Zoom was recommended by our new HVAC company.Anonymous
Anthony was fantastic to work with. Communication was great and he worked hard to troubleshoot a main sewer drain clog. Unfortunately, the Zoom jet clean and snake was not powerful enough to clear whatever blockage exists. Now I need to investigate having the trap dug up and replaced and we still don’t know where the clog is. Definitely not Anthony’s fault, but still frustrating nonetheless.Darrin Uhl
Excellent service. Resolved my issue and provided good, clear information. Tech was great. Thank you.Mike Daly
Lawrence was prompt, professional and knowledgeable today. Assessing the problem, he was able to get the pipes cleared at the plaza where our business is located rather quickly. Highly recommend.Lori Angstadt
He saw the water marks on the cement patch around the pipe and thought it might be ground water. Before he left, he checked the flow of the pipe and found it to be clogged and used a snake to clear it. He said it was more than toilet paper, maybe the size of a wipe. We never flush wipes, but something got down there. He was very nice.Dolores Gleason
Once again, Anthony saved the day! I highly recommend Zoom Drain. They are reliable, professional, and reasonably priced given they are an "emergency" service!Edward Riegl
Very responsive to an emergency at night on a holiday weekend. Tony was very efficient and friendly. He explained the problem and what he was going to do to correct it. Everything was back to normal in half an hour! Thank you!Cherri R.
Hi, this is Andrew Vandegriff. I just am so impressed with Tyree. He was so nice and polite and intelligent in his field of work. You just don’t have that much politeness and niceness in people anymore. I would suggest that anyone who needs work with their septic call Zoom and ask for Tyree; he’s number one in my book. Thank you for having him on your team. Thanks again, Tyree; you are the best!!!Andrew Vandegriff
Knowledgeable, courteous, and showed me what he was doing each step of the way. He was efficient and took care of the septic issue quickly. You can't ask for better.Christopher Miller
Lawrence was awesome. He took the time to explain everything in detail. He even showed us what was on the cameras he ran through the lines. Could not ask for more.Laura Machion
Zoom Drain came out the same day I called, quickly repaired my toilet, and were reasonably priced. The guys were friendly, professional, and efficient—thanks again!!Julie Weigand
