What is Household Grease? Household Grease is
more commonly referred to as Fats Oils Grease
or F.O.G.
FOG from Restaurants and Residential homes are
common causes of sewer backups.
3
FOG from left over food, meat fat, cooking oil,
baking ingredients, heavy sauces, and dairy
products are released by kitchens without grease
interceptors or other grease control measures.
FOG gets into the plumbing drain system and
builds up inside our pipes. Eventually, the
buildup blocks the entire pipe, causing sewage
backups and overflows.
