Grease Interceptor Cleaning Services

Grease interceptors are the backbone of a clean and compliant kitchen. They keep wastewater systems clear and prevent costly plumbing issues. At JG3 Services, LLC in San Antonio, TX, we specialize in thorough grease interceptor cleaning that meets health and safety standards. Call 210-758-3177 today to schedule your service.

Why Grease Interceptor Cleaning Matters

Every commercial kitchen produces fats, oils, and grease. These substances can clog pipes and damage sewer systems if not managed properly. A grease interceptor acts as a barrier, capturing these materials before they cause problems.



Regular cleaning is not optional—it’s required by health codes and essential for smooth operations. Neglecting this step can lead to foul odors, plumbing emergencies, and even fines. Our service ensures your interceptor works efficiently and keeps your business compliant.

Understanding Grease Interceptors

A grease interceptor is a large tank installed underground or inside a facility. It slows down wastewater flow, allowing grease and solids to separate from water. Over time, these materials accumulate and reduce capacity.

If the interceptor is not cleaned, grease can overflow into pipes, causing blockages and backups. This is why cleaning every 90 days—or more often for high-volume kitchens—is critical.

How Our Cleaning Process Works

We follow a proven process designed for maximum efficiency and compliance:

Step 1: Inspection

We start by checking the interceptor for buildup, damage, and proper flow.

Step 2: Pumping Out Waste

All grease, solids, and wastewater are removed completely.

Step 3: Deep Cleaning

Interior walls are scraped and cleaned to eliminate hardened deposits.

Step 4: System Check

We verify that everything flows correctly before we leave.

This method reduces the risk of backups and extends the life of your system.
