To maintain a healthy grease trap and prevent premature clogs, you should strictly avoid pouring massive quantities of pure cooking oil, heavy grease, coffee grounds, large food scraps from garbage disposals, harsh chemical drain cleaners, strong bleach, or high concentrations of antibacterial solvents down the connected drains. While grease traps are built to capture oils, overloading them with raw cooking oil overwhelms their capacity, and harsh chemicals kill the beneficial bacterial cultures required to break down organic matter inside the interceptor.
