Grease Interceptor Services in Temecula
Installation • Cleaning • Repair • Compliance
If your restaurant or commercial kitchen in Temecula is dealing with frequent drain clogs, foul odors, or notices from health inspectors, the culprit is likely built-up fats, oils, and grease (FOG). Without proper separation and containment, these contaminants can wreak havoc on your plumbing and violate local regulations. At Prestige Plumbing, we specialize in full-service grease interceptor installation, pumping, and maintenance in Temecula, helping local food-service businesses stay compliant, clean, and clog-free.

Why Grease Interceptors Are Essential in Temecula
1. City & County Code Compliance
Temecula businesses must meet Riverside County Environmental Health requirements for FOG control. Any high-volume kitchen—especially those discharging over 50 gallons per minute—needs an exterior grease interceptor.
2. Protect Your Plumbing
Over time, grease hardens and narrows your pipes. A properly sized, regularly maintained interceptor prevents kitchen backups and costly emergencies.
3. Avoid Business Interruptions
Blocked drains or failed inspections can result in lost revenue and forced closures. Our preventive approach keeps your kitchen open and running.
Neglecting your grease interceptor can lead to:
-
Nasty odors
-
Sewer line blockages
-
Health code violations
-
Fines from local water agencies
Don’t let a simple maintenance issue turn into an expensive emergency. Our Temecula grease interceptor services are fast, reliable, and fully compliant with Riverside County health and wastewater regulations.

What Is a Grease Interceptor?
A grease interceptor is a large, underground tank typically installed outside of commercial buildings to capture fats, oils, and grease (FOG) before they enter the public sewer system. In Temecula, where health codes and city regulations are enforced to protect the wastewater infrastructure, grease interceptors are a must for high-volume food service establishments. As wastewater flows from dishwashers, sinks, and kitchen drains, the interceptor slows the flow and allows grease and solids to separate—helping you avoid costly plumbing backups and city violations.
Unlike a smaller indoor grease trap, which is ideal for low-volume kitchens, a grease interceptor is designed for Temecula’s busier restaurants, cafes, commercial kitchens, and institutional cafeterias. If you operate a food service business in Temecula, having a properly sized and maintained grease interceptor isn’t just smart—it’s often required. At Prestige Plumbing, we provide professional grease interceptor installation, cleaning, and maintenance services to keep your operation compliant and running smoothly.

Slow drains, strong sewer odors, or backups in floor sinks are signs your interceptor is full or clogged. Schedule immediate pumping to prevent shutdowns.
