Fat’s and Oils

Every bit of food, fat, oil, and grease that goes down the drain or garbage disposal increases the odds of a backup and has a detrimental effect on the wastewater stream. Scraping food, fats, oil, and grease from dishes, pots, and pans into the garbage instead of flushing them down the drain will help keep the wastewater process running smoothly.
