Re: Any reason to keep grease trap?
I worked on a condo unit once, that, when built, lacked the required "central" collection grease trap. The builders answer to the violation, was to install individual grease traps in each unit.
The comment that the individual grease traps are not maintained, is absolutely dead on. The only time those things got any attention was after back-ups started occuring.
Ross..... If you are religious at all.... Thank God that you were unable to remove the lid.
As a volunteer EMT for 20 years I came across a lot of "ODORS" but, nothing comes close to the stench of a grease trap.
Had you been able to open it, the unit would not have been habitable for days.
