Grease interceptor pump-out
Every 3 monthsThe underground tank that catches kitchen grease has to be pumped before it clogs the sewer. How often is set by your city's FOG ordinance and printed on your permit — set yours in Settings and this date follows it. Until then this is a placeholder of every three months, not a legal deadline.
- Code reference
- Set by your local sewer authority — no single interval applies statewide
- Who may perform it
- Permitted grease hauler
No authority having jurisdiction sets this date — it is a manufacturer or good-practice interval, and we say so rather than inventing a deadline.
Muniment tracks every one of these for you.
Add a grease interceptor to a building and its schedule appears — dated, cited, and chased before it lapses. The record is yours, exportable, and it outlives whichever contractor does the work.
