Overview
The Endura 20 Gallon Grease Trap (GT20) is a commercial grade grease interceptor designed to capture fats oils and grease before they enter your plumbing system. Built for busy kitchens and food service operations, this 20 gallon grease trap helps reduce drain clogs, supports code compliant kitchen waste management, and keeps maintenance predictable in restaurants, cafés, cafeterias, and catering facilities where grease load is consistent.
With a capacity suited for light to medium duty applications, the GT20 grease trap is a practical choice for under sink or nearby installation where space and serviceability matter. Choosing a properly sized Endura grease trap helps protect pipes, minimizes emergency plumbing calls, and supports cleaner downstream lines by separating grease from wastewater more effectively during daily operation.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the Endura GT20 grease trap used for?
The GT20 is used to separate fats oils and grease from kitchen wastewater before it enters the plumbing system. This helps prevent grease buildup in pipes and reduces the likelihood of blockages in commercial kitchens. - Is a 20 gallon grease trap the right size for my kitchen?
A 20 gallon grease trap is commonly selected for smaller restaurants, cafés, and prep areas with moderate flow and grease output. Final sizing should be based on fixture flow rate, local code requirements, and the type of food service operation. - Where is a grease trap like the GT20 typically installed?
It is often installed close to the source, such as under a sink or in a nearby accessible location on the kitchen waste line. Proper accessibility is important for routine inspection and clean out. - How often should the GT20 be cleaned out?
Cleaning frequency depends on usage and grease volume, but many operations service grease traps on a scheduled interval to prevent carryover. A common best practice is to clean when the combined grease and solids reach a significant portion of the trap capacity. - Will this grease trap help with slow drains and recurring clogs?
Yes, when correctly sized and maintained, a grease trap reduces grease entering the drain line, which is a frequent cause of slow drains and repeat clogs in food service plumbing.
