2017 FBC - Plumbing, 6th edition > 10 Traps, Interceptors and Separators > 1003 Interceptors and Separators > 1003.5 Grease Interceptors for Onsite Sewage Treatment and Disposal Systems
JUMP TO FULL CODE CHAPTER
Grease interceptors are not required for a residence. However, one or more grease interceptors are required where grease waste is produced in quantities that could otherwise cause line stoppage or hinder sewage disposal. Where a grease interceptor is required or used, only kitchen wastewater shall first pass through the interceptor and then be discharged into the first compartment of a septic tank or other approved system. Grease interceptors shall be water tight. Each interceptor shall be engineered to withstand the load, such as from vehicular traffic, to be placed on the interceptor. Grease interceptors shall be sized, constructed and approved in accordance with Rule 64E-6, Florida Administrative Code.
