Protecting Your Roof and Business: The Case for Grease Containment Systems

What Are Rooftop Grease Containment Systems?

Rooftop grease containment systems are specialized units designed to capture and absorb excess grease discharged from commercial kitchen exhaust systems. These systems typically include filters that allow water to pass through while trapping grease particles. Over time, filters become saturated and must be replaced to maintain effectiveness. Routine inspection and maintenance are essential to ensure proper function and prevent blockages, especially during heavy rainfall.

Why Rooftop Grease Containment Is Essential?

Rooftop grease containment systems are not optional—they are a critical component of a safe and compliant commercial kitchen. According to NFPA 96 standards, rooftop grease containment is required to prevent grease accumulation on rooftops, which can lead to fire hazards and structural damage. In addition to fire code compliance, these systems may be mandated by your insurance provider, lease agreement, or roof warranty.

Benefits of Rooftop Grease Containment Systems

Installing and maintaining a rooftop grease containment system offers several key benefits:

• Ensures compliance with NFPA 96 and local fire codes

• Reduces the risk of rooftop grease fires

• Prevents grease damage to roofing materials

• Supports insurance and warranty requirements

• Enhances overall kitchen safety and functionality
