Why Winter Demands Extra Attention to Oil Trap Cleaning at Car Wash Bays

Winter months bring unique challenges to car wash operations. It’s not just frozen pipes or icy work surfaces; oil trap maintenance becomes a silent but serious concern.

Oil traps (also known as oil interceptors) are critical components of any car wash bay. They separate and collect oil, fuel residues, and sludge from wastewater before it enters the municipal drainage system. In colder weather, these contaminants harden faster, increasing the risk of blockages, overflows, and costly emergency call-outs.

Neglecting oil trap cleaning in winter can disrupt your business at exactly the time when uptime is critical.
