What Is A Plumber? Plumbers work with the various materials and fixtures used in installation, removal, maintenance, extension and alteration of a plumbing system. Plumbing systems include all sanitary drainage, storm drainage facilities, special wastes, vent systems, public or private water systems and gas piping within or adjacent to any building.

Program During the term of five (5) years, the apprentice will work 9000 hours of on-the-job training. You will also attend 1080 hours of related training classes.

To determine the appropriate grease trap size, calculate the total number of fixture units which will be connected to the trap. The following fixture unit counts shall be assigned to each different kind of fixture:

Greasetrap cleaning

Industrial Waste staff shall apply this grease trap sizing criteria in combination with best professional judgment as a part of the approval process. In many cases, a larger grease trap may be required than the one specified by the sizing criteria to adequately protect the City’s sanitary sewer and wastewater treatment plants. In rare circumstances, a smaller grease trap may be approved.

Determine the minimum flow rating of the grease trap by multiplying the total fixture unit count times three gallons/minute:

Benefits The benefits programs are jointly administered by a Board of Trustees consisting of members of U.A. Plumbers and Steamfitters and Contractor’s Associations. As an employee and union member you will be afforded excellent medical, dental and optical coverage as well as pension and supplemental pension plan benefits.

Commercial Food Preparation facilities which utilize a dishwasher must install a minimum 500-gallon (liquid holding capacity) grease interceptor. This provides the 7-minutes retention time required in grease interceptor compartment 1, and 5-minutes retention time in grease interceptor compartment 2, equaling the 12-minutes total. This also helps retain high temperatures within the grease interceptor until cooling and separation of spent FOG (Fats, Oil and Grease) can occur, along with solids settling to prevent discharging these materials into the sanitary sewer.

Additionally, grease traps/interceptors less than 100 gallons (minimum liquid holding capacity) will not be approved for installation.

Do not purchase a grease trap/interceptor without obtaining a building plan approval including an Industrial Waste approval letter specifying the size and design of the interceptor that will be required. Purchasing an interceptor prior to Industrial Waste approval exposes the purchaser to risk of rejection and replacement costs.

Calculate the minimum liquid holding capacity of the trap by multiplying the grease trap flow rating (in gallons per minutes) times twelve minutes:

Disclaimer: Building Plans vary greatly from one project to another. Please keep in mind that the information above is applicable to most, but not all projects. Additionally, the information above is not intended to, and may not cover every situation, especially for unique or highly complicated projects.

All fixtures with the potential to carry grease-bearing wastewater or solids shall be plumbed to the grease trap/interceptor.

Grease traps/interceptors less than 100 gallons (minimum liquid holding capacity) will not be approved for installation.
