In commercial kitchens, a reoccurring problem is water leaks within pot wash drain lines. With hot oil, grease and food waste continually passing through drain pipe lines on a daily basis, the PVC cement can break down pipes/valves. Pipes can become blocked or corroded, or result in complete detachment of the joints.
These problems can dramatically reduce a kitchen’s working activities or bring all equipment to a grinding halt, resulting not only in extensive repair costs and reduced output, but also potential hygiene and environmental issues.
