Understanding the costs associated with GreaseCare helps business owners make informed decisions about their grease containment system. Here’s a breakdown of what goes into the cost of maintaining a reliable system.
The cost of maintaining a grease containment system includes:
Cost of the truck
Labor for uninstalling the existing containment system
Labor for installing a new RoofingSource containment system
Cost of new RoofingSource trays
Grease absorbent media
Future services to maintain the trays and replace the pillows
Expensive containment equipment is only as good as the service in place. The success of a grease containment system depends more on service than on equipment. Poor equipment can still function with great service, but poor service cannot be fixed by great equipment.
Success in grease containment is a combination of the right equipment and proper service. Before investing in a system, it is important to understand the needs of each location, including sales volume, the type of food being cooked, the cooking equipment in use, and the type of exhaust ventilator on the roof. A well-serviced system will always perform better than a poorly maintained one. Addressing these key failure points—equipment, service, and third-party interference—ensures the long-term success of your grease containment system.
GreaseCare is a fixed-price program that offers a reliable way to avoid costly roof membrane repairs, minimize risks, and maintain regulatory compliance through rooftop grease containment and routine removal.
