Ik this is old but let me tell you. In the south chinese restaurants are the dirtiest places on earth. We've gone in for a grease trap and theyll have raw meat uncovered in the open the whole time we are there
William Ferguson I can already smell the greasy window score card reading 1.5/100 😂😂 oh wait, i forgot they power wash and incinerate the kitchen every 6 months to pretend they know hygiene.
All restaurants are like that, I have done many renovations and repair after hours while the restaurant is closed at all different types of restaurant and they all are dirty.
amh75ify We always recommend it obviously but it’s on the restaurant owner.. all we can do it hope and pray that they do the right thing by there customers! 👍
We typically use 5/16” on all small drains from 1-1/2” to 3”… the 1/4” we break out for smaller drains that have tighter turns and the 3/8” cable if it’s thick in 2”-3” pipe
One question. What did you use to clean the grease out of your trousers! Are they uniform or something, you seem to be wearing them all the time. Very smart, but somewhat impractical with Grease, Gunk & bodily goo ......
Yeah I typically were the canvas style pants on the days where I know I’m going to be down grease traps. They are a little thicker and hold up the best, if I used the regular work pants or jeans when the grease gets on them they stain. 👍
Yeah S H we deal with these grease traps on a daily basis so most of the popular ones we have a good understanding of exactly how to clean the drains on them just by feel! 👍
I dont care how much plastic wrap they used on the food sitting on the counters, you do not let it sit at room temperature and possible exposure. One drop of any of that filth on the wrap itself should be discarded. That whole kitchen should have to be sanitized afterwards. Also ,just like when children look abused they have to be reported to the authorities.,kitchens like this should be turned in to the Board of Health to monitor proper clean up.
why does the sewage goes back down the grease trap? wont they clog back up? why isnt the sewage and grease sucked out? i would imagine emptying it. then some hot water jet or smthing would clean this up entirely and prevent future clogs for years.
Pheurbel VLS Yeah grease is always worse! it’s the rotting smell that stays with you all days, even when you know it’s not in the air anymore it’s a mental smell 🤮
I clean grease traps and do line maintenance for a living. Grease does tend to smell more. It depends on the type of trap and what is going through as well. Some are worse than others.
Yes I do, and in our area it’s city testing so the company really isn’t involved. As long as I work under a master plumber for 5 years learning and then 1 year as a journeymen I’m eligible to take my masters test. I took mine 3 years ago 👍
@@DrainPros Did they help you find a master plumber or did you have to do that on your own Im just curious because im trying to get into plumbing but dont know anyone in the trade.
worlds best Our owner was a master plumber so we it was spent under his license.. I would recommend calling the board responsible for the test in your area so that you know what the requirements you will need, and then go to a plumbing supply house to find out who they recommend you apply to with the credentials!
I was thinking he should dunk the bit in some of that greasy water. It would provide awesome cooling and lubrication. Ill bet it would better than coolcut 😆
Oh please...you should’ve seen my folks old Chinese restaurant....the whole surface was hard that we have to use a shovel to break the surface into chunks than break it into smaller chunks to throw it into the trash than drain it.
We couldn’t access the outlet pipe leaving the grease trap, so we had to drill into the baffle top to cable the pipe. Usually on a grease trap like this they will install a clean out on the pipe after the grease trap so you can cable out during future clogs👍
Drain Pros My man, A hammer drill only works on concrete with a concrete drill bit. Using your step bet on hammer setting probably lead to it’s quick death. It’s all good, Great videos. 👍
Definitely! Seems like a circle of life, I get it looking great for a while and then a few big jobs that end late in the day and I don’t get to clean it up and then all he’ll breaks loose 👍 hate working out of a dirty van or job site, wish I were better about keeping up on it definitely not my best quality!
Cleaning up their shit while they still have all the food out in the kitchen. Well I sure know why I hesitate to eat in such small Chinese restaurants. 😂
Something you really don’t want to see - the kitchen of a small restaurant with very cheap meals, and you suddenly realise why it is so cheap. Grease - any sewer’s and sewer company’s worst nightmare.
if you know how much work goes into western chinese food and why its so greasy because majority of fast food eaters want deep fried food. if people knew what real chinese cooking is like, especially the very healthy ones, the grease trap probably wont even look like that. Thats wishful thinking though. Pretty sure all fast food restaurants are disgusting as hell
Schatze Manly haha Yeah that one was smoked! Was working out of another guys van that day so didn’t have all the right tools, New uni bit would have zipped right through that!!
Gaming pro ttv We got it open that night but went back the next day to use a new step drill big making the hole more accessible to cable out with a bigger cable. I was pretty sure that the cable we used only put a hole in the grease and would clog in the future! Haven’t had any problems with it since using the bigger cable! 👍
Acheter lui une bonne mèche et un rangement de camionette ne serait pas de trop. Pro??? Je peux lui montrer une camionette ranger et des mèches qui coupent...

did y'all check the freezer? my cat has been missing for 3 days now
Aaron Abney 😂 there was a couple off them, what color is your 🐈?
white, black, brown, 1 had the punisher skull on his chest
Aaron Abney didn’t see any of them but there was one in the fryer! Not sure if that’s good news or not for you 😂
I asked them to cook 1 for me
Hahahahahah😂
Thank you very much for excellent solution and i got same problem for my Indian restaurant and i will show it to the plumber
And that my friends is why I never eat in a small Chinese restaurant. Did you see the shit built up in those floor sinks? “There’s your problem lady”
That’s the worst part about being a plumber is seeing the kitchen area!
@@DrainPros
And that's why the city health inspector drives a 7 series BMW and you have a van.
William Ferguson Lol 😂
William Ferguson I can already smell the greasy window score card reading 1.5/100 😂😂 oh wait, i forgot they power wash and incinerate the kitchen every 6 months to pretend they know hygiene.
@@DrainPros Have a friend of mine who used to work for a major soda company (not Pepsi) and he used to say the same thing.
How can this place stay open & when was the last time health dept checked it out?
Love your vids just got to say what's with all the blurring especially on the pump.
That is what happens when a camera can't focus.
The title gave me chills . I know it all to well
All restaurants are like that, I have done many renovations and repair after hours while the restaurant is closed at all different types of restaurant and they all are dirty.
Definitely the worst part about being a plumber/drain cleaner is seeing the conditions of some of the restaurant kitchens 👎
@@DrainPros most bathrooms are cleaner then kitchen in commercial settings. That grease got the funk most people can't handle..😂.
I severely doubt that any sanitation will be taking place. 😷
amh75ify We always recommend it obviously but it’s on the restaurant owner.. all we can do it hope and pray that they do the right thing by there customers! 👍
.........It's a clogged grease trap ffs.
@@DrainPros ok
I bet you don't have to worry about anybody stealing your equipment. No need for keys. Thanks for your horrific work you do man!
The funny part is the dude has a head camera to show the whole drama lol
You look like a "trust me I know what I'm doing" type of dude
😂👍
I see that you have my problem... Stuff collects in those wells below the sliding doors in my service van and fall out 24/7!
Lol the age old problem! 👍
i just noticed your general snake in the truck. Is that a good size for my kitchen and bathrub?
i mean the one in the truck, not the gun type
We typically use 5/16” on all small drains from 1-1/2” to 3”… the 1/4” we break out for smaller drains that have tighter turns and the 3/8” cable if it’s thick in 2”-3” pipe
Why is it blurred?
What size of cable are you using
One question. What did you use to clean the grease out of your trousers!
Are they uniform or something, you seem to be wearing them all the time.
Very smart, but somewhat impractical with Grease, Gunk & bodily goo ......
Yeah I typically were the canvas style pants on the days where I know I’m going to be down grease traps. They are a little thicker and hold up the best, if I used the regular work pants or jeans when the grease gets on them they stain. 👍
try gojo. my dad had his shirt coated in oil and old stink grease, so he just rubbed gojo into it, and it hosed right out.
what size cable was that? 3/8? how did you get the snake inside the box? you must know how the plumbing was plumbed
Yeah S H we deal with these grease traps on a daily basis so most of the popular ones we have a good understanding of exactly how to clean the drains on them just by feel! 👍

@ u do know that the grease trap leads to the sewer line? That’s why it’s called a geese trap.
is that a Genearl Snake Brand? I want to get that for kitchen and bathtub?
They were awesome S H! Definitely worth it to take care of the small drains around the house and for friends 👍
Love the videos man, but were you trying to test out your blurring when you were editing or something? Alot of random blur outs.
Pano makuha yong naka bara kong ganyan ka liit yong butas?
No spare arbour pilot bits...... rookie mistake. But you probably have 4 of them but can't find then. 😆
Haha definitely felt like a rookie that day! I was in the middle of transferring to a new van so I had half my tools in both 🤦♂️! 😂
So poop corn urine tampons wipes all that's ok but the wheel nope that's too much for our eyes xD
why does the sewage goes back down the grease trap? wont they clog back up? why isnt the sewage and grease sucked out? i would imagine emptying it. then some hot water jet or smthing would clean this up entirely and prevent future clogs for years.
What town is this pig pen located in,w/o naming names?
I try not to get too in-depth for obvious reasons, were located in upstate NY👍.. completely understand what your saying though George!
take the hole saw off of the mandrill , drill with Pilot then put your hole saw on Free Hint
Thanks for the tip David! Will put it to good use next time 👍
Would not want to eat there. That place is not bleaching anything.
Probably with a swifter wet jet after it dried the water dried up.
What jetters do you guys use
What does a stopped up grease trap smell like? Worse than a clogged sewer line or about equal? 💚💚
Pheurbel VLS Yeah grease is always worse! it’s the rotting smell that stays with you all days, even when you know it’s not in the air anymore it’s a mental smell 🤮

GaminJunction TV Thank you and I can only imagine.
@@DrainPros It coats the hairs in your nose.
@ well said. Very distinct vomit smell. Almost like a fruity pungent smell.
Do you work for Mr.Rooter because Ive seen there truck in your vids a few times. If so do you know if they help you get your plumbing license?
Yes I do, and in our area it’s city testing so the company really isn’t involved. As long as I work under a master plumber for 5 years learning and then 1 year as a journeymen I’m eligible to take my masters test. I took mine 3 years ago 👍

Plumbers always have such messy vans.. work work work.. companys gives them no time to clean.. and be productive and efficient...
Why do you censor the wheel at 1530?
Haha for the wheels privacy 😂 kidding! TH-cam blur feature is a pain in the butt, appreciate you letting me know! 👍
Weird Al Loco Maybe to prevent the hypnotic effect of the spinning? Just a thought. 😁😁
@@khamsinshamal7988 you are smarter than me.
Muito cuidadoso com as ferramentas 🙄
They ain't gonna bleach the kitchen lol great job though
........they'll throw some in the hot mop water.......to kill that funky grease trap vomit smell.
Good job destorying your step bit...use cutting oil next time.
I was thinking he should dunk the bit in some of that greasy water. It would provide awesome cooling and lubrication. Ill bet it would better than coolcut 😆
Did he put the drill in hammer mode? :-p
That bit was wasted before it hit the chuck lol
That thing was toast from jump street.
Oh please...you should’ve seen my folks old Chinese restaurant....the whole surface was hard that we have to use a shovel to break the surface into chunks than break it into smaller chunks to throw it into the trash than drain it.
No 124 anyone ? With prawn balls and special rice !
Double gloving you KNOW its spicy
What was all the drilling for?
We couldn’t access the outlet pipe leaving the grease trap, so we had to drill into the baffle top to cable the pipe. Usually on a grease trap like this they will install a clean out on the pipe after the grease trap so you can cable out during future clogs👍
Hammer drill?...
Yeah that drill had the option it was just a burnt out step up bit.. a brand new one would have ripped it right open! 👍
Smh

Drain Pros My man, A hammer drill only works on concrete with a concrete drill bit. Using your step bet on hammer setting probably lead to it’s quick death. It’s all good, Great videos. 👍
Used the garden hose to clean up. Then we took some of the grease we removed and put in jar and gave to chineeeeee owner for his cuisine.
Yeah, you’re gonna need an arbor there, guy
Cement mixer that orange thing
Man your van needs to be cleaned and organised that would do my head in.....🤣🤣🤣

Man I just kept thinking that he was going to slip with that drill and go right into whatever that crap is
Relax that crap is no human waste matter, only dirty dishwater, kitchen waste, and cooking grease
@@darthgamer6080 Which they would know if they bothered to read the title of the video
destroyed that bit shit I thought u was gonna ignite a fire lmao
That’s the stuff they fry the chicken in 🤮🤮
The chinese exhaust system are the worst. The grease they use is on a whole another level. Stay away from that cleaning
Any bats in there
Ur messed up
This is in the US
I thought that to use the sewer machine you have to use leather gloves
You can use leather or rubber! Any material that won’t get pinched in between the coils! 👍
Sorry for that
Cleaning up their shit while they still have all the food out in the kitchen. Well I sure know why I hesitate to eat in such small Chinese restaurants. 😂
