What You Should Know about Rooftop Grease Damage
 
With a series of safety and environmental issues facing the restaurant industry by state and federal government agencies, it’s more important than ever to get rooftop grease under control.
 
Now, businesses just like yours can be held responsible for polluted storm water systems, clogged sewers and sewer spills caused from fats, oil and grease.

So who is requiring you to keep grease off your roof?

• The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
• The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA)
• National Fire Protection Association (NFPA)
• Fire Marshalls
• Health Departments
• Insurance Underwriters
• Landlords

If your business generates or discharges Fats, Oils or Grease you’re faced with the EPA’s Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) and Best Management Practices (BMP’s) to manage contaminated storm water runoff.
 
As a restaurant owner, you are required to be compliant with state and federal requirements.  This means you’re responsible for controlling the run-off of Fats, Oils and Grease spilling onto rooftops and into storm water drainage systems.

What about the financial impact of grease and oil on your roof?
 
You could have a $30,000 to $300,000 = problem sitting on your roof, right now, and not even know it.  
 

It’s understandable that most of these issues go unnoticed.  With everything else on a business owners mind, rooftop grease control is probably at the bottom of the list.  Until there’s an accident.

For just a minute, let’s explore how far the damage spreads when your rooftop is contaminated with grease:

• Rooftop failure and damage
• Interior damage
• Fire, Health and Safety hazards
• Environmental issues
• Fines
• Insurance Costs
• Legal Liabilities

And that’s just the beginning.  Think about the impact this would have on your business if the word spread through your local community.  Consumers are more conscious about food safety and environmental issues today than ever.
