Food service facilities connected to the county system fall under Division 3 of the county's utilities chapter, the food service facility fats, oil and grease rules in Sec. 110-174. If your sewer bill doesn't come from Pasco County Utilities, check which provider's rules apply to you. The county rule is 90 days or 20%, whichever comes first. Traps are cleaned and pumped at least every 90 days, and sooner once captured FOG and food sludge displace 20% of the volume. Pumping means emptying the unit completely and cleaning the side walls, cross pipes, and inlet and outlet pipes. Every trap is opened, inspected and maintained at least monthly, and under-sink units are cleaned at least weekly. Records of every cleaning, repair and disposal must show the date, time and amount pumped, be signed by the owner or manager, and be kept for three years. Much of Wesley Chapel's restaurant base is new construction along SR-54 and SR-56, around the Shops at Wiregrass and Tampa Premium Outlets. New interceptors are sized to the plumbing code for the opening menu and seating. As a restaurant gets busier, the 20% line arrives sooner than the 90-day calendar, so measuring at each visit matters more here than elsewhere. Crews reach the area on I-75, I-275 and Bruce B. Downs Boulevard. The rule in Wesley Chapel **Pasco County Utilities:** Cleaned and pumped every 90 days, or sooner once FOG and food sludge reach 20% of volume; pump until empty and clean walls, cross pipes, inlet and outlet. **Records:** 3 years, signed, produced to county inspectors on demand.

At least every 90 days under Pasco County's rule, and sooner once FOG and food sludge reach 20% of the trap's volume. Under-sink units must be cleaned at least weekly (County Code Sec. 110-174). ### How much does grease trap cleaning cost in Wesley Chapel? Typical Tampa Bay ranges are $400–$650 per pump-out for a 1,000–1,500 gallon interceptor (medium confidence) and $150–$350 per indoor trap cleaning (low confidence). On a 90-day rule that's 4–5 visits a year, about $1,600–$2,600 at the minimum four. Ask for a written quote before work starts. ### Why does Pasco use 20% instead of 25%? That's the threshold the county wrote into Sec. 110-174. It means a trap is due sooner than it would be in Tampa or unincorporated Hillsborough at the same fill level. ### What records does Pasco County want? A signed record of every cleaning, maintenance, disposal and repair, showing the date, time and amount pumped, kept for three years and produced to county inspectors on demand. ### Can I use enzymes or bacteria in my grease trap? Not without the county's prior written approval, which can be temporary and withdrawn at any time. ## Rules and costs for Wesley Chapel - [Do Grease Trap Enzymes Replace Pumping?What additives actually do, what each local program allows, and why none of them remove the need to pump.](https://greasetrapcleaningtampa.com/guide/grease-trap-enzymes-vs-pumping/) - [What Grease Trap Records and Manifests Does Florida Require?What a valid service manifest contains, who signs it, and the record-keeping rules that sit on top of it in each Tampa Bay program.](https://greasetrapcleaningtampa.com/guide/grease-trap-records-manifests-florida/) - [How Often Should a Grease Trap Be Cleaned in Tampa Bay?Nine rule sets in one metro.
