Revised Building Regulation April 2002

New Part H (Drainage and Waste Disposal) 2002

Part H1, Section 2 Foul Drainage

Section 2.21

“Drainage serving kitchens in commercial hot food premises should be fitted with a grease separator complying with prEN 1825-1 and designed in accordance with prEN 1825-2 or other effective means of grease removal.”

This new legislation is generally applied to new builds and refurbishments, although there is pressure to make it mandatory for all existing sites.
