Get a Free FOG Kit

Fats, oils, and greases (FOGs) aren't just bad for your arteries; they're also bad for your home's plumbing, city sewer pipes, LOTT's sewer system, and home septics. When poured down sink drains, FOGs harden and stick to pipe walls, where they can cause clogs. Use LOTT's FOG Kit to police the grease and protect your pipes. The FOG Kit includes:

• A reusable lid that fits most tuna, pet food, or other standard-size cans
• A scraper to transfer grease from the pan to the can

Don't have a kit? Lacey, Olympia, and Tumwater sewer customers can call (360) 664-2333 to receive a free kit by mail.
