Instructions

For Drain Care to work properly, you need to establish a partial flow so the enzymes can reach further down the pipes and start the cleaning process. Lift the drain stoppers and remove hair to allow Drain Care to reach as far as possible. Run warm water into the drain before treatment. Mix 1 scoop in 1 pint of warm water. Pour the mixture into the drain, and do not use for 6 hours. Treat for 3 consecutive days. Repeat treatment as necessary. Use once a month to keep drains clean. Drain Care is safe and beneficial for all plumbing and septic systems. TO TREAT TOILETS: Pour mixture in and flush once. Do not use for 6 hours. Treat for 3 days in a row. GARBAGE DISPOSALS: Pour mixture into running disposal. Quickly turn off disposal and allow to sit overnight. Repeat as needed.

Pro-Tip: Monthly drain maintenance removes build ups, preventing clogs. Sign up for our Pro Care Reminders from the Zep Commercial home page to help you remember the date!

So difficult to use
Size : Case of 12
Not only do you have to mix this with water in a separate container prior to pouring, you’res supposed to use it for 3 days in a row and not use that drain for SIX HOURS once you put the stuff down it. Who has time for that?

It works
Size : Case of 12
I've tried everything I could think of to get rid of the awful smell from my bathroom sink. I even pulled the pipes and cleaned them. The smell didn't go away. I thought I would have to call a plumber. I decided to try this last product. I'm so happy I did. It took only two applications and smell is gone. Easy to use. I put it in my sink before I went to bed so it could work overnight. First night I felt disappointed. The second morning is when I knew it worked.I truly appreciate the person who invented this.

Didn’t do a thing for draining speed or clog prevention. Was a bit expensive for what it didn’t do. Expected more function from this product.

Did the job
Size : Case of 12
Was having a problem of smell of rotten food in drain in bathroom sink. YouTube video instructed to use a product like this. I choose this product over an industrial strength due to volume and cost of product. Product came with its own scoop. This an advantage. Appears to be working. I even tried in kitchen drain and garbage disposal

Gets rid of awful odors
Size : Case of 12
I saw this product on a YouTube video. I was at my wits end since my bathroom sink smelled like a sewer this summer. It took a couple of tries, but it worked great! It actually got rid of the smell from my bathroom sink as well as the overflow. I’m now using this proactively in my shower drains as well to prevent odor back up. I highly recommend this!
