All About Tidal Drain Away 

Clogged drains can be a nuisance, but luckily, Tidal Drain Away is here to help! This cleaning solution, which contains a proprietary surfactant blend (1%-5% by weight), efficiently dissolves food, grease, and other types of debris that tend to get stuck in drains. This in turn eliminates the odor-causing bacteria that feed on this debris.  

Using Drain Away in 4 Simple Steps  

Tidal Drain Away is easy to use! Just follow these 4 steps: 

  1. First, check that water is able to flow through the drain. Tidal Drain Away will not be able to function properly if the drain is so clogged that water cannot run through it. 
  2. Next, pour lukewarm water down the drain. This step is important because Tidal Drain Away is most effective in a warm environment.  
  3. Pour Tidal Drain Away into the drain. 1 quart of Tidal Drain Away is required for every 25 cubic feet of the drain. However, if the drain’s volume is not known, simply add Tidal Drain Away until the drain’s trap is full.  
  4. Allow Tidal Drain Away to sit overnight prior to running water down the drain again.  

Tidal Drain Away can be used as often as once a week for general drain maintenance and to prevent waste buildup. Additionally, when employing Tidal Drain Away in kitchen drains, take care to ensure it does not come into contact with food.  

Beneficial Features of Tidal Drain Away 

Tidal Drain Away boasts a variety of excellent features that any effective drain cleaner should have, including: 

  • Nonflammable 
  • Clean and fresh scent 
  • Low instability 
  • Available in three bulk sizes, allowing you to choose the best size for your needs 
  • Has a close-to-neutral pH, making it safer to work with than very acidic or basic cleaning solutions 
  • Can be used in both indoor drains and outdoor drains
