Between service visits
Commercial bio drain treatment
Enzyme dosing does not replace jetting. It extends the gap between visits, which on a busy kitchen line is worth real money.
After a line is jetted back to bare pipe, the clock starts again. A bio program slows that clock by digesting the thin film of grease and organic residue that reforms nightly, dosed automatically overnight when the line is idle and has hours to work undisturbed.
The secondary benefit is usually the one kitchens notice first. Drain flies and drain odor both come from that organic film, so a line being dosed properly stops producing either. What the program cannot do is rescue a line that has already closed, and no honest supplier will tell you otherwise.
Right for
- Kitchen lines on a jetting schedule
- Bar and dish pit drains
- Floor drains with recurring drain flies
- Grease trap outlet lines
- Any site where odor complaints are recurring
How a program runs
- Line jetted back to bare pipe first
- Dosing point and rate set to the line and volume
- Timed overnight dosing while the line is idle
- Reviewed against blockage history and adjusted
Dosing a dirty line is wasted money
Enzymes work on a thin film, not on a quarter inch of hardened grease. Starting a program before the line has been properly cleaned means paying monthly for a product that cannot reach the problem.
Straight answers
Questions about bio drain treatment
Does bio treatment replace jetting?
No, and be wary of anyone who says it does. It extends the interval between jetting visits and controls odor and flies. The mechanical clean is still what resets the pipe.
Is it safe for grease traps and septic?
Yes. Unlike caustics, enzyme products do not kill the biological activity a trap or a tank relies on. That is precisely why they are the only drain product we will put near either.
