Athea 253 Enviro-Caustic - Safer Caustic Drain Opener Technology

Enviro-Caustic Drain Opener is a breakthrough in drain opener technology, combining the performance of traditional caustic drain openers with superior environmental and safety characteristics. This fast-acting ready-to-use product is biodegradable, odorless, and nonflammable, offering the caustic cleaning power needed for efficient drain clearing without the hazards of conventional drain openers.

The high-density, thickened formula is heavier than water, so it sinks and clings to the point of obstruction and begins working quickly. Highly effective against obstructions caused by fats, oils, lint, and hair in residential and commercial drain systems. NSF L1 registered for drain line maintenance. The thickened formula ensures better contact time at the obstruction site compared to traditional caustic drain openers.
