Answer This Question

A:  For best results, pour product directly in the drain as directed on the label.

    A:  No.....I put the kettle on for boiling water. Add product, let sit for 10 min and pour two pints of hot water to flush....done. fumes can be bothersome though.

      A:  no. I flush it down later with hot water

        A:  No, for best results I run/pour hot water into drain for 30 to 45 seconds; wait for water to lower; and then pour 16 oz of zep 10-min into the drain. Otherwise the zep gets too diluted to work imo.

                      A:  My washer drains into a utility sink; some washers drain into a stand-pipe. I am able to pour the zep 10-min directly into the sink's drain and I use it in the utility sink drain about twice as often as I do for my other drains. Yes, it works great for me, but only use it if you can pour directly into the drain or stand-pipe. Never pour any of it into your washer imo.

                          A:  It dose work but only if it is able to sit on the clog and the clog isn't mixes with soap. It not a replacement for a good drain snake but I'll sometimes try it first before I pull out the snake.
