How can such
a small amount of BIO-CLEAN be effective in plumbing?
There are millions and millions of bacteria in each spoonful. Each one
will eat its weight of waste every 60 seconds. They double in number every 30
minutes, and as they multiply they will spread throughout the entire drain
system.
Will it work
on a clog?
If the material is
biodegradable, yes. However, in most cases, the stoppage is not caused by a
blob of something in the trap. Most likely, it is several feet of pipe that
is
filled with "gunk", and it may take several days for the bacteria to eat
through this long blockage. Therefore, it is suggested that a mechanical
cable
be used to restore the flow. Then begin BIO-CLEAN treatments to remove
any remaining waste build-up. Regular maintenance treatments will prevent new
build-up.
How long
will it take to see the results?
Some people notice improvement in a day or two. Almost everyone will see
results in one to three weeks. Note: The cleaning process is not completed
with
the initial five day treatment. The time is determined by the type of
material
the build-up is comprised of (grease, soap, hair) and the length of the
lines.
Hair takes the longest to digest.
Should the
toilet be flushed after pouring BIO-CLEAN into the bowl?
Do not flush for 6-8 hours. The quart of mixture poured into the bowl
pushes one quart of water and mixture out of the bowl into the stack. The
enzymes and bacteria carried out in the quart leaving the bowl are deposited
on
the gook coating the pipe. In the following 6-8 hours they embed themselves
in
the gunk so that when the toilet is next flushed they will not be flushed
out.
Aren't
chemical drain openers much stronger than BIO-CLEAN ?
The strongest chemical in the world can't climb the side walls of
horizontal pipes. Gravity makes all chemicals run along the bottom. Nor can
chemicals remove much waste in vertical pipes because they flow through so
quickly. The bacteria in BIO-CLEAN are live and will go anywhere there
is food. They will remove the gunk chemicals leave behind.
Does
BIO-CLEAN contain any acid, lye, solvents, perfume or poisonous
substances?
No.
Will BIO-CLEAN
attack
tree roots?
Only roots that are completely dead. Roots enter sewer pipes seeking the
rich organic food supplied by the build-up. As roots feed on the waste they
grow, branch out and eventually restrict flow. Periodic use of enough
BIO-CLEAN and water to reach the root area will eliminate the waste
they
seek. In this manner, the use of BIO-CLEAN discourages root growth in
sewers
Can BIO-CLEAN
really help
a septic system?
Absolutely- in several ways. The bacteria in BIO-CLEAN are
specially selected to digest a larger variety of waste, and metabolize it
faster than naturally occurring bacteria or yeast additives. Oils, fats,
grease
and paper are very difficult for intestinal bacteria to handle.
BIO-CLEAN is very effective on these materials. It increases solids
destruction, so fewer pumpings are needed and that means money saved.
More complete digestion also means fewer undigested solids leaving the tank. These solids would otherwise form a black gooey accumulation in the leach field and prevent water absorption by the soil. Therefore, BIO-CLEAN extends the life of a leach field.
Are any
chemicals
incompatible with septic systems?
Yes. Chlorine, germicidal products, anti-septics, sanitizers, chemical
drain openers, paint, lye, acids, cationic surfactants and food
preservatives.
And in general, anything that is inorganic (not biodegradable).
Does a garbage
disposal
and/or automatic dishwasher affect a septic system?
Yes-in two ways. Disposals add greater loads. Without frequent
BIO-CLEAN treatments, faster accumulation of solids in the tank
occurs.
Most automatic dishwashing compounds, either powder or gel, contain chlorine,
which is damaging to all biological activity. For the least overall problems,
don't use the disposal for material that could go into solid waste or be
composted. Use non-chlorinated, biodegradable dishwashing compound and treat
regularly with BIO-CLEAN. A complete list of recommended products is
available from your authorized BIO-CLEAN dealer.
Does BIO-CLEAN
stop
odors?
Yes, by digesting the waste which is the source of odor.
Does BIO-CLEAN
digest
hair?
Yes. However, it does take much longer than most any other organic
material. In drains, soap scum, skin oils, etc. bond hair to pipe surfaces.
BIO-CLEAN digests these other materials more quickly, which releases
the
hair to wash downstream.
How does
BIO-CLEAN
compare with liquid biological products?
BIO-CLEAN is more concentrated, more uniform, more stable (longer
shelf life) and more economical. Liquids depend upon preservatives to keep
the
bacteria dormant while in the bottle. Most have a high percent of surfactant
to
emulsify oils and fats, not digest them. Enzymes in solution interact with
each
other, which results in shorter shelf life and/or a single enzyme product.
Does BIO-CLEAN
stop odors
coming from a cat litter pan?
Definitely. Best results can be obtained by washing and drying pan and
then sprinkling the bottom with BIO-CLEAN before adding new litter and
coating the top with BIO-CLEAN.
What is the
shelf life of
BIO-CLEAN ?
Several years if kept dry at normal temperature.
Environmentally, does
BIO-CLEAN help or hurt?
BIO-CLEAN is a great help and in no way hurts the ecology. The
active ingredients in BIO-CLEAN are enzymes and bacteria which speed
up
the natural digestion of organic material. This is the only process that
recycles organic waste back to plant food. BIO-CLEAN is not harmful to
pets or marine life. It is so safe a child can apply it. Becuase its action
is
natural, it enhances nature's ability to cope with man's pollution.
What if I am
not
satisfied with the results?

all instructions were followed. Second, allow enough time for the conditions
involved. If still no favorable results, send the details and a telephone
number to us.
