Maintenance Tips

Consistent monthly application is key to preventing pipe buildup and ensuring optimal drain performance. Mark your calendar or set reminders to ensure regular treatment.

Troubleshooting

Zep Drain Defense is primarily designed for preventative maintenance and addressing slow drains caused by buildup. For tougher, more severe clogs, a stronger solution may be required.

• For very stubborn clogs, consider using a specialized clog remover like Zep Liquid Heat Clog Dissolver, as recommended by Zep.
• If issues persist, consult a professional plumber.
