I recently was on vacation in Florida, and had taken a liking to the outdoor beverage center our hotel had. Unfortunately, the center had drainage problems. Instead of being able to get drinks five feet from the pool, I had to run up four flights of stairs each time I wanted a glass of water!
Odors of rotting garbage and drain back-ups are two issues that can quickly become a manager’s worse nightmare. Many commercial businesses face the problem of drain line and grease trap back-up every year. Grease and organic matter can takeover inside of the drain lines, which can be unpleasant for employees and customers as well.
To solve these problems, don’t reach for an over-the-counter drain cleaner. Solvents, acids, and heavy surfactants can eat away at pipe linings and PVC pipes can become brittle. Instead, consider bioremediation. Bioremediation is an advanced technology that uses natural bacteria to safely convert grease and organic matter to water and carbon dioxide.

There are no toxins or chemicals. Microbes are infused directly into drain lines, grease traps, and septic systems. The microbes simply live, existing only to eat fats, oils, grease, and other organic material.
