DrainXcel all-natural pipe cleaner from Brookside-Agra features a blend of bacteria and enzymes that eliminates odor and digests organic materials, including fats, oil and grease, in grease traps and drain pipes. Designed for commercial and residential use, daily application can prevent hair and other clogs from building in a variety of drains, including those in restrooms and kitchens. 

“The place that goes most unnoticed where DrainXcel is extremely effective is in university dorm rooms and cafeterias,” says Tony Arro, director of sales, Brookside-Agra. “The facilities are often aging and get a lot of use. When we talk to engineers, they tell us that you can only jet the lines so many times before they are subject to real damage; then you’re looking at a big-time expense to replace them. Our unique DrainXcel dispensing system helps to maintain drains and pipes and keep them clean and flowing naturally.” 

Safe for use around humans and animals as well as septic systems, DrainXcel leaves behind no harmful byproducts or residues and will not damage pipes, drains or harm the environment. 

“It’s a wonderful product for home-use as well,” he says. “Plumbers often recommend DrainXcel to their customers as part of their routine maintenance program.” 

DrainXcel can be used as part of a customized “Go with the Flow” dispensing system and preventive maintenance program. A timed metering device automatically delivers the appropriate amount of cleaner to the targeted area and schedules product refills. The delivery system, available with 5- or 15-gallon tanks, can be either plugged into a standard 110-volt outlet or battery powered. 

“We can really target the dispensing system based on a customer’s specific needs. For example, we can program the system to dispense twice a day in four-minute intervals either overnight or before heavy activity,” Arro says. “The DrainXcel dispensing system is ideal for use in restaurants, bars, universities, hotels, resorts and dormitories where drains get a lot of heavy use. We have tried to make the system as easy as possible for the customer, taking a proactive approach to drain and pipe maintenance and eliminating unwanted clogs and repairs.” 618/628-8300; www.brookside-agra.com.
