Remove as much standing water as possible, then empty one entire sachet into a dry drain. Immediately add 1 cup of hot (not boiling) water and wait 10–15 minutes — up to 30 for a stubborn clog. Then flush thoroughly with warm water for 5–10 minutes.
Yes, when used as directed. ZYNOR is safe for PVC and standard household drain lines. Because it's a caustic cleaner, don't use it on aluminum fittings, and for very old or corroded metal pipes follow the label. Don't leave it sitting in a fully blocked line for hours or use more than directed.
Yes, when used as directed. One pre-measured sachet, flushed through with water, is a small amount that disperses and neutralizes in the tank, so occasional use won't upset a healthy septic system or its bacteria. As with any drain product, don't overuse it or pour in more than directed.
No. ZYNOR can be used in a kitchen drain that has a disposal. Add it to the drain, let it work, then flush thoroughly with water — don't run the disposal while the beads are active. In the amount and short contact time directed, it won't harm a standard disposal. Just avoid leaving it in prolonged contact with the unit.
Hair, pet fur, grease, soap scum and everyday organic buildup. The beads react with hot water to break down the proteins in hair and cut through grease, clearing the clog at the source. It won't dissolve solid objects, plastic or hard mineral scale.
No. ZYNOR contains no chlorine or bleach and the beads are odorless, so there are no bleach fumes in your home.
Yes. One packet a month keeps hair and grease from building up so clogs don't get started. Don't exceed the recommended frequency.
ZYNOR is a strong caustic cleaner, so handle it with care. Keep the sachet sealed until use, wear gloves, and avoid contact with skin, eyes, mouth and clothing. Pour the beads into the drain first, then add the water — never lean over the drain, as the reaction gives off heat. Never mix ZYNOR with other drain cleaners, bleach or acids. Keep out of reach of children and pets, and read the full label before use.
First aid. Eyes: rinse immediately with water, remove contact lenses, then flush for at least 20 minutes. Skin: remove affected clothing and flush with water for 15 minutes. If swallowed: rinse mouth, drink a glass of milk or water, do NOT induce vomiting. Then call Poison Control at 800-222-1222 or seek medical help immediately.
