    <content type="html">&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;What is Alpha Bio-Drian Cleaner? &lt;br&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Alpha Bio-Drain is a biodegradable and enzymatic drain odor eliminator that is ideal for cleaning drains and removing odors in veterinary clinics and animal care facilities. Alpha Bio-Drain is a commercial drain cleaner that eliminates odors in minutes and then works for days to open drains and maintain flow. Alpha Bio-Drain is also a biodegradable drain cleaner, making it completely natural, extremely safe, and environmentally friendly. There will be no more harsh chemicals draining into your septic or sewage systems.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The patent-pending Alpha Bio-Drain formula combines fortified enzymes, grease-cutting surfactant, and enzyme-producing bacterial spores to open and maintain drains while also removing odors. It ensures that proteins, carbohydrates, cellulose (hair), dirt, garbage, and fats (grease) are rapidly broken down! Alpha Bio-Drain can be used in all types of drains, including shower drains, kitchen and bathroom sinks, garbage disposals, floor drains, and more. Grooming salons, animal care facilities, kennels, doggie day care, and offices will all benefit from this product.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;How to use Bio-Drian Cleaner? &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Simply pour two ounces down your drain and wait overnight to use as a commercial drain cleaner and odor remover. It will astound you with how simple it is to use and how effective it is at removing drain odor. Furthermore, because it is an enzymatic drain cleaner, it works hard to keep your drains flowing smoothly and smelling fresh.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Customer Reviews on Bio-Drian Cleaner. &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Customers love our Alpha Bio-Drian Cleaner. Here are a few verified customer testimonials:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“We use biodrain in our commercial pet resort to break down hair and waste and it works great and prevents clogs and odors.” - Lauren &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“This helps keep the kennel smelling great in between cleaning out the drains. Also helps to be able to space the cleaning out more.” - Four Paws &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“I absolutely love Biodrain. I use this in my tubs and sinks. It keeps everything smelling fresh and I have not had any clogs since I started using Biodrain. Also, you only need 2 oz.s every other week. It's very economical. I highly recommend Bio-Drain” - Michael&lt;/p&gt;

    <title type="text">Regular Drain Maintenance and Role of An Enzymatic Cleaner at An Animal Facility</title>
    <summary type="html">&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="/blog/dog-bath-hair-drain.jpg" alt="dog hair in drain" data-image="txlrxawk2p3l"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you’ve ever noticed their personal bathtub has begun to drain slowly after a shower, you might have braved the confines of your drain. The results are usually a mixed bag of matted hair that’s built up over time to partially or even fully clog things up. Fishing out the worst of it usually does the trick, letting you shower for months without a care afterward.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;figure style="float: right; margin: 5px 10px 0px 20px;width:45%;"&gt;&lt;img src="/blog/dog-hair-grooming.jpg" alt="dog hair grooming" data-image="rknw2b9unxrd"&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Yet in a professional animal care environment, a simple occasional fishing expedition isn’t going to cut it. If you run an animal hospital, a kennel, a grooming salon, or even just a vet clinic, your drains are likely to be constantly bombarded with the kind of animal hair that could clog your pipes almost overnight. This is why adopting a regular drain maintenance schedule, and using an &lt;u&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.alphatechpet.com/bio-drain.aspx" target="_blank"&gt;enzymatic cleaner&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/u&gt;, is such an important part of keeping the pipes of your animal care facility clean.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;Weekly Drain Maintenance&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Good drain maintenance begins by not waiting until there’s a problem. Including drain checks during your weekly maintenance cycle will help catch minor problems before they become major ones. Clearing drain covers of hair and ensuring that your drains are flowing without a problem will make it ongoing maintenance easier in the long run.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;Monthly Drain Maintenance&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;figure style="float: right; margin: 5px 10px 0px 20px;width:45%;"&gt;&lt;img src="/blog/hair-drain-cleaning.jpg" alt="hair in drain" data-image="rknw2b9unxrd"&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;
&lt;p&gt;While weekly maintenance will indeed help keep drain problems at bay, it’s crucial to do a deeper clean of your drains at least once a month to clear out any hair, grease, or other materials that might have made it past your drain covers. Treating your drains with a powerful cleaner that’s both safe for animal use and effective in breaking up organic matter that might be lurking in your drains out of sight will go a long way in keeping those drains flowing.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;Seasonal Drain Maintenance&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As the seasons change, the demands on your plumbing systems do as well. If your facility is located in a geographical region that has all four seasons, it’s important to have your drains checked for weather-related damage. Water trapped in clogged drains can freeze, which will can expand and crack your plumbing, so always ensure your drains are as clear as possible before cold weather hits.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;Effectiveness of Enzymatic Cleaner&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Finally, let’s discuss just what types of drain cleaners are best for animal care facilities. By and large, the answer is simple and straightforward: enzymatic cleaners like &lt;u&gt;&lt;a href="/bio-drain.aspx" target="_blank"&gt;Alpha Bio-Drain&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/u&gt;. This is because enzymatic cleaners not only have the ability to break down proteins, grease, and hair that can accumulate and clog drains, their enzymatic formula helps break down and eliminate the unpleasant odors that can accompany blocked drains as well. Fast-acting and effective, adding around 2 ounces of enzymatic cleaner to every drain in your facility once every two weeks is enough to keep your drains free-flowing and clean smelling!&lt;/p&gt;</summary>

&lt;p&gt;Every animal care facility– whether kennel, veterinary clinic, shelter, or otherwise– has need of a catalog of different cleaners. From stain removers to disinfectants to sterilizers, it takes a full spectrum of specialized products to ensure your animals are safe from pathogens, irritants, and odors.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Alpha Tech Pet’s commitment to environmentally friendly solutions for animal care facility maintenance has led us to create natural, safe, and highly effective &lt;a href="/kennelsollanding.aspx"&gt;disinfectants&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="/pet-odor-eliminator.aspx"&gt;deodorants&lt;/a&gt;, and &lt;a href="/kennelsol-germicidal-cleaner-and-deodorant.aspx"&gt;air purification systems&lt;/a&gt;; as well as to embrace all-natural &lt;a href="/surface-sterilizer-commerical-vets.aspx"&gt;sterilizers&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;p&gt;In addition to these, Alpha Tech Pet has created &lt;a href="/bio-drain.aspx"&gt;Alpha Bio-Drain&lt;/a&gt;, an odor counteractant and drain cleaning solution. Formulated for veterinary clinics and animal care facilities, Alpha Bio-Drain acts within minutes to eliminate odors through its patent pending powerful odor counteractant. It continues working as its fortified enzymes, grease cutting surfactant and intelligent stabilized enzyme producing bacterial spores work together to open and maintain drains. It insures the rapid breakdown of proteins, carbohydrates, cellulose (hair) and fats (grease)!&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As with our other products, Alpha Bio-Drain is totally organic, biodegradable, safe to use and environmentally friendly with no deleterious ingredients. Our commitment to creating effective solutions that are also environmentally responsible guides all of our product creation, and Bio-Drain is no exception.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Bio-Drain is available in &lt;a href="/alpha-bio-drain-5-gallon-pail.aspx"&gt;5 gallon pails&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="/alpha-bio-drain-1/2-gallon-bottle-4/case.aspx"&gt;½ gallon bottles&lt;/a&gt;. For automatic dispensation, the &lt;a href="/hydrodrain-automatic-dispenser-for-5-gallon-pails-of-biodrain.aspx"&gt;Alpha HydroDRAIN&lt;/a&gt; can be programmed to release Bio-Drain at set timed intervals.&lt;/p&gt;</summary>

&lt;p&gt;Every animal care facility– whether kennel, veterinary clinic, shelter, or otherwise– has need of a catalog of different cleaners. From stain removers to disinfectants to sterilizers, it takes a full spectrum of specialized products to ensure your animals are safe from pathogens, irritants, and odors.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Alpha Tech Pet’s commitment to environmentally friendly solutions for animal care facility maintenance has led us to create natural, safe, and highly effective &lt;a href="/kennelsollanding.aspx"&gt;disinfectants&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="/pet-odor-eliminator.aspx"&gt;deodorants&lt;/a&gt;, and &lt;a href="/kennelsol-germicidal-cleaner-and-deodorant.aspx"&gt;air purification systems&lt;/a&gt;; as well as to embrace all-natural &lt;a href="/surface-sterilizer-commerical-vets.aspx"&gt;sterilizers&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;p&gt;In addition to these, Alpha Tech Pet has created &lt;a href="/bio-drain.aspx"&gt;Alpha Bio-Drain&lt;/a&gt;, an odor counteractant and drain cleaning solution. Formulated for veterinary clinics and animal care facilities, Alpha Bio-Drain acts within minutes to eliminate odors through its patent pending powerful odor counteractant. It continues working as its fortified enzymes, grease cutting surfactant and intelligent stabilized enzyme producing bacterial spores work together to open and maintain drains.

&lt;p class="justifysetting"&gt;If you have a sewage system in your animal care facility, you don’t want to be without &lt;a href="/alpha-bio-drain-1/2-gallon-bottle-4/case.aspx"&gt;Bio-Drain&lt;/a&gt;!
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="justifysetting"&gt;This product will help you maintain a well functioning drain system, and it eliminates nasty odors; have you ever cleaned out a sink’s drain before? If you have, you know the nasty odors (and junk) that come out of that drain; Bio-Drain will help eliminate those odors (and drain-clogging debris).
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="justifysetting"&gt;This product will breakdown proteins, hair, grease, and anything else that is dumped down the sink; because it breaks down proteins such as hair and grease, your drain won’t clog, and you won’t have to go fishing into the sink to pull out a wad of pet hair that is lodged in the drain!
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="justifysetting"&gt;Not only will this product keep your drain and sewage system free flowing and eliminate odor, but it is also 100% organic and environmentally friendly.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;img src="/images/HydroDrain_detail-225x300.jpg" alt="Automatic Bio-Drain Dispenser" data-image="xseds2fpd4ge"&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p class="justifysetting"&gt;You have your choice between half gallon containers or five gallon pails; you can even try our &lt;a href="https://alphatechpet.com/hydrodrain-automatic-dispenser-for-5-gallon-pails-of-biodrain.aspx"&gt;Automatic Bio-Drain Dispenser&lt;/a&gt; unit that is specifically made for the five gallon pails!
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="justifysetting"&gt;Let us help you keep your drain and sewage systems running smoothly and odor-free! For more information about our Bio-Drain products, please give Alpha Tech Pet a call at 800-222-5537.
