FAQ About Pipe Cleaners
Pipe cleaners must never be used in the toilet, as corrosive alkaline solutions are formed. These can not flow off, so that eyes and skin will be cauterized. There are special cleaners for cleaning toilets.
The aim of the pipe cleaner is to destroy organic compounds. It has a strong corrosive effect together with water and outside the pipes it destroys all living things.
Yes. Due to the high environmental impact of some manufacturers, sustainable products have also been developed. They clean just as well and pollute the environment much less than their competitors.
Manual and chemical pipe clean ers can be found on the market. Manual cleaners include the Industrial RoPump and the Industrial Compressed Air Pipe Cleaner (both from Rothenberger). However, they are usually only used for pipe blockages, which is why the chemical version is used more in everyday life.
If you use too much of the cleaner, it gets too hot in the pipe and crystallizes . This causes the pipe to clog. Then you have to run some hot water and hope that this will break up the blockage. Therefore: Always check the manufacturer’s instructions carefully!
