No more clogged drain traps with the No Clog T-Trap, Safe-T-Trap, or PermaFlow

Sooner or later, every drain trap gets clogged, causing frustration and making many of you waste your time and harm the environment with chemical drain decloggers. Well, they don't all get clogged, there are the No Clog T-Trap, the Safe-T-Trap, and the PermaFlow, three innovative and "green' products that promise to keep your drain open without the need for chemicals or excessive labor.



 

Why It's Clever What's This?

When it's just another one of those days and your drain trap gets clogged, there are two possibilities. Either you have a "green conscience" and you're willing to spend time and effort cleaning the drain trap manually to protect our precious environment – or you prefer it the easy way, and take a bottle of chemical drain opener out of the closet and pour it down the drain. I care for the environment, but I have to admit that I'm more like the second type of person, my time being too valuable.

And it appears that there are many like me, since yearly we use millions of bottles of chemical drain openers. Besides being harmful for the environment, these products are also responsible for hundreds of injuries each year including small children. And if you have a septic tank, they are certainly to be avoided.

The Safe-T-Trap and the No Clog T-Trap look… well… similar. There is a removable part with a filter capturing dirt – and also your (ear)rings that accidentally went down the drain. Just take out the removable part, take out your lost goods or clean it, and put it back.

The PermaFlow uses a different design. It has a shape that generates turbulence, moving sediment downstream. When it gets clogged or is about to, all you need to do is turn the wheel to rotate the paddle inside, and the buildup is swept away.

See the commercial:

  • Keep your drain trap open without using chemicals

  • See-through window or completely transparent construction lets you see when it's time to clean it and why it's clogged.
