Price of State Chemical Drain Openers

 

A drain opener is a product used to unclog a drain. It can be difficult to choose a drain opener because there are a variety of factors to consider when purchasing one, including which type of pipes you have, what item has clogged your drain, and the price of the product.

At State Chemical, we sell drain openers in the United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico. We sell many different drain openers. This article details the price of our products.

In 2024, a twelve pack of drain openers from State Chemical cost $300-$600. We sell our products at a bulk discount – a single bottle is more expensive per ounce than a pack of twelve. If you buy a single bottle, the price per ounce is $1.50 - $4.00. Buying a pack of twelve reduces the cost to $1.00 - $2.75 per ounce.

Drain Openers Unclog Drains.

A drain opener is a product designed to unclog a fully clogged drain. They are not intended to prevent drains from clogging, but will unclog a drain that is already clogged.

Different drain openers have different active ingredients. Drain openers often contain sulfuric acid or sodium hydroxide. These active ingredients can target different causes of clogged drains. For example, if your drain is clogged with cotton or paper products, you need to use a sulfuric acid product. Sodium hydroxide works well on fats, oils, and greases (FOGs) and organics, but will not unclog a drain stuffed with cotton or paper.

State Chemical drain openers are more expensive per bottle than those in consumer stores. For example, our bottles are more expensive than those at Home Depot.

While the bottle itself is more expensive, the product is cheaper per use because you need to use less product per use.

Consider Factors Beyond Price in Purchasing a Drain Opener.

While it may be tempting to buy the cheapest product State Chemical offers, we do not recommend that price be the sole determinant of which product you buy. There are a variety of factors to consider when buying a drain opener.

First, as mentioned above, different active ingredients target different types of drain clogs. Thus, you must consider which product will effectively unclog the blockage in your drain.

Second, an acid-based product may negatively impact cast iron pipes. Acid can deteriorate an already rusty cast iron pipe, so you should consider the age and type of pipe you have when buying a drain opener.

Additionally, all drain openers require you to wear personal protective equipment (PPE) to protect against burns if the product splashes back on you. However, some products have a higher risk of splash back and will cause more severe burns than others. Thus, you can consider the risk of severe burns in buying a drain opener.
