Product Description
NT-MAX Outperforms Ordinary Drain Cleaners
NT-MAX harnesses a proprietary blend of lipase, protease, amylase and cellulase enzymes and 12 selectively adapted spore-type microbes to demolish grease, oils, proteins, starches, and long-chain fatty acids – the #1 cause of commercial drain failures. The formulation stays fluid down to 40 °F (4 °C) and performs across a wide pH 4 to 10.6 range, so grease never re-solidifies in cold overnight lines.
How the Bioenzymatic 3 Step Process Works
- Dose – pour NT-MAX into a floor drain, vent stack etc., or connect to a dosing pump for hands-free delivery. A high-viscosity carrier floats on standing water, maximizing contact time at the grease layer.
- Digest – enzymes liquefy FOG while bacteria double every 30 minutes, oxidizing waste to CO2 and water and neutralizing offensive H2S odors.
- Defend – residual microbes form a self-renewing biofilm on pipe walls, preventing new grease buildup, pest-attracting films, and odors.
Operational Payoffs
- Slash pump-out frequency from monthly to quarterly or longer.
- Eliminate late-night emergency plumbing calls.
- Keep grease liquid in cold pipes; no overnight solidification or morning blockages.
- Floating formulation extends dwell time for deeper digestion.
- Extend interceptor and pipe life by avoiding caustic chemicals, safe for aging cast-iron, galvanized, copper and PVC lines.
- Pass health, pest, and FOG inspections with confidence by removing grease films that attract fruit flies, roaches, mice and rats.
- Avoid costly health-code violations and surprise FOG inspections.
Eco & Compliance Advantages
- 100% biodegradable, non-pathogenic cultures – safe for staff, pets, and waterways.
- Reduces BOD, COD, and TSS before discharge, lowering surcharge fees.
- Non-corrosive alternative to sodium hydroxide or acids.
- Meets Prop 65, GreenSeal®, and EU REACH guidelines.
- Neutralizes hydrogen-sulfide odors instead of masking them.
- Helps municipalities prevent manhole overflows and sewage-spill fines.
Flexible Manual or Automatic Treatment
NT-MAX can be applied manually into drains, vent stacks, traps, and interceptors, or connected to an automatic dosing pump for consistent hands-free grease and odor control.
- Manual pour: Best for targeted treatment, maintenance routes, and problem drains.
- Automatic dosing: Best for high-volume kitchens, grease traps, interceptors, and lift stations that need daily treatment.
- Continuous protection: Helps keep fats, oils, grease, proteins, starches, and odor-causing waste under control.

Reviews

We manage a 12 story apartment building with over 80 units. For the past two years, we've had our service provider apply NT-MAX liquid by pouring it down the main roof vent stacks once a month. Before starting the program, we dealt with frequent slow drains on the lower floors and occasional backups. Since implementing the monthly rooftop treatments, those issues have decreased significantly. Drains are flowing much better, and we've had far fewer resident complaints. We still schedule one annual pipe cleaning, but emergency service calls have dropped noticeably. The process is straightforward. The crew accesses the roof, pours the treatment, and lets it work its way down the stacks. Overall, it's been a worthwhile addition to our maintenance routine.
Verified Purchase
We operate the central kitchen at a 1,200-inmate medium-security facility where we prepare over 3,000 meals per day. Our 2,000-gallon grease interceptor used to require pumping every three to four weeks due to heavy FOG from frying and dishwashing. For the past 4 years we have been applying a liquid treatment directly into the grease trap once per week. The treatment has kept the grease layer noticeably thinner, reduced odors, and extended our pump-out schedule from bi-monthly to every 6 months or so. This has become a reliable part of our maintenance program.
Verified Purchase
NT-MAX effectively keeps our drains clear. Note, it can stain skin temporarily green, so wear gloves. Aside from that, does the job. Two months with zero backups in our lines.
Verified Purchase
We had roaches hanging out by the mop area attracted to the grease. Started using NT-MAX regularly and the grease buildup is way less, plus fewer bugs. Seems much cleaner in the trap.
Verified Purchase
Rare cold weather last year slowed our drain lines significantly. NT-MAX stayed fluid, effectively keeping lines clearer and saving our dishwashers from dealing with unpleasant backups.
Verified Purchase
We were tired of needing pumpouts chronically to avoid random backups usually messing up our weekend prep. After starting with NT-MAX, we’ve cut pump-outs down to once every three months. Staff noticed right away because the sinks just stay clear now. Big improvement overall.
Verified Purchase
Our bakery had odor and fly issues from the floor drains last year. NT-MAX was suggested by another bakery owner. Within a few days, odors noticeably declined, and fly presence significantly reduced. Good product.
Verified Purchase
Our place used to have grease-trap backups twice a month. After trying NT-MAX, the sink flows much better, odors noticeably improved and we still dose consistently to keep results. We’ve skipped a couple pump-outs now, saving some money, and our grease service says things look cleaner.
Verified Purchase
NT-MAX allowed us to reduce service frequency. Alarms have dropped off, and pests around drains has improved. My only complaint is the lid doesn't reseal as easily as I'd prefer.
Verified Purchase
I run a food-truck kitchen that struggled each winter as grease hardened overnight. NT-MAX did the job, loosening buildup noticeably after the first few days. It has a 'clean' smell during pouring, and it works reliably.
Verified Purchase
You gotta start with a clean grease trap first, then keep using NT-MAX regularly. It’s not some miracle cure, but it definitely keeps grease from building up so fast. We’re saving money by reducing how often we need pumping, so it’s worth it.
Verified Purchase
Our pub faced repeated FOG violations that get published constantly. Since implementing regular NT-MAX treatments, our grease buildup declined a decent amount. Inspectors approved quickly on their last visit. Good product and a very minor scent.
