Stronger Together: Our Drain Zipper Partnership with Emergency Plumbing Heating & Air

A clean bathroom and a clear drain go hand in hand. That’s why we’re proud to partner with our Delaware neighbors at Emergency Plumbing Heating & Air to help local homeowners stop clogs before they start.
What is the partnership?
Emergency Plumbing Heating & Air teamed up with The Modern Maid to put Drain Zippers into the hands of homeowners around Delaware County. Our team already spends every day in local bathrooms and kitchens, so we’re in the right place to share a simple tool that keeps drains running the way they should between cleans.
The crew at Emergency Plumbing celebrated the partnership on their own blog, too. You can read their post, Emergency Plumbing Partners With The Modern Maid. Thank you for the kind words, friends!
What is a Drain Zipper?
A Drain Zipper is a thin, flexible plastic strip with small barbs along its sides. Slide it down a bathroom sink or tub drain, give it a little wiggle, and pull it back up. The hair and soap buildup that was starting to collect comes right out with it. No harsh chemicals, no tools, and it takes less than a minute.
Why do bathroom drains clog?
Hair, soap residue, and everyday debris gradually collect inside bathroom drains. By the time a drain starts moving slowly, a clog may already be forming. Pulling out that buildup early, every few weeks, is one of the easiest ways to keep a small annoyance from turning into a stubborn clog or an unexpected plumbing problem.
It’s also a safer habit than pouring products down the drain. Mixing drain cleaners, or using one right after another, can cause a dangerous reaction. We explain why in the cleaning products you should never mix.
When should you call a plumber?
A Drain Zipper is for regular upkeep, not for every problem. If a drain is still slow after you’ve cleared it, if several drains back up at once, or if you notice gurgling or odors, it’s time for the pros. Emergency Plumbing Heating & Air offers professional drain cleaning and clearing for homes across Delaware and Central Ohio.
Local businesses looking out for local homes
Emergency Plumbing Heating & Air has served Delaware since 1977, and The Modern Maid has been caring for homes here since 2003. We both believe that taking care of the details today prevents bigger headaches tomorrow.
