Preventing Urinal Blockages


Preventing Urinal Blockages using URIC® FREEFLO

If your urinal is already blocked, visit our Unblocking Urinals page.

The Problem: Recurring Blocked Urinals

Blocked urinals are one of the most common challenges in commercial and public washrooms. Even after a blockage is cleared, uric scale can quickly build up in traps and pipework, causing:

  • Restricted flow or repeated blockages
  • Unpleasant odours and hygiene issues
  • Disruption for staff, visitors, and customers
  • Increased cleaning and maintenance costs

Recurring blockages are not just inconvenient - they can also damage the reputation of your facility and increase operational costs if left untreated.

URIC FREEFLO Urinal Maintainer

Why it Happens

Uric scale forms when hard water combines with proteins in urine, gradually accumulating in urinal traps and pipework. Over time, this build-up narrows or blocks the system, creating odours and reducing functionality. Without regular treatment, blockages are almost inevitable in high-traffic areas such as offices, schools, hospitals, pubs, and public venues.

The Solution: URIC® FREEFLO

Chemassist provides URIC® FREEFLO, a specialist urinal maintenance chemical designed to prevent uric scale build-up and keep washrooms flowing freely.

URIC® FREEFLO is:

  • Safe for all surfaces, including stainless steel, plastics, and ceramics
  • Easy to apply, either manually or via automatic dosing pumps
  • Highly effective at reducing odours and preventing blockages before they occur

By using URIC® FREEFLO regularly, facilities teams can maintain hygienic, fully operational washrooms and minimise emergency interventions.
