Affresh Disposal Cleaner uses high-density tablets that are specifically calibrated to resist dissolving instantly. This allows the disposal blades to break the tablet into small, abrasive granules that provide a mechanical scrubbing action against the walls of the grinding chamber. This process is designed to help remove the "biofilm" or slime that can accumulate over time in high-use kitchens.
Specifications show that the tablets use oxygen-based bleaching agents that meet EPA Safer Choice standards, making them a responsible choice for homes with septic systems. When used with hot water, the tablets create a controlled foam that expands roughly 400% more than standard liquid cleaners, ensuring the foam reaches the underside of the rubber sink flange.
The 3-pack of 9 tablets provides a multi-month supply for a typical family home. To ensure the tablet activates correctly, it is important to use a slow trickle of water rather than a full stream, which would flush the active granules down the drain before they can finish scrubbing the internal components.
If you prefer a simpler drop-in solution that focuses more on scent than mechanical scrubbing, the Bastion Lemon Drops offer a high-count alternative for daily freshening.
