Frequently Asked Questions
Is the TubShroom a safer alternative to chemical drain cleaners like Drano?
Yes. It prevents clogs mechanically, so you never need to pour harsh chemicals down the drain that can damage pipes, harm skin, or release fumes.
Can my kids be in the bath while the TubShroom is installed?
Yes. The silicone has no sharp edges, no small detachable parts, and poses no choking, cutting, or chemical risk to children.
Is the TubShroom safe to use when bathing pets?
Yes. The soft, non-toxic silicone is gentle and contains no chemicals that could irritate a dog or cat during a bath.
Does the TubShroom eliminate the need for a plumber to come into the home?
In most cases, yes. By catching hair before it enters the pipes, it prevents the hair clogs that are the most common reason to call a plumber.
Can the TubShroom reduce the risk of a flooded bathroom from a slow drain?
Yes. By keeping water flowing freely, it reduces the standing water and overflow risk that come with a partially clogged tub.
For a family with small children, is the TubShroom a safe daily-use product?
Yes. It stays seated in the drain, has no moving parts, and is made of inert food-grade silicone that is safe for households with kids.
Will the TubShroom help households that are sensitive to strong chemical smells?
Yes. Because it prevents clogs without chemicals, you can avoid the strong fumes of products like Drano or Liquid-Plumr.
Is the TubShroom safer for old or corroded pipes than a chemical cleaner?
Yes. Chemical drain cleaners can eat away at older metal or PVC pipes over time, while the TubShroom prevents clogs with zero chemical exposure.
Is the TubShroom safer than an open flame or electrical device?
Yes. It is a passive silicone tool with no heat, flame, batteries, or electrical components, making it one of the safest drain solutions on the market.
How does the TubShroom compare to a plunger in terms of safety?
A plunger can splash dirty water and require physical effort, while the TubShroom is a passive prevention tool that keeps the drain clear so you never need to plunge.
How does the TubShroom compare to a chemical drain cleaner for pet households?
Chemical cleaners leave residues that pets can ingest by licking the tub, while the TubShroom leaves no chemical residue and is completely pet-safe.
Is the TubShroom safe for septic systems?
Yes. Because it prevents hair physically rather than chemically, it is fully compatible with septic systems and will not disrupt the bacterial balance.
Will the TubShroom hold up safely over years of daily use?
Yes. The durable silicone is built to last, and many users report reliable performance even after a full year of daily showers.
Does the TubShroom pose any risk of coming loose and going down the drain?
No. It is designed to fit standard 1.5 to 1.75 inch drains with firm suction, and it stays seated under normal water flow.
How do I install the TubShroom in my bathtub drain?
Simply place the TubShroom inside the drain opening. The flexible silicone compresses to fit standard 1.5 to 1.75 inch drains and stays in place with natural suction. No tools, adhesives, or assembly required.
How do I clean the TubShroom after it collects hair?
Lift the TubShroom out of the drain, wipe the wrapped hair off with a tissue or paper towel, and place it back in the drain. The whole process takes a few seconds and requires no disassembly.
How do I use the TubShroom when I want to take a bath instead of a shower?
Lift the TubShroom out of the drain, set it aside, and insert a regular bathtub stopper to fill the tub. When you are done, drain the tub, pop the TubShroom back in, and wipe it down.
Does the TubShroom fit my bathtub drain?
It fits any standard bathtub drain between 1.5 inches and 1.75 inches in diameter, which covers the vast majority of US household tubs.
Does the TubShroom work with pop-up drain stoppers or trip-lever drains?
It works best with standard open drains. For pop-up or trip-lever drains, you typically need to remove the internal mechanism first so the TubShroom can sit directly in the drain opening.
What is included in the box when I order the TubShroom?
The box contains one TubShroom in your selected color. Nothing else is required to use it, and there are no batteries, filters, or replacement parts to buy separately.
Will the TubShroom slow down my water flow or cause standing water?
No. The patented design allows water to flow freely around the silicone while catching only hair, so your tub drains normally during use.
Is the TubShroom safe for homes with septic systems?
Yes. The TubShroom is a physical catcher made of inert silicone, so it introduces no chemicals that could disrupt a septic system.
What is the difference between a drain hair catcher and a chemical drain cleaner?
A drain hair catcher like the TubShroom is a physical tool that prevents hair from entering the drain in the first place. A chemical drain cleaner is a reactive product used after a clog has formed, and it works by dissolving material with harsh chemicals that can damage pipes, harm the environment, and pose safety risks. Prevention with a hair catcher is generally safer, cheaper, and more effective than reacting with chemicals.
