If you live in Florida, the answer is probably yes. That’s the exact problem we kept running into—again and again. After seeing how common and costly these clogs were, we started asking: Why isn’t there a better way to stop them before they happen?
We learned that a naturally occurring bacteria called Zoogloea is the cause. Zoogloea grows in the AC drain pan inside the air handler and in parts of the drain line that don’t drain well, creating a white slime that eventually clogs the system.
Being a robotics engineer with over 36 years of experience, our founder, Richard Musco, knew an automatic solution was needed—something reliable, consistent, easy to install and inexpensive to refill.
That idea led to dozens of 3D-printed prototypes and over 100 real-world installations in customer homes experiencing a variety of AC drain problems.
Over 2.5 years of testing, the Zoog Zapper evolved. We fine-tuned the design and confirmed that Steramine—a safe, effective sanitizer used by HVAC professionals in drain pan tablets—was the ideal treatment fluid.
But we didn’t stop there.
We also developed the ZoogOut (patented), a universal vacuum adapter that connects to any wet/dry vac to remove blockages, and the ZoogFlush, a flush kit that allows users to clear their AC drain line with a garden hose. Both devices are included with the system.
We provide our customers with a complete toolkit for long-term drain line protection.
We’re a family-run company, not a big corporation. We care about solving everyday problems with smart, affordable, reliable solutions.
