FAQs:

Can Vamoosh products be used in septic tanks?

Yes, Vamoosh Pet Hair Dissolver and Vamoosh Washing Machine Cleaner are perfectly safe to use with a septic tank system.

Will Vamoosh work on a lower temperature wash?

Pet hair is very strong, so Vamoosh will only work on the longest, hottest cycle (between 85-95 degrees) where the temperature of the water helps Vamoosh dissolve the hair.

My washing machine doesn’t go up to 85/95 degrees celsius.

Vamoosh’s formula works on both pet hair and human hair (both of which are notoriously very tough to dissolve) and so in order for the formula to work, Vamoosh requires a temperature wash of 85-95 °C. During our research, we found that whilst some washing machines may not have a 85-95 °C wash as a standard setting, there is normally a temperature control that can be adjusted to 85-95°C manually.

Is it safe for the environment?

The impact on the environment was a high priority for us when developing the formula for Vamoosh, so we made sure that no harmful substances are released into the environment when using Vamoosh.

Why does Vamoosh need a high temperature wash?

Pet hair is very strong, so Vamoosh will only work on the longest, hottest cycle where the temperature of the water helps Vamoosh dissolve the hair.

How does Vamoosh work?

Vamoosh contains active oxygen that breaks down the keratin proteins that make up pet hair, dissolving the hair so it is washed away.

    In place of the usual supermarket products, I feel that this gives a better result when it comes to keeping the smell away longer .
