This biodegradable, non-toxic formula eliminates costly maintenance from clogged drains and overflows, ensuring HVAC systems run smoothly and efficiently with minimal effort. ## Description Left untreated, condensate pans can suffer from the build-up of sludge, scum and other accumulations. This build-up can cause odors as well as plugged drains and overflows, which in turn result in water damage. Pan-Treat is formulated with ingredients proven effective in cleaning and preventing these deposits, and its use will eliminate the extra maintenance costs associated with odors, plugged drains and overflows. Pan-Treat is extremely easy to use, and is safe, non-corrosive, non-toxic and biodegradable. The product is completely soluble in water and it does not form any deposits in the pan or drain. Directions for Use: Condensate Pans- If the pan is noticeably fouled, it can be cleaned by using two or more Pan-Treat tablets per ton of system capacity. Repeat until system is clean. For subsequent treatment or clean condensate pans, use one Pan-Treat tablet per ton each month. Position the tablets away from the drain and where they will achieve maximum contact with dripping condensate. This will assure more complete cleaning action and treatment. For larger systems, where the use of many tablets may be impractical, use Nu-Calgon's PanPads condensate pan products. Humidifiers- Pan-Treat tablets can be used to condition humidifier water in order to prevent odors and deposit build-up. Use 2-4 tablets every four to six weeks as needed. Clean and rinse out the humidifier reservoir on a regular basis. Review: Keep your AC running and avoid AC drain clogs - Great to keep your HVAC in a better condition when I was replacing my AC filter I’ve noticed that there’s a thick sludge in the drain pan and thise tablets helped me to dissolve it. Highly recommend. Review: Great products - works as intended - Live in FL and prior to using this on a weekly basis, my A/C drain line would clog with "growth" every few months depending on atmospheric conditions. Using this "as directed" -- I have a 4.5 ton A/C, I use 4 (not 5) tablets per week -- has worked to keep the drain line free and clear of the "growth" I would see previously. I feel that this is a good product that works as intended. ## Features - Preventing build-up of sludge & scum deposits that cause odors, plugged drains, and overflows - Eliminates the extra maintenance costs associated with odors, plugged drains & overflows - Extremely easy to use - completely soluble in water - Does not form any deposits in the pan or drain - Safe, non-corrosive, non-toxic and biodegradable ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B003N5AS60 | | ASIN | B003N5AS60 | | Best Sellers Rank | #27,361 in Health & Household ( See Top 100 in Health & Household ) #14 in Commercial Drain Openers #64 in Chemical Drain Openers | | Brand Name | Nu-Calgon | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (2,023) | | Date First Available | May 20, 2010 | | Domestic Shipping | Item can be shipped within U.S. | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00681001429665 | | International Shipping | This item can be shipped to select countries outside of the U.S. Learn More | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Type Name | Pan-Treat Condensate Tablets | | Item Weight | 0.75 Pounds | | Item model number | 4296-60 | | Manufacturer | Nu-Calgon | | Manufacturer | Nu-Calgon | | Material Feature | Biodegradable Warning | | Product Benefits | Prevents build-up, eliminates extra maintenance costs, safe and non-corrosive, does not form deposits, and cleans humidifier water | | Product Dimensions | 3 x 3 x 6 inches; 12 ounces | | Scent | Unscented | | State of Matter | Solid | | UPC | 681001429665 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Nu-Calgon - **Item Weight:** 0.75 Pounds - **Scent:** Unscented - **State of matter:** Solid ## Images ![4296-60 Pan-Treat Scum 200 Tablets - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81WeEu9iZfL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: I have a drained pan outside the unit in athe attic for backup. Is there another drain pan inside the unit?** A: All I know is thst mine doesn't. There's supposed to be a water level switch that shuts the unit off if the drain becomes plugged but mine recently failed and I had water dripping from a light fixture in the room below the unit. I am too old and stiff to crawl round the attic so I can't pur the tablets in the pan and I paid more than it would have cost to have a repair man come out a couple of times a year and do it for me. **Q: What's the difference between a single unit and a single pack in terms of quantity?** A: Same thing. **Q: What color are the tabs? and if blue, I would think that I would see this color in the outside drain area as it dissolves the muck, yes?** A: Yes the tablets are definitely blue but the condensate discharge looks like clear water. I've never collected it in a glass to see if there is any coloration but the appearance is just water without color. **Q: Do these tablets deteriorate or chemically melt Styrofoam found in window air conditioners?** A: I emailed Nu-Calgon directly here's their answer:"Pan-Treat can be used in a window unit and will not harm the Styrofoam pan.Pat BrendelTech SupportNu-Calgon" ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Keep your AC running and avoid AC drain clogs *by K***K on November 17, 2025* Great to keep your HVAC in a better condition when I was replacing my AC filter I’ve noticed that there’s a thick sludge in the drain pan and thise tablets helped me to dissolve it. Highly recommend. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great products - works as intended *by D***Z on September 30, 2025* Live in FL and prior to using this on a weekly basis, my A/C drain line would clog with "growth" every few months depending on atmospheric conditions. Using this "as directed" -- I have a 4.5 ton A/C, I use 4 (not 5) tablets per week -- has worked to keep the drain line free and clear of the "growth" I would see previously. I feel that this is a good product that works as intended. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solid little maintenance tablets that do what they’re supposed to *by N***I on October 5, 2025* My HVAC tech (Parobek) recommended these to keep the overflow drain clear, and they’ve been great so far. I just drop one tablet into the small overflow tube and leave it to dissolve. They fit just right. I wear gloves since the tablets are a little chalky, but they’re easy to handle and take seconds to use. They dissolve slowly and keep the line clean without any smell or mess. For the price, you get a ton of tablets - enough to last a long time - so the value’s solid. It’s one of those simple maintenance steps that saves you from bigger problems later. ## Frequently Bought Together - Nu-Calgon 4296-60 Pan-Treat Scum 200 Tablets - Nu-Calgon 417175 Evap Foam - Nu Calgon-4165-24 Drain Solve --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/4453301-4296-60-pan-treat-scum-200-tablets](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/4453301-4296-60-pan-treat-scum-200-tablets) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-02*
