Sealed Unit Parts Co., Inc. Acquires Aquasolve Chemical Company

Sealed Unit Parts Co., Inc. (SUPCO), a global manufacturer and distributor of HVACR and Appliance parts, announced that it has acquired Aquasolve Chemical Company. Based in Houston, Texas, Aquasolve has manufactured Slime-Out Condensate Pan Conditioning Tablets for over 40 years. The acquisition brings the Slime-Out manufacturing process to SUPCO’s United States based facilities and enhances SUPCO’s condensate and chemical product line offering. 

Developed in 1976 by chemist and prior owner H.P. Young, Slime-Out is a popular tablet treatment that prevents the plugging of air conditioning condensate drip pans and drain lines without any chlorine or noxious fumes. The ingredients in the tablet work synergistically, are quick to dissolve and have a long lasting effect. It is one of the few treatments that will not stain the exterior wall of a structure when the line drains outside. 

About Aquasolve Chemical Company, Inc. 
In 1976, mathematician and chemist H.P. Young invented Slime-Out tablets after a colleague challenged him to come up with an easier method than liquid to clean out condensate drains. He decided to branch out on his own to make the tablets and founded Aquasolve Chemical Company. Slime-Out gained popularity with HVACR contractors as a simple, non-damaging and economically positive treatment for condensate maintenance.
