Ecolab Ultra San 18.9 L Warewashing Sanitizer – Bulk Commercial Grade

Quick Answer

Ecolab Sanitizer Liquid Dishwashing Ultra 18.9 L (4.9 gal) bulk sanitizer for Canadian restaurants, hotels, cafeterias, and foodservice operators using low-temp dish machines or manual 3-compartment sink sanitizing. Delivers effective bacterial kill at 60°F/15°C minimum. ChickenPieces.com ships this 18.9 L pail Canada-wide from Calgary.

This is the Ecolab Ultra San concentrate in a 18.9 L pail – the chlorine-based sanitizer you'll find in dish rooms across Canada. Restaurant operators, hotel kitchens, and institutional foodservice teams use it for low-temperature dish machines and manual three-compartment sink sanitizing. One Calgary university kitchen I work with switched to this bulk format and cut their chemical reorder frequency by half during exam season.

Ecolab Sanitizer Liquid Dishwashing Ultra 18.9 L/4.9 Gallon Warewashing Sanitizer — Professional Grade for Canadian Food Service

This is a liquid concentrate that delivers 200 ppm available chlorine when mixed correctly – the standard for commercial sanitizing under Canadian food safety codes. It's NSF/ANSI 3 certified and EPA-registered, which means it's verified for use on food contact surfaces without a rinse in low-temp applications. The 18.9 L format is what high-volume operators choose when they want to reduce packaging waste and manage chemical costs per gallon of sanitizer solution.

Stocked by ChickenPieces.com at our Calgary distribution hub. Delivered Canada-wide to all 10 provinces and 3 territories in 2-5 business days.

Industry Insider Tip: Check your water temperature regularly – this sanitizer needs minimum 60°F (15°C) to activate properly. Colder water requires slightly higher dosage to maintain 200 ppm chlorine.

Jamie's Take · Senior Operator @ ChickenPieces

"I've had operators order this 18.9 L pail for busy season – one Calgary hotel goes through a pail every 10 days with 3 machine cycles per hour. The concentrate is stable even in cold storage; I keep a backup pail on hand. For high-volume dish rooms, I recommend ordering two pails minimum to avoid running out mid-shift."

In a commercial kitchen, the sanitizer step isn't optional – it's the difference between passing a health inspection and shutting down. This Ecolab Ultra San concentrate is what professional buyers specify because it's consistent batch to batch. You mix it directly into your low-temp dish machine's chemical port or your three-compartment sink's final rinse compartment. The 18.9 L pail saves floor space compared to stacking multiple smaller jugs. If you're building out a new kitchen or restocking for the season, check our non food section for compatible dispensing pumps and test strips.

Frequently Asked Questions

How to store Ecolab Sanitizer Liquid Dishwashing Ultra /4.9 Gallon for maximum shelf life?+
Store the 18.9 L pail upright in a cool, dry area between 40-100°F (4-38°C). Keep away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and acids. Ensure the lid is tightly sealed after each use to prevent contamination and evaporation. Proper storage gives up to 2 years shelf life from manufacture date.
Is Ecolab Sanitizer Liquid Dishwashing Ultra /4.9 Gallon compatible with standard commercial machines?+
Yes, this Ecolab Ultra San liquid is formulated for low-temperature dish machines, typically used with a chemical feed pump. It is compatible with most commercial washers like Hobart, Jackson, and Meiko, as long as they have a sanitizer port for liquid chemicals. Always verify the machine's pump works with chlorine-based sanitizers and follow the label for water temperature requirements (minimum 60°F/15°C).
What materials is Ecolab Sanitizer Liquid Dishwashing Ultra /4.9 Gallon made of?+
This product is a liquid concentrate made from water, sodium hypochlorite (chlorine bleach), sodium hydroxide (caustic soda), and surfactants/stabilizers. It is classified as a chemical sanitizer, not a food product. The material safety data sheet (MSDS) is available upon request through ChickenPieces.com. PPE (gloves and eye protection) should be used when handling.
How to maintain Ecolab Sanitizer Liquid Dishwashing Ultra /4.9 Gallon for long-term use?+
For long-term maintenance, always keep the pail sealed when not in use to avoid airborne contamination and chlorine degradation. Use a dedicated chemical dispensing system with a clean pick-up tube. Periodically inspect the pail for leaks or corrosion. Rotate stock – use older product first to ensure potency. Replace every 2 years if stored properly.
What are the dimensions and weight of the 18.9 L pail?+
The 18.9 L (4.9 gallon) pail dimensions are typically about 14 inches tall and 12 inches in diameter, but exact specs may vary by batch. Weight is approximately 42 lbs (19 kg) when full. For precise handling requirements, contact ChickenPieces.com customer service. The pail has a standard handle for manual carrying.
How long does a 18.9 L pail of Ecolab sanitizer last under typical commercial use?+
A mid-volume restaurant (100-150 covers/day) using a low-temp dish machine typically goes through one 18.9 L pail in about 3-4 weeks. Higher volume operations (200+ covers/day) may use a pail every 10-14 days. In a large cafeteria or hotel, a pail might last only 1-2 weeks. Always keep a backup pail on hand to avoid running out.
How should I clean and maintain the dispensing system for this sanitizer?+
Flush the chemical lines with fresh water weekly to prevent chlorine crystal buildup. Inspect the pick-up tube and strainer for blockages monthly. Replace the tubing every 6-12 months to avoid hardening. If using a peristaltic pump, check the tube condition regularly. Never mix with other chemicals – especially acids – inside the system.
What is the correct dilution ratio for this sanitizer?+
For low-temp dish machines, the typical dilution is 1-2 fl oz (30-60 mL) per gallon of water, aiming for 200 ppm available chlorine. Adjust based on water temperature and hardness. For manual 3-compartment sink sanitizing, mix according to the label to achieve 200 ppm. Use test strips to verify concentration regularly.
Is this Ecolab sanitizer safe for use on all dishware?+
Yes, it is safe for use on most dishware, glassware, and utensils when used at the recommended dilution. Avoid prolonged contact with soft metals like aluminum, brass, or copper – these may corrode. Rinse thoroughly after sanitizing. For delicate items like fine china with metallic trim, spot test before full use.
Can I use this Ecolab sanitizer in a high-temperature dish machine?+
This product is specifically designed for low-temperature (chemical sanitizing) machines, typically operating at 120-140°F (49-60°C) wash and 60-75°F (15-24°C) rinse. In high-temperature machines (180°F rinse), chlorine-based sanitizers are generally not needed and may degrade rapidly. Use a rinse additive instead. Always follow machine.
