RootX: The Cost Cutting
EPA approved solution to root intrusion |
|
Imagine eliminating pipeline root intrusion
in sewer and storm lines. Imagine doing it with existing crews and
equipment, using a product that's accepted by the EPA in all 50 states. |
|
RootX foam kills roots. |
|
The patented foaming herbicidal formula kills
roots and inhibits regrowth - even at the top of the pipe, where 90% of
intrusion occurs. Used alone - or after mechanical root-cutting when
blockage is severe - RootX kills roots so that they naturally begin to decay
within 12 weeks. Any remaining roots are stunted. Nine months later, roots
are virtually gone and the pipe is at full capacity. Contrast that with an
untreated pipe - roots grow back thicker and more aggressively within nine
months, causing blockages again. |
|
Add RootX into your maintenance
program. |
|
 By
including RootX in your maintenance program, you can eliminate blockages and
overflows caused by roots. You'll reduce labor costs by using RootX.
Treatment takes under 30 minutes - any crew member can do it. Applied into a
manhole or vault, RootX saves man hours and money. RootX can be applied
directly from the package or with the FDU 100 (Foam Dispersal Unit) which
attaches to any jetter hose like a nozzle. These simple application
procedures allow for root control where and when it's needed.
Reduce the environmental costs of root
control, too. Unlike some treatments, RootX is accepted by the EPA for use
in sanitary and storm pipes. It's non-caustic, non-fumigating and
non-carcinogenic. Surrounding vegetation is unharmed. RootX also enhances
bacterial growth, protecting wastewater treatment plants and septic systems.
The RootX formula can make your sewer crews
root control professionals! Can you imagine using any other root control
method? |

RootX Municipal Guarantee |
|
RootX will warranty that any line treated
with RootX will not plug or backup due to a living tree root obstruction for
a period of 24 months after application! Application must be made in
accordance with directions for use. This guarantee applies only to pipeline
stoppages caused by live tree roots. It does not apply to stoppages caused
by grease or other foreign matter; flat, collapsed, or deformed pipes; or
flooding caused by a surcharged or plugged pipe downstream from the treated
section.
If within 24 months a blockage occurs due to
live tree roots in a treated section, RootX will replace the amount of
product used for that section of pipe at no cost. This warranty covers the
RootX product only and will not compensate for service time or labor. |
