The RootX Intrusion Solution

Unique Foaming Action With a unique foaming action, RootX reaches the top of the pipe where 90% of the root intrusion occurs. Sufactants in the RootX formula strip away grease and grime on the roots, and an EPA registered herbiside (dichlobenil) kills the roots on contact and prevents their growth. How does RootX work? RootX is packaged as two dry powder components in one container. When these components come in contact with water they create a sticky foam that fills the entire pipe, coating the roots and pipeline surfaces with the RootX formula. RootX leaves a residue above the water line that continues to kill the roots and inhabits new growth for up to 12 months.

Save Money RootX can be used with or without mechanical root cutting equipment. Some situations such as a root blockage will require mechanical removal of the roots. Mechanical removal is an excellent short term solution. However, if the roots are cut and left untreated, they will come back bigger and stronger. This process will eventually destroy a sewer line requiring the line to be dug up and replaced. The replacement of a sewer would cost much more than an annual treatment with RootX.

Simple It's simple and fast. The patented RootX formulation foams on contact with water, filling the entire pipe to reach the top where 90% of pipeline root intrusion occurs. From start to finish, a RootX application takes less than 30 minutes whether you are working with main or lateral lines.

Effective It's an effective and proven treatment. The active ingredient in RootX is the aquatic herbicide Dichlobenil that has been used for years to control aquatic weeds. RootX contains surfactants, degreasing agents that strip away the grime on roots, allowing Dichlobenil to penetrate the root ends. RootX is labled for use in both sanitary and storm pipes and is not a restricted use product.

Proven It's a proven solution. RootX promotes bacterial growth that assists in the decomposition of dead roots. For over a decade thousands of municipalities and Professional Drain Cleaners depend on RootX for their maintenance solution.
