Roto-Rooter Pipe Shield

Why Do I Need Pipe Shield?

Drains run slower and slower as greases, soaps, fats and detergents build up on the inner walls of your pipes and eventually cause blockage. With Roto-Rooter Pipe Shield, you can keep your drains running freely, quickly, safely and economically.


Biological Formula Works Like Mother Nature!

Roto-Rooter Pipe Shield utilizes the same technology as the environmentally safe products used to clean up oil spills in the ocean. Through natural biological activity, non-toxic, beneficial bacteria absorb the grease and organic buildups in your pipes and convert them into harmless by-products: carbon dioxide and water. In addition, a bio-film coats the inside of your drain pipes and continues to consume the organic wastes - until those wastes are gone. A single treatment typically last for several weeks.

No Harmful Chemicals!

Roto-Rooter Pipe Shield contains no acids or caustic ingredients like many of the drain openers you find at supermarkets or hardware stores. Roto-Rooter Pipe Shield will not harm your pipes - copper, PVC or iron - regardless of how often it's used. And it's safe for all drains - kitchen and bathroom sinks, bathtubs, showers and laundry tubs. Roto-Rooter Pipe Shield is safe for the environment, too! Some drain products contain solvents, which can inhibit bacterial action and cause problems at municipal treatment plants. Roto-Rooter Pipe Shield contains no solvents and is approved for use by municipalities and water-treatment facilities across the country.

Concentrated Power!

Roto-Rooter Pipe Shield is an economical concentrate that mixes at a ratio of one part Pipe Shield concentrate to eight parts water. Two ounces of Roto-Rooter Pipe Shield in each of your drains every month is your easiest and most economical way to ensure free-flowing drains year-round, year after year.

Roto-Rooter Root Destroyer

What To Do When You Suspect Roots Are Blocking Your Drain Lines And Sewer Pipes?

Roots from trees and shrubs frequently find their way into drain lines and sewer pipes through extremely small cracks, holes or poorly sealed joints. These tiny root hairs if not properly controlled can continue to grow inside your lines, blocking water flow and even causing the pipes to break.


Worst of all, once these roots grow in a specific direction, they'll continue to grow back in that same direction causing similar blockage problems later. So to really solve the problem once the offending roots are removed, you have to retard their future growth. In addition, your Roto-Rooter service technician can advise you on the necessary steps to prevent the problem from reoccurring.

For example, a twice-a-year application of Roto-Rooter Root Destroyer can retard the growth of roots near your drain line; all you have to do is pour the recommended dosage into your toilet bowl and flush the product into the line. Roto-Rooter Root Destroyer will kill only the roots growing into the pipes and will not affect the rest of your plant's root systems.

Roto-Rooter RootX

Rotox jugs— Kalamazoo, MI — Roto-Rooter of Southwest Michigan

RootX kills pipeline roots and restores pipe flow capacity

The patented RootX formula foams on contact with water to reach the top of the pipe where 90% of the roots are. Degreasing agents strip away grime so the RootX herbicide can penetrate the roots, killing them on contact. RootX sticks to the pipe walls, preventing re-growth for up to three years. Dead roots decay over time, restoring pipes to their full capacity.

Tough on roots; easy on pipes

RootX kills roots using the aquatic herbicide Dichlobenil. It’s non-caustic, non-fumigating and non-systemic, and it contains no diquat dibromide, copper sulfate or metam sodium. RootX will not harm pipes, septic systems or above-ground vegetation.

Roto-Rooter Septic Tank Treatment also contains growth promoters for vigorous bacterial activity, and-because it contains no solvents-it’s environmentally safe.
