Vaporooter is a combination of herbicides that are placed in sewer drains, as a foam, for the purpose of eliminating roots and preventing further structural damage of the sewer pipe caused by live tree roots.

Roots are killed and potential blockages are avoided. Only roots within the pipe and a very short distance outside the pipe are affected. Trees and shrubs immediately above ground are not harmed.

Vaporooter is ideal for household sewer drains where roots have been found to be the cause of blockages. Save money in the long term by vaporooting your drain rather than continual drain cleaning, resulting in structural damage to your pipes.

The intrusion of roots into sewers is probably the most destructive single element that faces those maintaining a waste water collection system.

Where root intrusion has occured, chemical treatment can be successful in destroying root masses. With proper application of Vaporooter, an effective herbicide, the roots in the sewer die, become brittle and slough off into the flow. It also inhibits growth of new roots for 2 to 7 years.
