Dissolves slowly.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>How to use: <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>To clear partial stoppage: <\/strong>Use two to four pounds in a single application. Pour R-D into toilet bowl nearest sewer line (1\/2 lb.) at a time and flush for each 1\/2 lb. to be sure all crystals will be carried to the sewer line &#8211; OR &#8211; remove clean out plug and pour entire package directly into sewer line. Flush into sewer with water. NEVER POUR R-D INTO SINK OR TUB DRAINS.<\/p>\n<p><strong>To clear complete stoppage: <\/strong>Some flow must be restored using a snake or sewer rod to enable dissolved R-D to travel to the root clogged portion of the sewer. Use four to six pounds at one time, or four pounds for two consecutive weeks. In most cases, several days must be allowed for the infiltrating roots to die, decay, and wash away after absorbing dissolved R-D. Patience will be rewarded by the results of this proven method of root control.<\/p>\n<p><strong>To prevent root stoppages: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\">House and building sewer connections: Use two pounds of R-D twice each year. Use same method as described above for partial stoppages. To avoid wasting R-D by flushing it through a largely unobstructed sewer, apply it in the evening before retiring or during other low flow periods for best results. Even small hair roots will absorb the chemical, preventing later blockage problems.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\">Sewer mains: Sprinkle two pounds once a year into each junction and terminal manhole. Be careful not to obstruct free flow of sewage.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\">Storm drains:\u00a0 Do not apply R-D during periods of heavy storm flow. When dry, introduce controlled flow with a hose. Use same dose as in sewer mains above. Serious conditions may require larger, more frequent dosage.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\">Clean-up: Wash with soap and water after handling. Launder clothing after contact with R-D before wearing again<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Recommended Dosage:\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>For instant treatment: 1 Kg per incidence. (If it is required, repeat the treatment)<\/li>\n<li>For preventive use:\u00a0 1Kg once or twice per year in order to prevent the growth of new roots in the pipeline<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Technical Specification Sheet: <a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/1J6o2dck7qbR-Xe86qgS7BRgYcsizXAeP\/view?usp=sharing\">Download<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>MSDS:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/1SgVzq1n-GDf8U8VaOGS8fKr_dTR9XGV1\/view?usp=sharing\">Download<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>R-D Root Destroyer is formulated to eliminate and prevent root growth in sewer-type lines.
