Money Saver
Would RecommendI Purchase this product because my main sewer line has a "Belly" (plumbers term?) in it, so roots get into it and block it up. I used to go rent a sewer auger at least yearly and spend almost $100 in rental fees and put the smelly sewage coated machine in the back of our car. I treat with this 3 times a year and since I started I only had to rent the auger once because I forgot to treat my lines. That was 2 years ago, so this product is definitely a $$ saver.

Root Killer
Would RecommendI have a septic system & a lot of trees around -I use this periodically to help prevent roots from growing into my drain lines.....

Not for septic tanks
After reading the directions I noted that this is not for septic systems unless you have access to pour into the distrbution box directly. Otherwise product will settle in bottom of tank and be uneffective.

Zep Works!!!!!!!
Would RecommendEasy to use and it works on the roots. I have a big problem with roots due to the trees . If I put this down the line every 4-6 weeks it keeps the roots at bay. Cheaper than a plumbing company coming in to clear the lines.
