A PVC soil line never has internal root problems.

Can't you just **** in the neighbors sink?

The guys at the Ridgid plumbing forum swear by it. http://www.rootx.com/ Thanks for the link but it looks like I can't purchase it. Looks like they market it as a yearly maintenance thru rooter companies

Use copper sulfate Used to be k19 root killer IMMEDIATELY after using the root cutting blades. Works best when freshly cut Then use it routinely
Hey Rooter guys What would be the best solution to use to maintain keeping roots out of the drain? Copper sulfate or something else? Rodded out the 4" cast pipe in June. Got a crapload (pun intended) of roots out. It's blocking up again. This is at our summer home and not sure if the lack of using the plumbing has anything to do with it or the unusually dry summer combined with sandy dirt. It's clogged up again. As far as I know, it's 4" cast until it meets with pvc the city installed maybe 10 years ago. Thanks
