ROUTINE SEPTIC MAINTENANCE
Three months of treatment. One simple bottle.
HOTROD 90 is a research-backed biochemical septic treatment designed for routine residential maintenance. It works with the biology your system depends on instead of treating the septic system like something to disinfect.
Designed to support fermentation and the microbial processes involved in breaking down organic waste.
HOTROD is designed to influence pathways associated with unwanted gas production, while odor reduction is a practical benefit frequently reported by customers in real systems.
Selected salt-tolerant microorganisms are designed to remain active where water-softener salts and other salinity stress are present.
Supports biological breakdown of organic material associated with biomat and is designed to help manage the conditions that can contribute to excessive buildup.
SELECTIVE BY DESIGN
Support the digestion. Reduce the gas.
Harsh disinfectants can suppress the microbial activity a septic system relies on. HOTROD takes a different approach: supporting fermentation and biological waste breakdown while influencing pathways associated with unwanted gas production under tested conditions.
Research results reflect controlled laboratory bioreactor conditions. Actual field performance can vary with system design, loading, wastewater chemistry, temperature, maintenance, and other operating conditions.

What homeowners usually want to know.
How often do I use HOTROD 90?
HOTROD 90 is designed as a three-month treatment option. Apply according to the product label and repeat on the recommended schedule.
What if my water softener discharges into my septic system?
HOTROD includes biologicals selected to tolerate wastewater conditions where salinity may be present. The goal is to help manage sodium and salt stress while supporting the biological environment of the system.
Does HOTROD help with drain-field biomat?
HOTROD is designed to help manage excessive biomat buildup by supporting biological breakdown of organic material associated with biomat and by influencing pathways associated with unwanted gas production under tested conditions. It is not a guarantee that a hydraulically failed drain field can be restored.
Is HOTROD just another bacteria-in-a-bottle product?
No. HOTROD is a multi-component biochemical treatment platform that integrates patented chemistry with microbial and enzymatic activity to influence biological waste degradation.
When should I choose HOTROD 180 instead?
Choose HOTROD 180 when you prefer an extended six-month routine maintenance interval. HOTROD 90 is designed around a three-month interval.
