Hot Water Weeders
Hot Water Weeders
Easy and Silent Weed Control
Treating weeds with 100°C water: The hot air water instantly causes a thermal shock that disrupts the chlorophyll-producing part of the plant, preventing photosynthesis. The plant then dries out naturally, with visible results within a few hours.
Eco Weedkiller offers new technology for weed control based on hot water. The water is heated via electricity and then kept warm in an insulated tank. The device will keep its warmth (more than 100 degrees Celsius) for at least eight hours after disconnecting the power. The device does not need to be connected to the electricity network or water supply during use. You can go wherever you wish.
There are versions with a 300 litre and 600 litre storage tanks as well as a small Garden version with a 25 litre water tank.
Using water allows great penetration into the soil, allowing successful treatment of perennial plants with more established root systems in many situations. The rule of thumb is that 2–2.5 litres of hot water is needed per square metre in areas with 100% greenery coverage. This means that 300 litres of water is enough for 100–150 green square metres.
