Frequently asked questions

What services do you offer?

[RV Rapid Rooter specialize in providing comprehensive cleaning solutions for RV holding tanks, including black tanks and gray tanks. Our services involve thorough hydrojetting to remove built-up debris, odors, and blockages, ensuring optimal functionality and cleanliness.

How does your hydrojetting technique work?

Hydrojetting utilizes high-pressure water jets to dislodge and flush away contaminants from the interior surfaces of RV holding tanks. This powerful technique effectively removes debris, bacteria, and other substances, leaving the tanks clean and fresh.

Do you offer mobile service?

Yes, our mobile service brings convenience directly to our customers' RV site, whether you're parked at a campground, RV park, or residential property, to perform our cleaning services at your convenience. We generally use between 100 to 200 gallons of water. To facilitate this, it's essential that your site is equipped with full- hook-ups, including a sewer dump, city- or park-pressured water, and 110-volt electric service (30 & 50 amp service is ok, we have adapters).

How long does the cleaning process take?

However, our goal is to complete the service efficiently while ensuring thorough and effective cleaning. On average, the process takes approximately 90 minutes for an RV with 1 black tank and 1 gray tank.

Is your cleaning process environmentally friendly?

Indeed, our cleaning process prioritizes environmental friendliness and safety for both RV owners and their surroundings. We refrain from using chemicals and instead rely on eco-friendly techniques, primarily utilizing hot water when available. This approach minimizes our environmental footprint while still achieving exceptional results in RV tank cleaning.

How often should RV holding tanks be cleaned?

The frequency of tank cleaning depends on factors such as usage, storage conditions, and personal preferences. As a general guideline, we recommend scheduling tank cleaning at least once a year to maintain optimal hygiene and prevent issues such as odor buildup and clogs.

Can you clean tanks that have been neglected for a long time?

Yes, our hydrojetting technique is highly effective at removing even stubborn build-up and debris from neglected tanks.
