This
thermal weeding system
by Ripagreen uses high velocity heat to control weeds naturally without chemicals. The scorching heat produced by this thermal weeder is strong enough that it "thermally shocks" weeds, causing weeds to die naturally by exploding their cells. No herbicides or hazardous chemicals required. You just need the propane tank (
NOT INCLUDED
).
For effective
thermal weed control
, the Ripagreen Thermal Weeder is best used along pathways, driveways, walkways, pavement, rockeries, alpine gardens, hilly terrain, and other hard-to-reach areas. Other popular uses for the Ripagreen include melting ice and snow in the winter, road surface marking, flame treatment, and plastic trimming.
Thermal Weeding Lance with Trigger Gun:
Capable of producing flame temperatures up to 400° F at 16", the Thermal Weeding Lance Extension creates a short, rigid, and high velocity flame accurately and safely. Heat is distributed in a line up to 16" wide, destroying weeds in one quick pass. The Thermal Lance has adjustable heating power and diffuses heat from the flame through a stainless steel nozzle. The nozzle swivels through 360° for accurate weeding in cluttered areas. The Mobile Cart has a device that allows you to direct the nozzle without removing the extension. Disassemble the lance and put the nozzle on the trigger gun for up close weeding in hard-to-reach areas. Since the Lance has low gas consumption, you can enjoy more than 6 hours of continuous use thanks to its 'click and start' ignition system.

Mobile Cart:
Designed to hold and transport the Thermal Weeding Lance, propane tank, and pipe, the Mobile Cart can squeeze in almost anywhere due to its compact size, allowing the user to easily move along narrow spaces and navigate between curbs and obstacles. With a simple adjustment, the Cart can adapt to each working mode (see below) and the size of the user. The handle is reversible around the steering column, allowing you to change between pushed and pulled ergonomic modes. The three puncture-proof wheels are wide so they can move back and forth over sandy and difficult terrain. The parking brake on one of the wheels keeps the unit stable when on a slope.
Epoxy painted steel tube frame
33", 36", 39" tiller height settings

Five Modes of Use:
Push Mode (One User): For treating long straight lines with 16" heating width or weeding along walls or pavements.
Pull Mode (One User): Allows for quick movement from location to location without having to carry or forget something.
Pull Mode (Two Users): Improves efficiency in situations when you are constantly switching between moving and weeding.
Carry Mode (One User): For weeding around trees and in narrow, hard-to-reach areas.
Vehicle Mode (Two Users): Great for treating large, accessible but scattered areas of abnormally positioned plants. One person drives the vehicle and positions it at the center of treatable areas, while their partner weeds with the lance.
