Blast Weeds With Steam




These hefty-looking machines are Green Steam Weed Killers, and they will soon be patrolling the streets of San Francisco, annihilating unwanted weeds without the use of pesticides. The City?EUR??,,????'?????<

The Greensteam Weed Eliminator does not require pesticides. The self-contained non-toxic weeder uses the power of a 12-volt vehicle battery and clean burning propane. No gasoline engine is involved, and the only electrical source required is for daily charging of the battery.

The steam gun, or steam thrower uses a Patented technology, which efficiently burns propane within a chamber that is surrounded with coil that transports water. A 12-volt pump pressurizes the water. The water, now converted to steam exits through nozzles at the bottom gun.

This steam explodes the cells of the targeted vegetation, instantly killing the weed down to its roots. This 3rd generation model GS-5000 is engineered to perfection. It is very easy to use and maintain.

The 3-wheel cart features a unique rear foot pedal that operates as a brake when going downhill. It will also lock the unit 'in place', preventing it from rolling.

The Greensteam is mainly a mechanical device, only using the 12volt battery to power the pump. There is very little maintenance, due to the fact that there are no computer boards or many electrical components. Troubleshooting is a breeze.

The machines work well on sidewalk intruders that are surrounded by concrete. It used to be that when we saw a bank of brown weeds, it meant an application of glyphosate. Now we won’t have to avoid that little patch of death.
