WaterSOLV™ CURATIVE
A highly acidic, extremely concentrated mixture designed to treat water hardness conditions. Additional amounts may be added for soil remediation as needed. The primary purpose is to treat water and improve soil quality by dissolving the bonds of bicarbonates, valence, and chlorides (including minerals, metals, and nutrients) to create re-hydratable nutrition. At the same time, it detoxifies sodium and chloride. Usage rates are typically one-tenth that of sulfurous acids while also reducing gypsum demand. It gradually restores soil pore space and lowers the associated bulk density, although this is not a necessity for the program to be effective. The product is not pH dependent and is safe on the skin. It is ideal for all forms of irrigation and is compatible with most fertilizers. It should be applied at the discharge side of pump stations using continuous chemical injection. The product positively impacts soil remediation, available nutrients, vegetation vitality, heat stress resistance, traffic tolerance, uniformity of play, and predictability. The efficiencies and offsets typically cover the entire cost of the WaterSOLV™ Program. Classified as a non-nutrient Auxiliary Soil and Plant Substance (ASPS) and certified by the California Department of Food and Agriculture, this product contains no nitrogen or urea, and its performance is guaranteed.
Use Rates: Linear to water hardness & bicarbonate, plus existing conditions (i.e. soil conditions). Water treatment typically ranges from ½ to as much as 4 gl. per million gallons of water and could be more. Keep in mind, water hardness is nutrition if properly treated. Use of 2 to 4 times the rates are prescribed to achieve water penetration, to gradually remediate/harvest the remaining elements in the soil for nutrition, then scaled back to treat water (and added nutrients) alone. It’s imperative to overtreat and over water 2x to 4x the treatment and water when sodium and or chloride soil levels are excessive. Typically, water use is reduced 15% due to water penetration and soils retention of the water.

WaterSOLV™ BC
HCT has long advocated for a comprehensive approach to sustainable water and soil treatment using Minerals, Metals, Microbes, and Sodium. Our solution, WaterSOLV™ BC, is a peroxide-based treatment that addresses microbial issues like slime and black layer caused by iron- and sulfate-reducing bacteria. It detoxifies soluble salts such as sodium and chloride, sequesters minerals and metals, and biodegrades into dissolved oxygen and water, a process we call continuous chemical aerification. When paired with WaterSOLV™ CURATIVE, it enhances peroxide levels without risking damage to vegetation, making it ideal for remediating black layer, root rot, and improving nutrient infiltration in various soils, including golf course greens. WaterSOLV™ BC is non-corrosive and should be applied at the suction side of pump stations—never directly into ponds. It is classified as a non-nutrient Auxiliary Soil and Plant Substance (ASPS) and is certified by the California Department of Food and Agriculture.
Use Rates: Linear to source water “Total Bacteria” with additional treatment for remediating soil conditions. Usually injected prior to the pump station. Usually from 1 qt. to 1.75 gl. per million gallons of water. Must be kept out of direct sunlight even when in use. See hazards for storage, handling and drainage. NEVER use without access to ample rinse water and eye protection.
Packaging: 53 gl drum – 300 gl tote
WaterSOLV™ pHIX
All-in-one solution: The power of WaterSOLV™ CURATIVE and WaterSOLV™ BC combined in a single container. This product is substantially diluted in water to ensure compatibility between the two formulations. It is extremely user-friendly and compatible with most fertilizers. You won't need to worry about soil conditions related to sodium or nitrate nitrogen (NO3-N). WaterSOLV™ serves as an excellent wetting agent for fertilizers and a highly effective remediation solution. It can address various issues, from cementation to slosh. The product can be used at aggressive rates, up to 500 ppm, on a weekly basis to improve soil conditions, including pore space, available nutrients, and oxygen levels. Additionally, it helps mitigate problems such as black layer formation, iron bacteria, and chloride salts toxicity.
Applied at rates near 1 gl. per acre on a weekly or semi-weekly basis for restoring infiltration and draining, flushing salts and matter (including bio films, bio-matter, black layer, SRB, minerals, metals, paint pigment and organic wastes, inclusive of toxic wastes and gasses).
pHix is considered a gateway product to trial and engagement with HCT’s concentrate products program and chemigation.
Packaging: 5 gl. pail – 55 gl. drum – 265 gl. tote
WaterSOLV™
WaterSOLV™ GROW is specifically designed for areas that are more biologically problematic rather than calcareous. It targets issues such as biofilm, biological waste, and areas that remain wet and contain a black layer, musty odors, or signs of fungi, mold, mildew, and yeast. Additionally, it's effective for conditions like root rot and sodium toxicity. What does GROW do? It facilitates bio-remediation, detoxifies sodium, adds oxygen, and sequesters soluble salts (including minerals and metals in water, as well as hardness). However, it is not intended for calcareous soil remediation—please refer to pHix for that purpose. Ultimately, GROW provides a healthier, nutrient-rich solution for vegetation uptake from water and soil.
