What is Hydro Jetting?

A clogged drain located deeply in the line will likely cause a bigger issue than you think. Blockages in sewer lines and plumbing systems could prevent water and waste from going down the drain. If these issues are taken for granted, it will cause the drain to overflow resulting in sewage backups.  Serious sewer problems may pose a health risk to you and your family and you wouldn’t want this to happen. So what is the best option to do in preventing this to occur? The answer? Hydro Jetting.  

What is Hydro Jetting?

Hydro Jetting is an advanced method of cleaning sewer and drain lines. It requires the use of high-tech equipment to clean clogged or slow sewer systems via a continuous blast of water at high pressure that can reach up to 5,000 PSI. The pressurized water that comes from the rotating nozzle will surge into the sewer lines to eliminate hard to remove blockages caused by potentially damaging materials including:

  • Grease
  • Mineral scale
  • Debris
  • Tree roots

Can Anyone Perform Hydro Jetting?

The process of hydro jetting can only be carried out by highly trained, professional plumbing contractors.  Since hydro jetting uses high-pressure water, this may cause irreversible damage if used in the wrong way, thus, it should be carefully operated and should not be handled by an inexperienced plumber.

Is Hydro Jetting a Good Option?

There are a lot of advantages that hydro jetting offers:

  • It is non-invasive, so no digging is required to fix a clogged pipe.
  • It is safe because hydro jetting doesn’t use chemicals to get rid of hard to remove blockages.
  • It is environmentally friendly since it uses pressurized water to remove clogs.
  • It provides fast relief because it cleans the drain instantly making your drain hassle-free.
