Hydro jetting is a high-tech procedure that blasts high-pressure water to remove grease blockages from drains and sewer lines. The high pressure can cut through tree roots or break up any solid buildup that is clogging the pipes. The water that comes out of the nozzles sprays against the inside of the pipe to blast away debris that is stuck. It’s a safe technique to use for PVC, iron, and other types of piping as long as they’re in good condition. Cleaning your drains should be a number one priority for homeowners—not cleaning your drains can lead to bursting pipes and can cause a sewer flood in your yard.  

Hydro Jetting Vs. Snaking

What’s the difference between using a snake and hydro jetting? Some companies use a drain snake instead of a hydro jet, but it is not nearly as effective. Snaking will only poke holes through the grease buildup and does not get rid of it. If a snake is used to clean your clogged drains and pipes, you may have to work at them multiple times to fully clear them. 

How Your Home Can Benefit From Hydro Jetting

You can benefit from a hydro jetting service as it is a great preventative measure and is the most effective way to clean sewer lines and drains. The biggest contributors to clogged drains and sewer lines are fat, oil, and grease, also notoriously known as “FOG clogs” in the plumbing community. These types of clogs can be nasty and difficult to clear since fats, oil, and grease solidify as they flow through your plumbing system. These substances form a sticky coating inside the pipes that catch anything else that flows through, making it difficult to reach and clean. If you flush solids like wipes, paper towels, tissues, and feminine hygiene products down the drains in your home, they can catch onto FOG clogs, making them even harder to clear. The best way to remove debris and prevent buildup in your home’s pipes is by having your sewer line hydro jetted every year or so.
