Understanding Hydro Jetting

Accessing and cleaning out sewer lines is no one’s idea of a good time. Sewer lines are designed to handle all kinds of filth with minimal attention, but sometimes they need a little TLC. Hydro jetting is often the answer to homeowners’ clogged sewer lines. 

With professional hydro jet drain cleaning from a qualified local plumber, homeowners can kiss their sewer line clogs goodbye. Here is a quick guide to help everyone understand hydro jetting, including when it’s needed and why it’s beneficial.  

How Can Hydro Jetting Solve Tough Sewer Line Clogs? 

Hydro jetting is a highly effective method for clearing clogs and debris from pipes. This process involves the use of high-pressure water to unclog and clean pipelines. The device consists of a long hose with an attached nozzle at one end. The other end of the hose is connected to a powerful machine that pumps water at extremely high pressure. As the pressurized water is released from the nozzle, it effectively breaks up any blockages or debris that may be present in the pipes.

This method is particularly useful for unclogging drain and sewer lines that are heavily clogged with grease, hair, food particles, tree roots, and other types of debris. The high-pressure water not only clears the blockage but also effectively removes any buildup or residue from the walls of the pipes, which helps restore the water flow in the pipes and prevents future clogs from occurring.

Signs That Hydro Jetting Is Necessary 

Several signs may signal the necessity of hydro jetting to get rid of a clog. Knowing these signs can tip homeowners off that they need to take action before the problem gets worse. If homeowners notice a gradual slowdown in draining or standing water that won't drain, unpleasant odors emanating from drains, gurgling sounds during drainage, or backups in the drains, these indicate a clog.  

Additionally, if homeowners experience clogs often, this is another sign to get hydro jetting since other drain cleaning methods can leave behind residue that can form more clogs, but hydro jetting will clean the pipe and clear residue to help avoid future clogs from forming.  

Why Is Hydro Jetting Beneficial? 

Hydro jetting offers several advantages over alternative drain cleaning methods. Hydro jetting can thoroughly clean the entire pipe, removing not only the clog but also the built-up residue on pipe walls, helping prevent additional clogs from forming. This makes hydro jetting a more lasting solution to clogs than drain snakes and other methods, reducing the likelihood of quick re-clogging.

Unlike chemical drain cleaners with harsh chemicals that can damage and corrode pipes, hydro jetting relies on water, making it an environmentally friendly option that is safe for lines that aren’t fragile when done by professionals. A plumber can inspect the pipes to determine if they can handle the water pressure needed for hydro jet drain cleaning to prevent problems.
