Hydro Jetting

Hydro jetting uses a high-pressured beam of water to clear blockages in drains and pipes.

One of the most frequently used appliances in our homes is our drains. Drains are used tens of times each day from activities such as washing dishes or taking a shower. Due to its extensive usage, drains have a high possibility of experiencing blockage within its pipes, especially if thick substances get stuck within the drain’s pipes. This can result in a clogged drain which will limit/prevent active water flow within its pipes. However, thick substances on pipes can be disposed of through hydro jetting.

This method is best for severe blockages such that the jet’s pressure is strong enough to break through solids such as tree roots. However, if your pipes are already damaged directly, it is not recommended to use hydro jetting before getting a camera inspection on the pipe. You should contact a plumbing professional at Plumbers Near Me to get a professional opinion on whether or not hydro jetting is the best cleaning method for your pipes.

How do I know if my plumbing system needs to be hydro-jetted?

Unsure if your pipes need hydro jetting? There are a couple of factors that can help you determine if your home may need hydro-jetting service:

Blockage in drainage pipes

E.g. blockage of your sink drain, causing debris to stagnate within your pipes

Unusual pipe noises

Unusual pipe noises typically indicate that the vent stack is unclean
If it is left unclean, this could affect your water pressure and even potentially release harmful gases into your home

Odd drain odours

A rise in your water bill

Damaged pipes

When should I use hydro jetting over other cleaning methods:

Hydro jetting may be more powerful than other cleaning methods such as a drain shake, but the drain shake would be more suited for less severe blockages. If the clogged pipe in your home is already weak and damaged, hydro jetting could cause even further damage to the pipe. On the other hand, a drain shake can clean out substances without damaging weakened pipes. However, if the width of a pipe is greater than the drain shake, then it will not be able to clean out your pipes effectively. Based on this, drain shaking is best suited for minor blockages while hydro jetting is effective when dealing with severe blockages caused by solid substances in the pipe.
