At Camjet, we pride ourselves on delivering effective, professional hydro jetting services for all your drain and sewer needs. Your guide to hydro jetting - in this guide, we’ll walk you through everything you need to know about hydro jetting—what it is, how it works, and how it can benefit you.
What Is Hydro Jetting?
Hydro jetting, also called drain jetting, is a modern method for cleaning and unblocking drains and sewer lines using high-pressure water. This technique is ideal for clearing tough blockages like grease, limescale, tree roots, and other debris from pipes.
Unlike traditional methods like drain snakes, hydro jetting doesn’t just punch a hole in the clog. Instead, it completely clears the blockage and cleans the pipe walls to prevent future buildup.
How Does Hydro Jetting Work?
Hydro jetting involves a special machine called a jetter. Here’s how it works:
Inspection First: A technician inspects the pipes using a video camera to locate the blockage and assess the pipe’s condition. This ensures hydro jetting is the right solution.
High-Pressure Water: Water is pressurized, often up to 3,500 psi, and released through a nozzle attached to a flexible hose.
Navigating Pipes: The hose can maneuver through tight bends and reach difficult areas. The water blasts away blockages and scours the pipe walls.
Clearing and Cleaning: Hydro jetting doesn’t just clear blockages; it cleans the pipe thoroughly, reducing the risk of future issues.
What Are the Benefits of Hydro Jetting?
Hydro jetting offers a range of benefits:
Thorough Cleaning: It clears blockages and scrubs the pipe walls, leaving them clean and debris-free.
Eco-Friendly: This method uses only water, avoiding harmful chemicals.
Long-Lasting Results: By removing all debris, it reduces the chances of future clogs.
Versatile: It can tackle grease, silt, sludge, roots, and even hardened deposits.
Cost-Effective: Fewer blockages mean less frequent maintenance and lower costs over time.
How Is Hydro Jetting Used?
Hydro jetting can be used in many situations, including:
Residential Drains
Perfect for clearing blockages in kitchen sinks, bathroom drains, and sewer lines.
Commercial Plumbing
Restaurants often face grease buildup, which hydro jetting can efficiently clear.
Municipal Sewer Systems
Ideal for larger pipes and systems, hydro jetting removes heavy debris, roots, and scale buildup.
Older Buildings
Older pipes with decades of residue benefit from hydro jetting’s thorough cleaning capabilities.
FAQs About Hydro Jetting
Can hydro jetting remove tree roots?
Yes! Hydro jetting can break through roots that have invaded pipes. In some cases, it may be paired with other tools to ensure complete removal.
Is hydro jetting safe for my pipes?
Hydro jetting is safe for most pipes. However, older or damaged pipes may not withstand the high pressure. An inspection will confirm if it’s suitable.
Does hydro jetting prevent future clogs?
Yes, it thoroughly cleans the pipe walls, preventing buildup and reducing the risk of future blockages.
How often should I schedule hydro jetting?
For preventative maintenance, once a year is a good rule of thumb. High-usage systems, like in restaurants, may need more frequent cleaning.
What happens if hydro jetting doesn’t clear the blockage?
If the issue is due to a collapsed pipe, hydro jetting won’t help. In this case, our team can assist with pipe repair solutions.
How Jetting Works in Sewer Lines
Sewer lines can become clogged with household debris, roots, and other materials. Hydro jetting clears these clogs effectively by:
Using high-pressure water to dislodge and flush out debris.
Cleaning the pipe walls to improve flow and prevent future buildup.
If your sewer line is slow or backing up, hydro jetting can restore it to full function.
