Hydro jetting, also known as water jetting, is used by professional plumbers and industrial cleaning services to remove blockages from pipes utilizing high-tech equipment and high-pressure water hoses. A hydro jetting session may take place after a plumber inspects pipes with a video camera. If the technician identifies a blockage, he is likely to suggest snaking first, and then hydro jetting if this isn’t sufficient to clear the blockage. The benefits of hydro jetting are because it is cost-effective, environmentally friendly, and removes stubborn clogs.
There are five reasons to choose hydro jetting for your clogged or dirty pipes:
- Pipe Cleaning is Thorough
- Break Up Clogs Easily
- Remove Residual Grime, Dirt, Debris
- More Affordable than other Pipe Cleaning Methods & Effective Preventative Maintenance
- Environmentally Friendly
Pipe Cleaning is Thorough
Hydro jetting uses pressurized water streams that are forced through pipes to clear just about any clog that might occur – from industrial waste on a construction site to hair clogging a drain in someone’s home. Often pipes become clogged due to build-up on their interior surfaces. Pressurized water cleans this build-up to reveal unobstructed pipes. It is extremely efficient and thorough since most hydro jetting systems can rate 360 degrees as well as more in reverse to back out of pipes.
Break Up Clogs Easily
Hydro jetting can usually break up debris, dirt, mud, grime, oil, grease, and other hard-to-remove substances that tend to coat and clog pipes. In the process, bacteria, foul odors, and waste are taken out of a pipe system with ease. This method can even be used to remove tree roots from sewer lines. A technician can determine the best pressure to use for various situations. However, a range of 1500 pounds per square inch (PSI) to 4000 PSI is activated with a special nozzle that can rotate and clean the entire inner dimensions of a pipe.
For stubborn clogs or obstructions, higher PSI pressure can remove significant clogs, or break up natural matter.
Remove Residual Grime, Dirt, Debris
When a technician uses hydro jetting it can solve one-time obstruction problems and those that have accumulated over time. This can save time, money, and stress that can be caused by more invasive measures like digging or drain removal.
More Affordable than other Pipe Cleaning Methods
Hydro jetting is much more effective than invasive pipe cleaning methods and can save money when used as a preventative measure. When blockages are removed, repeated clogs, waste-water damage, burst pipes, and other issues that can result from blocked pipes are resolved. This saves many from paying for costly property damage, furniture repair, drywall repair, and other repair fees. Early attention to a possible clogged pipe can save thousands that might be required once a burst pipe or bigger issue is left to grow more troublesome.
Environmentally Friendly
This process is highly environmentally friendly since the main substance used to flush pipes is water. No harsh, toxic chemicals are needed. High-pressure water cleaning doesn’t harm the soil, air, groundwater, landscape, lakes, streams, or rivers. The runoff is just water. It can even help to protect the environment from a catastrophic pipe or sewer failure that can cause significant damage. The local ecosystem is kept safe and intact when hydro jetting is utilized.
The benefits of hydro jetting are significant and can address pipe blockages prior to larger plumbing problems developing. Hydro jetting results in less cost, less property damage, no environmental damage, and even the prevention of construction delays, depending on where the pipe obstruction has occurred.
