How Hydro Jetting Works

High pressure water is sprayed inside a sewer or drain pipe using a specialized nozzle.

High pressure water jetting or hydro jetting is powerful enough to cut through tree roots and removes blockages and debris.

A sewer camera inspection is done first to determine what the problem is and whether hydro jetting is the correct solution.

After a sewer video camera inspection determines that hydro jetting can be used, a hose with a appropriate nozzle or cleaning head is pushed into the pipe and water jetting is done until blockages are removed and interior of the pipe is cleaned.

These are the procedures followed when we are hydro jetting, primarily in sewer main lines.

Benefits of Hydro Jetting

Complete Cleaning and Unclogging of Sewer Lines

Unlike other sewer line unclogging techniques like mechanical snaking, hydrojetting not only removes clogs but also thoroughly cleans grease, buildup, roots and bacteria from the interior of the pipe. Maintaining a clean pipe will prolong the life of your drain.

Tree Root Removal

Hydrojetting eliminates roots that block your pipes and can potentially cause damage to pipes.

No Digging Required

Hydro jetting can often be performed without digging your property, saving money and time. Rather than excavating to expose the sewer line, the high pressure water jetting hose can be inserted at one opening of the pipe and pushed through while applying a powerful spray of water until the line is completely cleaned and unclogged.

No Harmful Chemicals Are Used

No dangerous liquids or harmful chemicals are used during hydrojetting. Hydrojetting is an environmentally safe procedure.

Remove Bacteria from Sewer Pipes

Hydro jetting removes bacteria along with any grease buildup which can eliminate odors caused by bacteria from your kitchen or bathroom drains.

Advantage of Hydro Jet over Drain Snaking

The photo below shows the difference between snaking and jetting. Snaking is an effective process but hydro jetting works best for removal of difficult obstructions such as tree roots and solid objects that are lodged inside pipes. Hydro jetting also cpmpletely cleans the pipe interior and even removes bacteria.

Hydro Jetting vs. Drain Snaking

Hydro jetting differs from sewer rodding or using a mechanical snake, where a plumber uses a tool to power a hole through the buildup.

Hydro jetting uses a high pressure stream of water focused on the pipe walls to completely clean the pipes.

Performing Sewer Camera Inspection Prior to Hydro Jetting

Your professional sewer and drain contractor will use a specialized video camera to inspect the pipe for damage or breaks. By evaluating the camera inspection of the pipe the technician can determine if hydrojetting can be used and if so, choose the proper pressure and cleaning head for the job.
