Hydro jet drain cleaning is a cutting-edge plumbing method that makes use of high-pressure water jets to clear obstructions and clean the inside walls of pipelines. Unlike standard drain snaking, which simply punches an opening through an obstruction, hydro jetting entirely gets rid of debris accumulation throughout the pipeline system.
A proficient plumber inserts a specialized hose and nozzle into the drainpipe or drain line. The nozzle releases water at exceptionally high pressure– often approximately 4,000 PSI– which searches the pipeline inner parts and flushes particles out of the plumbing system.
Hydro jetting is commonly used for:
- Severe drain obstructions
- Drain line blockages
- Oil buildup in kitchen drain pipes
- Tree root intrusion
- Sludge and debris build-up
- Preventative drain upkeep
Since the process utilizes only water pressure, hydro jetting is environmentally friendly and safe for most plumbing systems when performed by skilled pros.
