Why You Should Hydro Jet Your Drains
January 5, 2021
As a homeowner, we’re sure you’ve seen your fair share of clogged or slow-moving drains. Whether its due to coffee grounds, soap scum, or other inorganic materials, clogged drains can quickly become a headache. While store-bought cleaners and snakes can provide some temporary relief, how do you know you’re really cleaning your drains? Hydro jetting, of course!
What Is Hydro Jetting?
To put it simply, Hydro Jetting is a non-invasive plumbing solution that clears pipes by removing blockages effectively. Traditionally, clogged drains require quite a bit of work to clear. In some extreme cases, excavating may be required.
Today, one of the best ways to clear your plumbing system of a clog is by having a professional perform hydro jetting services. Hydro jetting is one of the best ways to clear a drain of virtually any clog. The hydro jetting process involves using highly pressurized water to blast away anything that may be found in your drain. While traditional clog removing methods only remove the clog, hydro jetting services ensure your full pipe and drain are cleaned. This leaves your system looking and working like new.
Hydro jetting can clear your drains and pipes of:
- Roots
- Grease
- Soap scum
- Food waste
- Mineral deposits
- Other common drain debris
Whether you’re dealing with the build-up of hair, soap scum, waste, grease, or other gunk, you can rely on hydro jetting services to completely clear the drain – as well as any residue that is left behind. Think of hydro jetting as the deep clean you’re plumbing system has been needing.
Benefits of Hydro Jetting
1. More Effective
The most important benefit of hydro jetting is how effective it is. While traditional methods like snaking and chemical solutions might work for some clogs, hydro jetting can work for virtually any clog you can find in your home’s system. From the kitchen to the bathroom, hydro jetting can clear any of your pipes with ease.
Additionally, not only does the process remove the current clog, but it also removes any residue left behind. This includes bacteria, which can lead to foul odors in your home. Hydro jetting services are designed to completely clear your pipes, so water can flow freely.
2. Eco-Friendly
Instead of using chemicals to clean your pipes, many of our customers choose hydro jetting due to the eco-friendly nature of the service. While it does use a lot of water, hydro jetting doesn’t require any type of chemical solutions to clean. Using the mere power of water, this method effectively cleans your home’s plumbing system. Since no chemicals are required, hydro-jetting is safe to be used on properties near lakes and rivers.
3. Non-Invasive
As mentioned before, some traditional pipe and drain cleaning services require a plumber to dig directly into a property to locate the clog. Hydro jetting proves to be an effective non-invasive plumbing method, eliminating the need to dig altogether. This non-invasive plumbing cleaning method allows us to snake the pipe down whatever opening is present.
4. Saves You Money
Since hydro jetting cleans the entire pipe, you are removing any other debris that may cause a clog. By heavily cleaning the pipe, future clogs are prevented. This helps save you money on repairs you would have had to fix in the future. Since our cleanings are deep, you won’t need drain cleaning services as often.
5. The Sanitary Solution
When it comes to plumbing, you and your plumber are dealing with some unsanitary conditions. While the plumber will be doing the dirty work, sanitation is still important. With traditional methods, there is a risk that debris and sewage can come into contact with your property or home’s water supply. The speed and effectiveness of hydro jetting means that this chance is lowered, plus less time will be spent working in your home’s plumbing system.
